You may need to shim your adapter to pack it up on one side. A bit of trial and error.
Which night was that? We had good seeing 2 nights and bad seeing on another. Thurs night was the bad seeing night and Wed and Fri were good.

In the raw files the elongation is about equal but there may be some tilt as well. There were other obvious symptoms of acceleration and spring plunger issues - elongation in the direction of travel when calibrating. One step at a time though!!
I did this on Sunday and Monday nights (above average seeing) - but I only had short tinkering sessions because they were work nights. I was also also dealing with BSODs (maybe resolved) and trying to get the rotator to work in synchrony with CCDAP and TheSkyX (unresolved)
