ASA DMM60 Preliminary Potential Guiding Results

I've spent the last day or so going back and forth playing around with various PID values (basically elasticity and stiffness of the magnetic drive) in an attempt to getting the best out of my new DDM60 as I can before I get out under the stars... Hopefully tomorrow night for some testing.

This is of course purely in a controlled setting thus far, my lounge room As to how well things work in the real world outside of the "lab", well, bring on the clear skies!

The mount has taken a bit of getting used to be it looks like it has the potential to be a serious performer
