Tuning - General
This is your starting point for precision tuning a Newtonian telescope.
We’ll use the Skywatcher Quattro 150 as an example, but the principles apply to almost any design. Details may vary slightly between manufacturers – but the core idea stays the same: stability, precision, performance.
And here’s the good part: You don’t have to follow every step. Want to just swap out the secondary spider? Go for it. Skip the rest and move straight to what matters for you.
Tuning isn’t reserved for professionals – with the right guidance, every astronomer can unlock more from their telescope.
