That is much the direction I am heading, but as you say, they tend to be a lot of work.

I started a big mosaic early this year (As soon as I could get an hour on the target above 40 degrees altitude before the end of astronomical night) and it has turned into a two year project due to the weather.

Now complicated by changing cameras, I will hopefully get some data this time around the sun to restart with the new camera and finish it off next year. Even with 5 minute subs and an an OSC camera, when you want a minimum of 70 GOOD subs per panel, 12 panels or more is suddenly a big job.
