Thanks Rob,
I haven't had this out under a night sky yet....just experimenting indoors. Having said the above, I now seem to have managed bi-directional travel by giving SGP a starting point, and telling it to "go to" plus or minus that figure. Not sure why that didn't work before.
I have this on the original SW R&P focuser that came with this ED80 Pro (gold scope). I have no idea as to its precision though. Can you suggest an alternative focuser (Feathertouch is out of my price range)? I'd consider adding something like a Sharpsky Pro focus motor if the cheap SW motor isn't up to it.
