HI Derek, I try my best...but since I've repeated that list a few times this year...yes...it's time to make a PDF and just point to that. I can add screen shots too... another benefit. I rely wish I

Have had my G11 for about 2 years and have had pointing problems since about first 8 months in. Have had paddle and control box rehabbed twice and now both are undergoing a full reworking. I'm sure

Still looking if someone can measure the depth of the threaded blind holes used to attached a saddle to the DEC head on any GM8 or GM811. Stephen Pizzo (good guy to deal with) had sold a number of his

This is a brilliant solution to reducing carrying weight, providing more clearance, and at the same time making it simple to remove/replace the DEC axis. David

Good comments Chip, My unit is the GM811, so its "GM8" DEC axis already has the tucked in motors (which I agree are very nice) and the new OPWs. Also I purchased the GM811 and had Scott put on the RA
