Hi, Just to add my two cents, I too use the i-EXOS 100 with the fine AZ adjuster on the EQ5 mount. It has made a world of difference, works flawlessly and fits perfectly. Now it’s a joy to use the mou

Don, Glad it worked out. Interested to know if you have any binding issues with all the backlash taken out. Also, I had the same issue not being able to turn the screw on the worm gear bearing block.

For everyone, did the ASCOM drive work normally? Without crashing? I've tested it on two machines and the problem is the same for me.

Apre, You are not alone! I have used the bubble level to polar align and a spirit level. They show different results so, something has to be improved on there. I align my polar alignment scope with th

Hi Harry, I believe that it will continue to track at sidereal rate as mine does. Cheers, Ian

Hi, my experience using the iEXOS 100 over the last couple of years has been excellent. It is a learning curve for sure but by trial and error and with the excellent forum groups available with excell

Parag As Ian stated the relative pointing of the camera is not important to the mount’s ability to provide you tracking along the path of stars. Alignment is however important for your mount to accura

I have extra counterweights and have used it with the standard tripod with up to a deforked C8. It will be quite shaky when focusing with that much weight but for visual it can do it. If you purchase

Parag Modi: Like Jacqui already said, there is an M8 screw in the base of the tripod. Remove this screw and my design attaches to it with an M8x25 mm cylinder head screw. My design has a recess for th

Thanks Wes. That’s what I was thinking given it’s a reflection nebula. I tried to process to pick up the dust lanes but to no avail.

i sent you a email Salvo. if you could respond that way we can resolve this issue. do you have any guiding logs at all that will help me better determine what's going on. even my mount has PEC as well

I don't think the amount of weight factors in too much as I first noticed the motion using the ETX90 where two counter weights at the very top of the bar will balance it. The second video Mario posted
