Being a SCT user I've just used the regular focuser. The back focus on the Edge 8 isn't sufficient for a r&p, oag, filter wheel and camera, less so with the reducer inline. It's probably doable but tricky.
Yeah, no worries. As you know that focuser is of "unknown history" and when it came to me it was not in its original packaging and had been used for 'testing'. It could have been damaged before, or during shipping, and as it was a "freebie" i am not upset about it not working out. I gave it a shot, now onto a standard config with solid T tube to the camera.
That wraps this thread up i think, thanks for all the suggestions.
