What do we need?

Since the original ASIAIR (the first generation) was released in 2018, one of our primary goals has always been removing the learning curve struggles, making astrophotography fun, easy and accessible to every astronomy amateur. The new ASIAIR Plus added many new features compare to ASIAIR PRO, such as the dual-band antenna, real-time power monitoring and USB-C port, etc. However, that’s far from enough, we wish to continue to improve ASIAIR Plus and bring the wonder of astrophotography to more people – that’s why we need your help.

Here are what we need from our Experience Officers:

1. Reviews: Both articles or videos will be fine, or some Facebook & Instagram posts, threads in astronomical forums…
2. Feedback & suggestions: You are very welcome to tell us your feedback at any time when you are using ASIAIR Plus.

Some tips for our Experience Officers:

1. Keep us informed of what you have done for ASIAIR Plus

It is necessary to let us know after you publish your reviews on the Internet. You can contact us at una@zwoptical.com to tell us what you do for ASIAIR Plus. Some URLs directly leading to the web pages will be very helpful for us to check the content. Also, if you are writing posts on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, please add the hashtag #ASIAIRPlus so that we can find your posts without getting lost in the massive online traffic.

2. The theme of your reviews must be ASIAIR Plus

The reviews, no matter in what forms, articles or videos or online threads or something else, whose topic should always be ASIAIR Plus.

3. Better to join the ASIAIR Facebook group

It is recommended for all ASIAIR Plus Experience Officers to join the ASIAIR Facebook group to get more information of ASIAIR Plus, to communicate with other users, and to be timely informed of the latest news & announcements from ZWO.

4. Apply before 9/15/2021
