This was the unit I was going to buy over a year ago but I went with the more portable Star Adventurer. Of late I have noticed my bigger lens the unit was not able to track properly so it was bite the bullet and start all over again. The good part all the learning will come in real handy and all the parts are interchange able. So starts a whole lot more learning not the manual parts I know from the other tracker which is just the same. I want to set up the camera and lens much like a Telescope completely supported. This is not the final set up as I started this at the wrong time in the middle of Covid 19, parts I need are all over seas. As there is not much movement I just have to wait so dont think there will be images tomorrow. once I get the battery to run this unit I will try from home moon or no moon or pollution as well. Plus it helps me see just how the electronic parts work as well. I believe in two months I will start having fun again with the 300mm F4 and the 150-600mm Tamron lens the heavy lens. As you can see I am planning on being around a bit longer....

A new year and a Whole lot of learning
