DIY RA Motor advice needed
Folks...
Due to recent discussions about barn door trackers on this forum my chronic DIY condition came back.
I have an old powerseeker 127 that does not see any use.
I also have some slow gearmotors and controllers collecting dust.
(0.5 RPM jobs)
It occurs to me i am but a suitably fashioned bracket away from
having a motorised EQ mount, albeit a flimsy and wobbly one.
(I intend to remove the OTA and use it to mount the SLR for widefield.)
Does anybody know the gear ratio of the RA control on these mounts?
I just need to know how fast to run the motor.....
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
cheers,
