Will try this makes sense it’s not planetary at 100 fps , lost 4 images last night out of 60 not counting cloud cover. Thanks Tim.

It’s looks so neat , no chance of snagging, I lost 5, 180 subs from 80 exposures, (unfortunately 3 in 1 channel) , I’ll test direct but not sure if the chance snagging is worse than loosing some images.

Thank had a good look might change somethings around

Less than 3m just about, bought a reasonably expensive one, but who knows they claim to be good .. Don’t know it’s it’s using all the usb 3 ports on the mount , going to move the Zwo guider to the usb 2 port to the left and it that doesn’t help plug the Primaluce gotto focuser into a usb2 to only run usb 3 with the camera

Just checked Nina setting my usb limit was set at 0 , read online should be 40 ( for Zwo)don’t know if this will stop since the change of settings I’ve had 7 more 180 subs come out ok. dose anybody know what this setting is for , is it download speed or capacity or am I barking up the wrong tree

See photo this happens every so often, using usb 3 from onboard hub on Ioptron 120 then straight into pc..pleas excuse the large dust moats

70 x 3mins subs in narrowband with zwo 2600mc over 2 night with skywatcher esprit 150, stacked and processed with pixinsight.

out for 3hrs last night lost the last 1/2 hrs work of light due to forgetting to turn on dew heater, tried without any light pollution filter so as is .m51.bmpm51.bmpm51crop.bmp

redone with less over the top processing.

galaxy_clone1.bmp now a little too purple

1st go in pixinsight was happier with the image 5 steps earlier over done it but quite alright with the end product . steep leaning curve will back to original uncropped image and start again..

Thanks again it’s a little more involved the my Zwo plus but I’ll get to grips with it eventually

The mount connects but I’m getting this error an I doing something wrong.
