AFW-M

Received the above items quickly via Fedex (excellent)
Screwed everything together without any problems! OAG - EFW - CAMERA.
Tested in NINA and all good 👏

Filter wheel failed to calibrate while connected to Stellavita. Tried all three QHY drivers. None of them were accepted by the controller.

This is a nightmare scenario. I've spent countless hours using Touptek online resources, and also rewied many threads available on the web, by many who've experienced the same issue. Nothing, I mean, nothing works.

Will give it a go again when I have time.

This is a drawback for me and Touptek.

The filter wheel is working perfectly

The filter wheel was delivered extremely quickly and works really well with the StellaVita.

Filter wheel is working very well. I love the integration with camera and off-axis guider.

Very fast delivery, item works perfectly. Would buy again anytime.

Fonctionne correctement, mais n'ai pas reconnu en tant que roue à filtre touptek par le logiciel du boîtier stellavita.

It works well. Installing the filters and screwing the camera on is a bit fiddly. It's also difficult to thread the strap back through after removing the wheel to screw the camera on. But you only have to do that once.

Everything about this rotator is excellent. The build quality and finish are superb. The threads are well cut making it easy to fit items in the optical train and are the correct pitch to match industry standards.
It comes with a good selection of bolts and thread adaptors to suit most needs and even comes with a screwdriver!
The filter threads are well cut, making it easy to screw in any manufacturers filters.
Computer installation was very simple, no settings needed changing, it just works straight out of the box. I use it with NINA, very simple to add in the filter list.
It indexes smoothly and accurately, to easily select your chosen filter.
An impressive piece of kit and a must for anyone using filters.

There is only one isuue that IR LED inside work about 1s after device returns signa that filter is set and first frame, I added 1s deay after change filter action and it absolutly resolved the isuue. I hope in future it will be fixed, nevertheless works fine and stable.

Der AFW-M ist ein hochwertiges Teil, ist sehr präzise.

I was suprised about the good quality of this filter wheel - mechanically stable and metal, not cheap plastic!

The AFW seems to work just fine. Haven't tested it outside yet.

Excellent, good price, easy to use
Thanks Touptek

Das gelieferte Filterrad ist sehr wertig gebaut. Die Filter passen perfekt im Gewinde. Das implementieren des Filterrades in Nina hat auf Anhieb funktioniert. Ich würde das ToupTek Filterrad wieder kaufen.

I like the high prfessional quality of Touptek and the responsiveness of service and fast firmware updates when necessary. I will certainly continue to buy your products.

Can I mount 31mm filters on 8x1.25"wheel?
I can see there are screw holes in this option, and the screws are included but I don't see filter holder like there are in 36mm version.

I bought the filter wheel for my ToupTek IMX585 Mono and my ToupTek 36mm LRGBSHO filters.
It screws perfectly onto the camera and works without any issues.

Suggestions for improvement:

Include a cover for the holes on the telescope side.
The holes remain open if no OAG is used, allowing light to enter the system. There is a suitable 3D-printed part available, but having a proper cover included from the start would be a nice addition.

It would also be great if a short USB cable were included to connect the filter wheel to the camera without excessive cable clutter.
The long cable is unnecessary in this case and only causes issues.

Super pleased with this product, for the same price as a 5x1.25” EFW from ZWO you can get this! I would give it 5 stars however I think 4 stars is more appropriate because it doesn’t come with the brackets to hold 31mm unmounted filters, which is okay for me as I’m using 1.25” filters but for those with 31mm filters it is definitely a inconvenience not to have those come with the AFW

I got my wheel almost as scheduled, but that was due to my country customs. NINA recognized it right away. It came with an updated firmware that solves the LED light leakage. Movement is smooth, if not a bit noisy, but that doesn't bother me. The filters seem to center just fine in both uni or bidirectional settings (no backlash because of the friction drive). I did install a baader filter and it seems to fit just fine (I mention this because of a different comment on this page). The only downside I see with this filter wheel (and I understand why this choice was made) is that the connections are M54. Being a universal 1.25"/36/2" filter wheel, the frame must allow for the biggest filter option. I got the 1.25" version, so that hole seems extremely big. As a suggestion, it would be great if touptek could include a second M54 to T2/M48 adapter, but with a female T2 or M48 thread (since we already have a T2 to M48 adapter included. This could help if you're using a T2 camera/OAG combo (like a ZWO 183/294/533 or an SVbony camera. Also, some masks would be good for the screw holes. 5/5.

I wanted to like this product but I have been having issues. It randomly and unexpectedly starts to spin infinitely at NINA command to change filter. Like I mentioned, this behavior is random and I cannot narrow it down to a specific pattern. It works for a couple nights and then suddenly this happens. I tried with different USB cables as well as connecting directly to the camera hub or to the computer but the issue keeps happening in both cases so It must be the AFW itself. Needless to say how frustrating this is since I missed quite a few nights session because of this issue. I cannot use it any more and I cannot work with an unreliable product. I sent TOuptek an email for a solution either hardware wise or firmware wise. Otherwise refund/return option (perhaps I got a bad sample but I found forums where other people are having same issue).

Perfect :)

Works well , high quality. Disadvantage : Baader Filter ,even low profile ,do not fit.

AFW-M

I am very happy with the filterwheel, easy to install at NINA and building is very good. Nice piece of work and super fast shipping.THX ToupTek

This is the second item I have bought from ToupTek and on both occasions it has been absolutely faultless service, you get first class communication from start to finish delivery is very quick and both items have been able to track from start to finish in what seems to be real time and both arrived a day earlier than stated so all in all 100% recommended for product quality and service thanks ToupTek

Paiement Paypal. Reçu en 8 jours. Driver Ascom installé, il ne manque que les nuits étoilées.

The filter wheel is a good quality alternative. It worked out of the box, without any issues. I use it with N.I.N.A. And had no problems integrating it. It comes with cable, adapters, screws and a screwdriver.
