Yeah Ray its pretty much both the RA and DEC axis. RA is a little looser probably could turn it if you had enough strength. I find it really strange what's happening. I loosen both a bit but no change...

Hi Nik, was yours fine when slewing at x9 speed ect or did you get the star drifting away on guiding? Its a little mystery atm but hopefully I can work it out...Did it again last night, its random when it happens well I don't see it coming and the phd 2 graph in DEC shoots through the roof and the star is lost. Hoping I can get it resolved sooner than later, its odd alright.
