Hi Andre, It seems unlikely your main bearing inside the Dec ring gear could have gone bad inside such a short use period of only a few years. There is often some play in bearings when there is no

Mitsumi has 5 models of 6010ZZ (ZZ denotes non contact/shielded type). Models differ by load strength, quality, etc. They should have German distributor.

Hey Chip, thanks for your explanations! Ordering parts from Losmandy directly is a bit of a hassle from Germany. Shipping is quite expensive compared to the cost of the parts and dealing with the

Hi Andre, The bearing is contaminated.? You might get it c

Hi, I'm André and new to this group. I've got my G11G for about two years now. It's the one with the tucked in motors and the spring loaded worm block. Some nights ago it developed some major

Great to hear! Glad it worked. Enjoy your celestial alignment. :)

I changed it to 5 and it worked perfectly. Thanks again Ryan!

You struck a chord with me right here. These things are always a constantly changing journey for me. I worked hard to have a successful career primarily for my family, but also to support how I

Mike, try on Monday. They were at NEAF/NEAIC this past week, and should be back at the office next week.

Thanks Ryan, I'll give that a try.

The reason is that the gemini does not have intermediate rates. You have Guide (generally 0.5x sidereal), center (maybe 20x sidereal) and slew (800x) sidereal. Slew is 3.342 degrees per second... if

I believe the TPPA defaults to 3 degrees per second. That triggers the Centering Rate with the Gemini Slew. Change the "Telescope Move Rate" to 4 degrees per second and that should fix it. Let us

I have a question about slew rate in TPPA. I have a Losmandy G11T using the updated Gemini 2 driver. When using TPPA the scope slews to the first position at what ?think is a normal rate. However

Found some helpful information on the clutch thrust bearing here by John Kmetz. /g/Losmandy_users/message/83601 Seems the AZ8, GM8, G9 and G11 all use the same bearings. " Then there

Hi all, from the imperially challenged other side of the world (South Africa). I have an AZ8 acquired from local astronomer enthusiast Douglas Bullis https://issuu.com/douglasbullis with a beloved

Russ, While I have not used the Gemini equipped version the AZ8 is basically a GM8G turned vertically.? It will work as expected for visual use but for imaging field rotation will be an issue as it
