The Sun as you’ve never seen it before!

This spectacular composite brings together the intricate H-alpha surface of the Sun and its magnificent corona during totality, revealing two extraordinary layers of our star in a single image.

MLAstro One preliminary assembly is officially underway!!!

Things are starting to come together, literally!

The first MLAstro One units have now entered the preliminary assembly stage. After months of design, testing, refinement, machining, and countless small improvements, it’s incredibly exciting to finally see production hardware taking shape.

There’s still plenty of work ahead before these units are ready to leave our hands, but this is another major step toward getting MLAstro One into yours.

We’ll keep sharing updates as production moves forward.

MLAstro One is becoming real. One piece at a time.

Packaging tests for the MLAstro One are officially underway!
Building on everything we learned from the SAL-33, we decided the MLAstro One deserves an even better unboxing experience and better protection during its journey around the world.
Here's what we're upgrading:
• Thicker, stronger shipping cartons for improved impact resistance.
• Moisture-resistant coated boxes to better withstand the elements during international shipping.
• Thicker custom-cut foam inserts to keep every component securely protected.
• A power supply and carefully selected cables and adapters are now included, so you have everything that works best with the MLAstro One right out of the box.
Preliminary assembly begins late next week, and from there we'll be sharing regular production updates as Batch 1 comes to life.
It's getting real, and we can't wait to put the first MLAstro One mounts into your hands.

About one-third of the SAL-33 Wi-Fi antenna upgrade kits shipped out today, with the remaining kits scheduled to go out over the next two weeks. Tracking number for today shipment will be sent in the next few days when we have them.

We're working as quickly as we can to get this upgrade into everyone's hands. Thank you for your patience and continued support!

In this test, we put the MLAstro One through a quick real-world evaluation with approximately 33 kg of payload and no counterweight, focusing primarily on its GoTo accuracy.

Strain-wave drive mounts generally perform very well in this area thanks to the excellent repeatability of their gearboxes, and the MLAstro One is no exception. Even under this substantial and highly unbalanced load, the mount consistently slewed to the requested targets with impressive accuracy and repeatability.

This was intended as a straightforward demonstration of how the MLAstro One performs under a demanding payload configuration. The ability to carry a substantial setup without a counterweight can be especially valuable for visual astronomy and grab-and-go configurations, where faster setup, easier transport, and fewer components can make a significant difference in the overall observing experience.

Pop the champagne, guys! 🥂

The 1st production batch of MLAstro One is officially SOLD OUT!

There are still a few unpaid orders pending payment, but as far as I’m concerned, Batch 1 is sold out.

Batch 2 is now open, with shipping currently estimated for late January 2027.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for the very first production run.

Early Adopters will always hold a special place at MLAstro. You put your trust in us from the beginning, and we’ll do everything we can, and then some, to make sure you’re happy with your purchase.

That’s a promise.

Last Call for MLAstro One, 1st Production Batch!

Only 3 units of MLAstro One are still up for grabs, and these are the very last units available from our first production batch.

If you want your MLAstro One to ship in 2026, this is your last chance. Once these three are gone, orders will move to the second production batch, with delivery likely extending into January 2027.

For our MLAstro SAL-33 customers, we'll also be sending out the Batch 8 pre-shipment emails tonight. Please keep an eye on your inbox!

Thank you everyone for the incredible support!

MLAstro SAL-33 Production Update

A quick update on Batch 7 and Batch 8:

Batch 7:
Most of Batch 7 has now been handed over to the courier, with just a handful of units remaining. The rest are scheduled to go out later this week. If you haven’t received your tracking number yet, expect it to arrive in your email by early next week at the latest.

Batch 8:
Assembly is picking up speed! We’re currently targeting mid-August for the first Batch 8 units to start shipping, with the goal of having the entire batch out the door before the first week of September.

As always, we’ll keep things moving as quickly as we can while making sure every SAL-33 is properly assembled and tested before it leaves us.

Thank you everyone for your continued support!
