Using their advice I have been using the SBIG Sti guider set piggy back on the Edge C11 with great results.

I found that article to be false.

I used the SBIG Lens kit guider and it gave poor results with an AP refractor 1050mm focal length and a good mount that was well polar aligned.

AP have a nice modified Baader vario finder scope autoguider that some are using with great results on Riccardi Honders scopes which are very precise.

Worth a look.
