Hi,

Could anyone give me any pointers on why I'm getting the large scale and small scale noise in this image (& how to improve it)?

Cant seem to remove either sufficiently well with DBE.

Any help / tips on what to look into really appreciated - I've been following the pixinsight tutorials for RGB pre-processing (inc. subframe selection and drizzle integ etc).

I've attached RGB combination & zoom plus the small-scale noise shown in green integration.  I'm imaging with a Atik Horizon Mono, LRGB filters, Bortle 6 zone

Cheers

No joy - its still doing the same thing.

When I issue a slew command it slews to the general area then stops, then slews in stages further away in RA.

The park position is also abut 45 degrees out.

Any other ideas?

Great tip - thanks Marcus - yes I could move the RA axis.  I've tightened the clutch-ring up and will give it another test this evening.

My AZEQ6 has started going haywire:

Basically when I issue a slew command it starts moving toward the target, then starts going back and forth and eventually ends up pointing vertically - no matter what target I try to slew toward.

This happens with both USB and hand-controller, worryingly it also happens without any mount or weights connected.

I've had the mount for approx 18 months, its always had gremlins to be honest but this feels like a genuine failure.  Its mounted outside on a pier and has solid mains power-supply (which has worked to-date).

Any ideas / pointers etc on how I could fix or diagnose much appreciated. (missing out on some great skies :(
