OK given the small disaster that happened last night i managed to get something. my first attempt using the redcat51 with non functioning bits. 19min of eta and 20 min of crux at iso 800 and iso 400 (crux). they aren't much but its progress
the evdning started with the failure of the DAD3 focus motor and then it was topped off with fog. so i literally live view manual focus with the canon eos Ra - brilliant that 30x zoom and then realised i hadn't reset the guide information since 2020, so redid that. then i was alive until fog closed play for the night. i an hoping to get another crack this weekend. no LP filter was used. first impression is i like the redcat, it fits in a lot of targets. i will be looking forward to getting some time on these targets and processing them. i almost forgot how to use pixinsight. i hope you other punters enjoyed the clear sky last night.
