Product Information

Overview

In order for any star tracker to work the way it's designed, polar alignment has to be done in the first place. It is the act of aligning the rotation axis of a star tracker in parallel with Earth's self-spin axis. How do you know when your Move Shoot Move Star Tracker's rotation axis is aligned? Well, the Polar Scope we have here does just that!

Polar Scope A Package For NOMAD

This polar scope Kit is for the NOMAD tracker, it includes:

  • Polar Scope A
  • Polar Scope Mount for NOMAD
  • Fluorescent illuminator (looking like a white tube)

Note: This polar scope is the newest polar scope which can work in both hemispheres, the inner reticle is for the users in the Northern hemisphere and the outer icon is Octans which is for the users in the Southern hemisphere. Please check this here to know more about how to use it: https://www.moveshootmove.com/pages/how-to-use-the-polar-scope-a-with-octans-reticle



Polar Scope A Package For MSM

If you only have an MSM Star Tracker, which means you don't have a Pointer, a polar scope mount or a polar scope illuminator, this is the go-to package for you. It includes all the accessories needed to do polar alignment on an MSM Star Tracker:
  • Polar Scope A
  • Universal Mount Combo
  • Fluorescent illuminator 

 

How to use Fluorescent illuminator?

Please use your headlamp or phone light to shine the light first, the paper inside will absorb the light and then glow in the dark. If you want to test it before going out, please test it in a dark room.

This is the example of the lightened image of polar scope A

Polar Scope Mount for NOMAD,

If you are an MSM user wanting to upgrade your tracker to NOMA and you are wondering, will my polar scope work on NOMAD?  Yes, your polar scope can work on NOMAD by this polar scope mount.


Universal Mount Combo (For MSM tracker only)

This universal mount combo is only for MSM tracker, it could not work with NOMAD as the tools attaching ways are changed. If you want to attach the polar scope to NOMAD, please get the polar scope mount. If you want to attach laser to NOMAD, please get laser adapter to NOMAD.

      MSM Nomad with Polar Scope and Alyn Wallace V-Mount

      Incredible products and great service! I am still in the early learning stages of astrophotography, recently decided to add a star tracker, and after watching reviews on many different trackers and mounts I liked what I saw with Nomad. It has definitely lived up to the hype! Thank you!

      excellent addition

      I picked up the polar scope as an add on to my Nomad tracker. VERY handy to get final precise alignment in combination with a phone app that tells me where to place polaris on the circle. My scope does not have the same "clock" numbers as the training video, so I'm hoping I'm orienting it correctly... we'll see on longer lens shots of galaxies.. But it is worth having to align perfectly.

      Powerful compact tracker!

      I took this out for the first time in Yellowstone and it was so easy to set up and use. The only issue I had was with the new scope and laser holder. Since it attaches much closer to the tracker, I had to adjust my camera and Z plate so they did not obstruct the path of the laser. All in all, a great tracker!

      polar scope light accessory

      Great product, very effective when it comes to being able to work just by illuminating the scope a little without the need for batteries. More comfortable than the previous u LED light that was annoying to install and broke easily, great product improvement, very happy

      NOMAD tracker

      The product arrived well packaged and with no damages. I did first trials with wide-field lenses (14 mm, 20 mm and 24 mm). The photos have been sharp with no trailing up to 120 s. I will take the Nomad tracker to La Palma in the next step. According to Richard Tatti´s YT video I did some recommended changes.

      Great Improvement

      The polar alignment has been simplified to a very easy process with the lader find and polar scope, tracking down to between one and two arc secs

      Continue to be happy with MSM products

      I recently added the polar alignment scope and right angle bracket. I'm very happy with their products and their service, support gets back overnight when I've had questions.
