Here's what may be a silly question. I recently received my G11 and bought the JMI version of the polar alignment scope for it since it was available now. Is anyone else using the JMI version? If

Welcome, Girolamo! I suspect the play in your DEC shaft, and its inconsistency, is caused by two things: 1) A small amount of play between the worm and the worm wheel (gear); and 2) A small amount

I am an Italian amateur astronomer. I have a problem with my brand new G11. Since the day one, I noticed a play in the declination axis. It becomes very evident when the saddle plate is rotated at a

So that's what the "O" rings were for...I never installed mine and have not had a problem, should I install them? As far as your problem I would check again and make sure all the components are on in

Does anyone know of a source for undersized needle bearings to fix a weakness in my Losmandy G11 mount? Specifically, 1.247" ID / 1.500 nominal OD. For the benefit of those who may encounter the same

Hello, I am a new member to the list, glad for the opportunity to talk about the Losmandy mount. Has anyone changed the main gears in the losmandy head to something like Byers or another quality

The Gemini Goto system will support up to 32768 counts per revolution. Regards Peter Ward. P.S. Early Losmandy encoder kits did suffer from some encoder movement when the either clutch knob was

Thanks for the information. I'm particularly interested in the encoder support. If I understand you correctly, the scope can be moved manually, the GoTo functionality continues to work as before

Hello Group, There seems to be some less than accurate comments about the Losmandy GoTo system so here is a quick summary of what it can do: The Gemini system comprises 2 new servo's, hand paddle
