Different tripod for the heck of it
I have used my G11 these past twenty years on a variety of different tripods.? The standard G11 tripod it came with is excellent.? The Berlebach wood tripod is easier to handle in snow. Less known

Re: Pier Adapter vs. Pier Extension
Oberon510’s picture shows the hand knobs at the top of extension and hex bolts on the adaptor. You can also switch these bolts so that extension stays attached to the RA rather than tripod/pier when

Re: G11T RA Clicking Sound
Thanks, John. I removed the RA axis cover and did not see anything amiss when slewing. It looked pretty perfect. I fiddled with the SLW. The sound is much fainter now. I don't think it is now

Re: Pier Adapter vs. Pier Extension

Re: Astroart 8 Not Calibrating / Guiding Gemini 1

Astroart 8 Not Calibrating / Guiding Gemini 1
Hello All. I have an issue with Astroart 8 and my G11 Gemini 1, specifically AA8 calibrating commands not getting to the mount, or that’s what it seems like anyway. I have a QHY5Lii guide camera

Re: G11T RA Clicking Sound
Hi George, A ticking while slewing does not necessarily mean a problem with tracking and guiding. Since you are in slew speed, it's hard to say where a 0.5s noise might be coming from. You may want

G11T RA Clicking Sound
I just received a new Titan axis upgrade for the Losmandy G11. It is a beautiful piece of kit. After balancing the axes and selecting the G11T in the hand controller, I moved the mount on both axes to

Re: G11G DEC Stall
Interesting you're dissatisfied with the 858D. I too have one of those plus additional nozzle. Don't use it for anything really sophisticated but find it quite well suited for the occasional job of

Re: Pier Adapter vs. Pier Extension
Joel, I did this same thing several years ago. I pulled the MAL adapter head off the tripod and bolted it to the top of my pier with the center bolt hole. However, I did use a rat-cage with two
