Michael, The new USB to Serial adapter worked!!! I don't know more than the basics about electronics so I'm glad you recommended trying the cable first. Of course this all started while trying to do

Hi Liam! I got into this Astromaddness specifically for imaging. And I decided I'd need to be guiding before I began ordering anything. I did try two Off-Axis Guiders before I finally gave up on that

Hi Rahul! OK, everybody has slightly different methods, And why not, we all have slightly different equipment. ;^) Here's mine, not to confuse, but to give you another idea that may work easily for

Liam, A partial answer: The GM8 RA drive uses a ring gear with 180 teeth around it. The GM811 and G11 use a 360 teeth gear that is about 2x the diameter of the GM8 design. The larger ring gear with

For a moment, if I take imaging out of the equation. I don't understand even after polar aligning the mount , mount in CWD postion why two star alignment won't work 100%? I want to fix this first

Well, no, I haven't done this. Where I live our winter is usually 1-3 days when it might get down to freezing, 32° F. I believe is was 2 days this year, first week in January. So I know my house

Hi Mark, Good points. Some thoughts... a long email. Until now I have ignored the gearbox as an area that could "freeze up". I just bought 2 new gearboxes at the factory this week. These are my first

Thank you Brian , Michael. I am going to re-watch Gemini-2 videos for now. Will post back here if I can't get accurate PA.

As michael mentioned, it just has magnets inside -- Brian Brian Valente portfolio brianvalentephotography.com <http://brianvalentephotography.com>

I am looking to setup an EAA rig for live stacking at outreach events (I am new to astrophotography). I am leaning toward using an autoguider to maximize the number of usable frames and allow for

Hi Rahul well. Do I need to set time manually? it does, but it does not determine timezone. you need to set that manually Brian -- Brian Brian Valente portfolio brianvalentephotography.com

Thanks Michael.

David, Kudos for you doing this engineering experiment. A friend is bringing over his Celestron AVX next week because it became unmovable in our last cold spell here in Northern Illinois. I'm

No gears are inside the servo motor...but there is the "pinion" gear to drive the gearbox glued to the output end of the drive shaft. The gears for reduction are in the gearbox. The pinion gear on the

Rahul, The difficulty I find is with "daylight savings time" and the 1 hour uncertainty it creates. It is far preferred to set the UTC time, and then your longitude and latitude work properly. On the

Thank you Michael. For a moment, if I take imaging out of the equation.? I don't understand even after polar aligning the mount , mount in CWD postion why two star alignment won't work 100%? I want

I have imaged at ~25F without any major issues but I am running at 15.2 volts.

As the title says.? Do they have gears?

Hi David Have you used your mount at these temps or is it the freezer experiment? One of the best things you can do is increase the voltage towards the higher end, 15-18v. you can also reduce your
