Well, here in Tucson it’s now Monsoon Season. That means no Astronomy until late September when clear skies return (yes, I never get to see any of the summer delights).?

So my G-11 has already been packed away for a month and will likely stay that way for 2-3 more months.?

Question is that OK for the motors? Or should I get it out once in a while and just run the motors a little?

They will be fine packed away.? Try to minimise moisture...kinda impossible if your in Monsoon area.? Throw in some desiccant into the packing.

I bring in my "chunks" every day as a rule. (The CFO's rules) 8^0
But I can also assemble it in my home office/man cave so I can run it or play around with it.

If you could do something like that, store it inside and excersize it now and then, there would be no worries at all.

As long as you don't live in an aquarium.... ;^)

re Monsoon season in Tucson: Oh, yes.?

Although I don't live there now, I lived in Tucson for 20 years.?

The Official monsoon season begins on July 4, and continues through August. The typical pattern is that the morning sky is clear, then clouds begin to form over the Catalina mountains. By 2PM the sky is cloudy.

During that time you may get rainfall lasting about 10 minutes. The water is cold - 35-45 F. The temp cools from 105F or so to about 70F in a few minutes.?
Then the water begins to evaporate and the humidity skyrockets!
