It's Tall
My wife is only 5'3" but the scope dwarfs most people.

Observatory Extension
The observatory wall needed to be pushed out a bit to
accommodate the size of the RC.
Tight Fit
The scope actually clears the wall by 3 inches.
The Officina Stellare Scopes
The 1056 Refractor and RC 400 IM-T waiting for
dark atop the Paramount ME.
The Officina Stellare RC 400 IM-T ME Edition arrived at my office on March 1, 2008 along with an Officina Stellare 1056 Refractor. Both scopes were expertly packed in custom cases and looked perfect. I assembled the RC trusses with the help of a friend in about an hour but it took three of us to lift and slide the RC onto the ME versaplate The RC weighs about 85 lbs. without an imaging train and is just over 4 feet long.
