Optically, the telescope adopts an air-spaced triplet apochromatic design, incorporating a Super ED glass element. The APO PRO series provides excellent control of chromatic and spherical aberrations, even at very high magnifications. A mini flange is integrated near the objective cell, helping to improve the stability of the optical axis and focal plane, while also facilitating future maintenance and adjustments. In this upgrade, the rear CAA integrated with the optical tube in earlier versions has been removed to further improve mechanical axis stability. Instead, the telescope now features a newly integrated CAA (Camera Angle Adjuster) with laser-engraved angle markings, offering smoother and more precise operation. The focuser has also been redesigned, providing improved coaxial alignment and mechanical precision. For the mounting system, the telescope uses new dual tube rings with multiple threaded holes on the sides for convenient accessory mounting. It also includes mounting points for a counterweight bar, a standard astronomical narrow dovetail plate, and a patented handle compatible with both Arca and astronomical dovetail systems. The new 102GPS also features a shorter storage length compared with the previous generation, making it more compact and convenient for transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6245\/2965\/files\/D_569090d5-baec-4d17-afeb-80881ac096c6.webp?v=1789237974\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6245\/2965\/files\/D1_95303709-79e5-4e53-b038-a1184b20edf8.webp?v=1789237990\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6245\/2965\/files\/1_a16884c4-75e8-4c7d-ab0b-856a6a78365b.webp?v=1789238003\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e102mm F\/7 GPS (APO PRO) Telescope\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e102mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFocal Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e714mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFocal Ratio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eF\/7\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOptics\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAir-spaced triplet apochromatic design, includes a piece of Super ED glass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCoating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFMC (Fully Multi-Coated)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFocuser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.5-inch R\u0026amp;P dual-speed focuser with high-contrast, anti-scatter focuser tube to reduce stray light; rear integrates new CAA, standard 2-inch interface, includes 2\" to 1.25\" adapter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTube Rings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNew dual tube rings with multiple side-mounted threaded holes; mounting points for counterweight bar, standard astronomical narrow dovetail plate, and patented handle compatible with both Arca and astronomical dovetail systems\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBody\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminum alloy, retractable dewshield\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e~590mm (fully retracted); optical tube diameter 116mm; dewshield diameter 140mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6kg total (OTA 4.6kg)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePackaging\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminum case and double-layer cartons\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOptional\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.25-inch or 2-inch diagonal, 1x flattener, various astronomical standard interface eyepieces, binoviewer, etc.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIn the Box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-Sky Rover 102mm F\/7 GPS Telescope\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-Dust Cover\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWarranty \u0026amp; Manual\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/astronomyplus.com\/pages\/sky-rover-optics-warranty\" title=\"Sky Rover Warranty\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSky Rover's 2 years warranty.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sky Rover Optics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52809389768933,"sku":"SRO-98637","price":1763.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6245\/2965\/files\/Sanstitre2_54e05af8-ca55-44c6-9eae-abf74ccdc838.webp?v=1789240546","url":"https:\/\/astronomyplus.com\/products\/sky-rover-102mm-f-7-gps-telescope-98637","provider":"Astronomy Plus – Telescopes \u0026 Astrophotography Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
