Tony - I'd say it's 'pretty' tight, I'd estimate maybe 0.5mm of clearance (very rough guess from last time I had it apart).? In fact, I tried to make use of that wiggle room on the DEC axis to move

I had been wondering this same question... so with the 3 hole pattern you can’t do 180 like on the current production mounts without additional work, but could you do 120°?

Ahhh!!!? OK, Got it.? Do you happen to know if the plate is a tight fit to the large brass bushing?? Or are the screws themselves used to locate the worm plate.? If the large bore locates the

I've attached a photo of the worm mounting plate from my G11 which hopefully shows you the 3 countersunk screws I mean (bearing block holes are to the right just out of view).? The rest can be also

Hi Keith - It didn't occur to me either at first.? Took a while of fiddling with the motor brackets I have while wondering how Losmandy fit their motors without hitting the altitude knob, then

Yes, that was a very creative solution, David. You probably saved some money by not shipping a big piece of iron across the Atlantic Ocean. For my mount I use the standard 7, 11 and 21 pound weights

Hi Tony.? I'm embarrassed to say that until you pointed it out, I'd never noticed Losmandy swapped sides on the newer tuck-motor mounts (I have an older)!? I don't think you can reverse the plate on

Hi Michael, Thanks for your help once again. I don't mean to put the worm drive under the mounting plate.?? I'm looking to rotate the mounting plate itself 180 degrees so the motor is at the back of

Tony, No one has done that... You cannot put the worm under the mounting plate as it must drive the ring gear teeth above the plate. The tucked motor version only moved the fmgearbox and motor under

Hi all, got a quick question.?? I have an old G11 with the two piece worm blocks, where the RA motor is located on the bottom (towards the altitude knob).? Is it possible to switch the RA worm and

Just found some Jet-Lube MP-50 on Ebay. $20 for a pint plus shipping in the US. Previously I was finding larger containers at higher prices. I am planning to use this on my next worm relubrication -

Brian - good point " I prefer to keep my Losmandy powered from a? ground source, it's one less cable that may catch " ------------------------ Jim W Phoenix, AZ. USA

Hi Jim, One more critical factor: balance! and total scope load. If in good balance, my mounts take: 0.35 to 0.55 amps per motor to slew at fastest speed. So to Park (both motors slew at fastest

Hi Jim it varies depending on the load and balance, but generally I've found 1.5amps max is about right. I have a powerbox ultimate (didn't know about the micro version) and while I think it would

I know the max current depends on voltage (12 vs 15) and overall load on the mount but has anybody measured the current while slewing using a 12 volt supply?? I am trying to determine if the Pegasus

Hi Paul How will Gemini respond when it gets a pulse duration that is shorter than the minimum movement for a given gear/servo combination? Will it a) ignore the pulse? b) issue a minimum pulse?

Ok, that's fine. Just tell me at which mile post on Highway 101 you dropped yours. I don't want to give away a piece of junk someone else dropped at a different location. In the meantime, I'll be
