Celestron has discontinued Fastar compatibility on all 11" Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes. However, Starizona is offering kits to retrofit 11" telescopes with HyperStar-compatibility, the ability to easily remove the secondary mirror and replace it with a HyperStar lens for f/2 CCD imaging. This OTA includes the HyperStar-compatible secondary kit pre-installed. Please allow 3-5 additional days on order to allow for installation and testing.
