Cygnus wall with my new Altair 80ED and AZ GTI

[powerlord]

Main mount shooting M33 this evening, so I thought I'd upgrade the AZGTI firmware and see how the guiding is now. It was VASTLY overloaded with the 80ED, EAF, asi533 and guidescope on it - need to weight tomorrow, but can't be far off 10kg.

Really just a test to see if the azgti is guiding correctly with latest firmware with ASIAIR.. and shock horror - it is finally!! yeah! Not wonderfully - sometimes 3" rms, sometimes <1 rms". but it's not running away, and frankly I'm asking a lot of it with the heavy 80ED on it.

None the less, it did it - 500mm FL with an AZGTI.. not bad.

Here's the result, 130 mins of 13 x 10 min of the best subs. L-extreme of course.

stacked in APP, processed in Siril and Affinity Photo. Not bad for a wee cheap azgti imho at this Focal Length !

Just to add, I weighted it and actually just 5.2kg. Good to know u can get results with 500mm.
