Attached is a picture of the imaging train.
Everything is bolt-on, and hence there is *very* little room for error when specifying custom adapter length for use with the FLI focuser.
I breathed a sigh of relief when focus came in at almost exactly 1/2 of the FLI's travel range.  |
Very nice. I thought it was the AOX unit. But the results speak for themselves. Are you expecting the newer AOX unit to perform even better than this AO-8T? I don't know a lot about AO units never having used one but I feel I am missing out on some extra performance because of that.
