A mate of mine did a shot slightly wider FOV with an FSQ106 and it matches mine so I reckon it's about right.

Thanks Ross.

Nearly there with the new rig. Tiny bit more spacing with the MPCC and I'm on the money I reckon. I'm also trying to source 300mm of 8" CF tube to do a solid dewshield. I'm having some issues with doing flats with my EL sheet. Stray light. I think it's too close to the secondary and light leaks into the focuser barrel. That secondary is huge.
Then finally will need to insert the OAG in the imaging train. At this image scale I just can't get away with the lazy guider guiding anymore.
