I don't quite understand this. I have a Celestron motor focuser on my C8 and it solves the problem of scope vibration (and wearing out your fingertips) when you focus. It doesn't address the mirror flop.
Would I still have the flop with a Crayford? eg JMI EV1cm
Is there any way to lock the mirror after a rough focus and do the final with a Crayford? Depending on what is on the visual back the focal position moves more than I think a Crayford can handle.
