Thanks Bill. I actually put the APO in one of the Rigids. The Stanley supports the misc gear. Don’t know why I wrote the other way...Just getting old I guess. Weather was great first night and I took

Good day Dave, Thank you for the compliment. I have seen your work for a while. I plan on getting more into DSOs when my planet season is over. The weather has been hindering me from practice J. I am

Good day Harry, Stability: 1. No issues so far. 2. No slippage or weird sounds from the mount when slewing or tracking objects. 3. Tripod legs are fully extended 4. No vibration pads 5. Unleveled angl

Hi Jerry, I seem to recall hearing that in one of the YouTube live vids recently... Would the motor still run, but just not have enough oomph to turn the larger gears? Sent from my T-Mobile 4G LTE Dev

RC6's all weigh like 10-12 lbs. Im looking into off axis guiding and I already have a DSLR with an APS-C sized chip running 4.7 micrometer pixels for imaging. Apparently, this chip size is recommended

Brian Hehe sorry I didn’t mean to offend you. Yes the polar scope must be collimated to the ra axis of the mount. It is necessary for its line of sight to be a true indicator of the ra axis pointing..

Agree chaps, I particularly like the idea of the Polar scope adapted adaptor. Hopefully Jerry and his colleagues will develop this for when I am ready to make the leap to guiding! Kind regards, Brian

Hello everyone, I’ve been following this group for a while now, trying to learn the ins and outs of astrophotography with my EXOS2 gt Mount. I took this photo last weekend with my William optics Space

Hi Koen! If it must not be a powerbank from Explore Scientific , have a look at Amazon. There I find many powerbanks, that have also 12V output. Look at this one: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B07QGC1MBC/r

Hi Trav, The planets and minor planets move slowly and are effectively tracked at the Sidereal rate, the same as the stars. Only the Sun and Moon show any appreciable movement over the typical session

Jerry, That did it! I had the mount track 9 min past the meridian and the flip went perfectly. Thanks again for your help.

I think it is time to lock this thread. There are plenty of other forums that are more relevant to DSLR intervalometers and what the best one is for any particular use. Sorry.

Hi Nihar, The PMC-Eight controller on power up sets the motor counts to zero internally in the firmware. This is reasonable because there is no assumption that the mount's physical clutches have not b
