My Tak didn't have a FT motor, it had the FT 10:1 retrofit,
this one.
I did look into the setup you linked to but it came down to cost. The Focuser Boss kit was about 30-40% more than the equivalent Robofocus package.
Plus I'll probably sell my FT retrofit package soon and that will bring the overall cost down to probably at least half that of the Focuser Boss setup.
Obviously cost is irrelevant if it doesn't work properly but mine got through it's first light night flawlessly. What problems did you have with yours? Anything I should watch out for?
Aesthetically you might be right
But for me if the scope is working well then that's a beautiful thing
