I wanted a way to mount my phone into my telescope and use it as a finderscope, with the assist of Stellarium or SkySafari apps.

I already use QuadLock cases on my phone, so it made sense to use it.

I have mixed two designs together, one is the QuadLock 360 base Yamaha Tracer 700 quadlock adapter by RafCad and the Vixen / Synta dovetail to red dot finder adapter by bfreedland.

I have tilted the QuadLock 360 base by 30º, which is more or less the same angle as my finderscope mount, to maximise the QuadLock arm movement.

I am using the Quad Lock 360 Dual Pivot Arm to “fine tune” the aim between the mobile phone and the telescope.

Printed with support (see picture attached).
