Demon Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 (edited) I made the brackets and I've finally started fitting them and the OTA after removing the little 11.5". I'll hopefully fit the mirror back in tomorrow, then fit poles and front section, then add counterbalance weights as I've had to move centre of mass back to stop collision. Then if clear have a view tomorrow night and see how it guides & goto... Edited December 21, 2022 by Demon 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demon Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 Got mirror cleaned. Then thankfully stopped raining for a bit. Moved mount to other side of obsy so just fits - not ideal but can leave assembled. Fitted mirror, poles and upper section. Added some counterweights, imaging camera, ed80 guidescope and all balances nicely. Started to rain again before all cabled up, can't wait to test goto and guiding. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demon Posted December 23, 2022 Author Share Posted December 23, 2022 (edited) Thanks Len, yep thought I'd need to add extension to obsy but amazed it just fits - really about 1 inch free front and back...
