The Skyquest XT classic (black tube) still lists the focuser as a rack and pinion.


I don't necessarily intend to raise this thread from the dead, but since it's linked from a sticky, I figure correct information trumps the bad juju of thread necromancy.

As an FYI, the Orion SkyQuest XT10 Classic now comes with a 2" Crayford focuser.
