Sorry to jump in here.
I just received an autofocuser from FLO (amazing service, ordered wednesday night).
I obviously haven't fitted it yet, but my thumb/fingers are already hating the knob on the handset to adjust speed. Has anyone changed it for a thumb screw or bigger knob? Is this possible?

P.s These instructions are ridiculous haha

If it is a 200p dob make sure you havent got the 2 inch adapter screwed in as well. Just the bit the eyepiece goes into, screwed directly into the focuser.

Surprised I only just read this but what a fantastic post James !
My only comment would be that when stacking DSLR images, it often produces a white outline around the moon. This used to wind me up.
I learnt (from someone else on twitter) that before aligning, if you click on 'show advanced controls', then uncheck 'predict track'...there will be no bright white outline!
I suppose you can also use the deringing tool in wavelets.
Not quite sure what effect 'predict track' has but with centred and cropped images from PIPP it has prevented the white outline, for me at least.
Just my 2 cents
