First test images

I've finally managed to get around to trying out some test images on the RC10 and, sure enough, the collimation is not what it should be. I have attached an image which shows the non concentric star shapes with the out of focus image. The bright star in the field is Beta Crucis. The field is not flat as well as the out of focus is more pronounced in one corner of the image. Now for the task of checking and adjusting. Will post more images as they come to hand.
