this is the cheapest option otherwise a 2nd hand 50mm SW finderscope then adaptor to modify it. The 50mm finders do come up now and then

+ an adaptor for the finderscope if going skywatcher 50mm finder conversion to attach the camera, see

have a look at an old app newt I've attached a copy for you to play with to calculate offset newt25.zip

Alan +1 I have one

what scope are you planning on using or photo lens? modded or unmodded Dslr?

https://hamradiostore.co.uk/catalog/product/view/id/3834/s/power-supply-30-amps-variable-voltage-analogue-design/category/121/ Being an ex Ham operator never renewed my licence when moving to France I use one of these for the Mount and Aux with relevant convertors. Just what I had lying around and why not use it. When I bought it I think it cost me around 50 quid 15 years ago... and still works. albeit the model has had a facelift since then but still the same

will do as was driving me mad errors all over the place

take a look at this with available macro's from a member of affinity

me testing the waters.. if you know what i mean

my build is a virgin Raspbian latest version . I can capture an image so far so good then while i go through the script it fails.... or maybe me

Jason, Not used to linux i've tried to follow the script but what a ball ache. errors when inputting commands from the hosts github site... can you explain if possible how you solved it regards Andy

mount and guide camera yes from rpi4 albeit in early stage for tracking, yet to do imaging that's the challenge......

learning linux is like learning french……. being an ex bill gates follower.... but willing to learn and all the commands...…….

Me still playing with Astroberry on my RPI4 Plus installed Mint on a redundant lappy so far works a treat.

that's the minor adjustment tool for delicate work

It's the file extension example Hvlg.8bf is the file for Hasta la vista 8bf file extension normally hold Adobe filter plug-in files. ... Adobe applications use plug-ins to provide added functionality for an associated Adobe software application. The plug-ins are often used to enable third-party features or to reduce the size of an application

I forgot you made your own

If the plugins are .8bf then they might work for example Hasta la vista works HLVG Astro flat Pro as well

just found one of Roberts 3d printed brackets for a Crayford focuser and the above motors https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3731843

likewise I bought it also a steal at the price

Welcome Patrick, Know the feeling well and have fun here and ask away any questions you may have. Andy

Welcome Wojtek to SGL and continue to enjoy Andy

Neil, This has me thinking for my SW 72ED and find a bracket to fit the motor to or find one on thingiverse. I've got Nano's and some of those 5v motors with boards somewhere (stolen from my son) 🙊 he won't miss them. now to look at @tekkydave Arduino code would you use a direct coupling or belt drive? Cheers Andy

i think their partner is Aisler
