Sky-Watcher Virtuoso 127 GTI Tabletop Dobsonian Telescope
$1,125.00
127 mm optics on a compact tabletop GoTo base.
The Sky-Watcher Virtuoso GTi 127 is a Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope for visual astronomy. Its short tube and app-controlled tabletop mount suit lunar and planetary observing in a compact setup.
127 mmaperture
Collect light for visual observing
The front lens and folded mirror system forms the image you view through an eyepiece. Sky conditions still set the detail you can resolve.
1500 mmfocal length
Choose magnification with the eyepiece
Magnification is telescope focal length divided by eyepiece focal length. Start at low power to find and centre a target, then increase it when the air is steady.
GoTomount
Wi-Fi finding and tracking
Align the telescope first, then select a target for the mount to locate and track.
A long focal length in a short tube
The Maksutov-Cassegrain folds the light path inside a short tube. This keeps the 1500 mm focal length in a compact package, while the front meniscus closes the optical tube.
Using the Virtuoso GTi 127
Manual movement between targets
Freedom Find dual encoders let you move the telescope manually while retaining its alignment.
Phone control
SynScan Pro on iOS or Android connects to the telescope over Wi-Fi. A phone or tablet is required for app control.
Good to know
Use a stable observing surface
This is a tabletop telescope. Place the base on a rigid, level table or platform at a comfortable viewing height.
Power the GoTo mount
The mount requires 12 V DC. A suitable external power source is required.
Keep the Sun out of the telescope
Never point the telescope or finder at the Sun. Unfiltered sunlight can cause permanent eye damage.
Five-year Australian warranty
Sky-Watcher covers defects in materials and workmanship for five years from purchase. The warranty is non-transferable and requires proof of purchase in Australia or New Zealand.
Damage caused by misuse, improper handling or installation, or unauthorised servicing is excluded. Follow the model instructions for routine alignment and maintenance, and consult the full warranty terms for exclusions.
