Everything you need to build a PiKon telescope including 3D printed parts (but not Raspberry Pi and Camera). So if you don't have access to a 3D printer and own a Raspberry Pi computer and Pi Camera, this is the kit for you.
The PiKon telescope has been around for almost 8 years and in that time, the Raspberry Pi organisation has introduced 2 new cameras and several iterations of the Raspberry Pi computer. So to avoid confusion, we are introducing the PiKon Platinum which includes all the nuts and bolts you’ll need whatever camera you have. Unless you are upgrading an existing PiKon, you no longer need to buy the Camera Adaptor Kit.
The PiKon High Quality Camera Adaptor is also included. Designed to upgrade the PiKon with the new Raspberry Pi camera with 12.3 megapixel, Sony IMX447R sensor. The adaptor allows the new camera, which is slightly larger, to be mounted on the existing PiKon camera mount.
