You're using an older version sky safari pro
-
I forgot to mention it's sky safari plus 7 and I preferred version 4 which I came from
-
I hadn't managed to get skysafari plus to connect since Android 14.

That sounds really promising for you

I think it was the drizzling, you might want to delete the file from your post as in time the post will lose edit and that is a lot of your space allocation eaten
-
That is a huge tiff, really huge, for me doesn't look normal
-
Could add setting circles on to the mount
-
That looks a very usable combination with comfortable observing position, enjoy

I's a tripod can be used for all sorts it's not end of life, it even has a use as a potential basic wedge.

I wonder if mine is similar as currently I'm not getting it to guide at all the star drifts off and I know you can guide atl-az just use one star not multiple in the settings and a centre or so star to minimise rotation
It's a summer project to open it so I'm following the replies here

Agree darks and bias but in testing with my data I'm undecided and had found dark flats ok

I think I figured out my mistake with the flats- I used a thin white shirt( only one layer) and I didn't take them with a bright light .
For flats, you'll need aperture, ISO and focus the same as your lights, look at the histogram use your shutter speed to get the histogram light peak in the middle.
Dark flats, cover the light source (lens cap), take dark flats as nothing else changes.
In Siril you can enter a number for a synthetic bias.

A fitting name for this nebula showing nicely

Hi
Have you checked each file to see if any of your lights have passing cloud as you might want to exclude those from your stack
-
I did but shucks you stashed a quote before my correction 🙂

Doesn't the redcat 51 have a petzval design eliminating a field flatenner?

I enjoy the mystery of looking through the dark patches to see a few stars behind this adds to the wonder of space and it's three dimension. Great image

Although I haven't used that mount I would extract left or right and up down but check your rate speed as it's hard to see low numbers. Can you hear it wanting to move? I'd contact the reseller

Have you done the switch off. Level and tube horizontal with open end pointing north and I think it probably wants the tube to be left mounted on the mount check the manual then switch on a start again

The Moon for me is below the horizon
APT Darkness Clock mobile app is great for quick Moon status

The planets and star lists etc change depending on what's in view for you right then

The same version as you
Telescope was connected, choose object on screen, selected slew speed 2 from 1-4 and then goto and mount slewed at a slower pace then normal I thought because it was quieter but I'll check it again.
Edit: I created a demo system preset to connect to so I could share where I found slew rate
