Just curious how many ServoCAT users are creating Astro Photos. Here is my UC18 Obsession telescope and my DS287m camera making a mosaic of the Witch's Broom via the optolong LeNhance filter. Richard

PIFinder is a nifty device but not what you are looking for.? I have a similar device called skysolve.? Neither tell your telescope how to correct it's position.? Instead they just tell the human

I am still trying to get the falcon rotator to work with my optical train setup. I have a starizona nexus connected to telescope side of the falcon then other side has 16.5mm spacer, 11mm spacer and

Hi Richard, Platesolving with the ServoCAT (and Nexus DSC) can be done using Keith Venable’s eFinder. I have built my own version, and the results are very good: The object is always nicely centered

Mickey, I found Rock's comment on Derotators. Re: Field Derotator? (groups.io) (

Thanks Mike. I do have the ASCOM device hub running so I should be able to copy your setup. Thanks, Richard

Hello Mike I'm piggy backing this conversation as I am trying the same thing. Do you find the derotator helps with longer exposures? If your DOB has a power ground board how do you connect the power

Richard, I regularly utilize plate solving using ASTAP from within Sharpcap Pro with my servocat equipped 18” f/4 dob. Robin the creator of Sharpcap constantly provides amazing new features that

One of my favorite features of the ServoCAT is the spiral search.? This really helps me quickly overcome my mount errors. My mount errors don't bother me too much as I just hop from one object to

Happy to help Steve. And thanks to your friend Bill as well. From what I understand the wire gauge selected for the long cable (you had said you measured it at 26') was pretty small as well - Bill

I will, thank you Richard, I should have posted this question on the MC group site as well and will once I view this discussion. I forgot that you were or are using the Argo. Thank you Mickey Huffman

Thank you Wes, if you would like better results using your DOB for imaging, try using the Deep Sky Lucky Imaging technique. High gain very low exposure as in 1 to 3 seconds depending on the object.

We have found the issue with our scope not being able to slew with both motors at the same time. The solution was two-fold: 1. The length of cable from the power brick to the scope was too long, about

Mickey, Check out this discussion of the 2 ASCOM drivers for ServoCAT. [email protected] | Has Anyone Successfully Connected to/Used a ServoCAT ASCOM Driver? (

Following , I have the servocat Argo combo driving my SDM pimped Obsessed 20” F5 # 305. I achieve 4-5 sec subs with 50% roughly keepable subs and would like to improve on that . Using it visually it

I am new to the group. It was suggested that I ask the group this question. I have a 22" star structure Dob that is set up for imaging using the Nexus DSC system with the Servocat. It was suggested

Gary: the list you sent me to troubleshoot my issue was great. I did not have to remove the pivot plate. I lifted it up and it sprang down. Now the power does not cut out as it used to. Must have been

Fellow stargazers and ServoCAT owners... its probably fully known now that the business was sold to BRC Astro back in May. Bill is busy getting all the items on order and getting up to speed - the

Just an FYI. Steve's scope is vintage '07. I don't know if it has the redundancy spring I added to the design of the PGB system. Nor has it ever been 'cleaned' (over time it's good to take the ground

Another point. The power source may not be the issue . Voltage drop is another cause. This can happen from a high res joint or the size cable doesnt match the current that is being drawn. . Cheers
