Thanks to a run of clear nights, I gathered this data over four sessions, using my Esprit 100, ASI533MC and Optolong l-pro. This is the longest integration I've managed to date, with 515 x 120 sec. No Xtermintors used, I personally think they are detrimental. I'd rather have a noisy image than one "fixed" by AI.

I aquired 8 hours of dual band data for this one (should have been 11 but I cleared down a folder on the ASIAir without checking it first 💀 ). I'm not convinced I'm processing the channels correctly, I don't seem to get the cyan to pop. Thanks for looking.

I use Affinity Photo (https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/) as well as Pixinsight. It's got built in stacking and there are a host of astrophotography macros available here - https://jamesritson.co.uk/resources.html.
They often have a sale where you can pick it up for 1/2 price.

I contacted Lakeside and they put me onto the chap who wrote the driver. I said I was interested in trying it. Lakeside have now agreed to allow it to be incorporated into the INDI build, so good news there! I've tested it and it seems to work ok. I'll be testing it fully as soon as the sky allows.

Thanks Graham, I'll do that.

Does anyone know if they plan to include a driver for the Lakeside Focuser? I'd love to switch over to Linux but I'd rather not shell out just to replace a device that works.

Thanks Sarek! I used 30 dark flats and 30 flats. Same set for all 4 sessions as they were only days apart. The target is fairly faint, so 2 mins seemed reasonable. If I had the time, it'd be interesting to see if different sub lengths gave a better end result.
The subs are guided, I use ZWO AM5 mount with an ASIAir Plus.
