Hi Ryan,
Tightened up the worm gears by loosening the three hex bolts on RA and DEC motor assembly and adjusting play appropriately. The guiding was great for the first two 10 minute subs but then got gradually worse heading to 1.5" error with RA shifting wildly. Will check everything out for stability again and will have another run tonight.
BTW I'm using ASIAir and Orion 50mm guide scope. Would be interested in your ASIAir guide and mount settings.
... just noticed that the scope is sliding in the tube rings despite the rings being tightened to the max. The guide scope is off-set on the scope so would add minute twist. Could explain the worsening tracking in RA as the scope moves closer to the Medidian... will add some felt to the rings and test tonight.
Chris
