are you using nexus

I'm using the Sky Commander but I hear Nexus might be better in some regards. I bought this one as it was recommended to me and the controller has heaters built in it so it works in the cold. Downside is the cables, but Astrosystems is going to make me some flexible silicon sheathed ones.

Nexus uses the phone Mike? wireless?

The Sky Commander is accurate to 1/10 deg and I can re find objects easily when using .3 deg TFOV using orthos. There are tricks to get this accuracy though.

Are you running Nexus on your current scope?

Fantastic Mike!

Eagerly waiting reports.

The Sky Commander is "old school" I think but it is accurate and meets my needs. How accurate is the Nexus system Mike?

Sorry to all for going off topic in my own thread
