Due to the weight of the camera & paracorr I have some issues with tilt, especially at the meridian. I also had to rotate the secondary cage so the camera is under slung due to all the extra counterweights I had to put all over the scope. I have a 24" dovetail on the way so hopefully I can move the scope back a bit further to remove some more counterweights.
I also have a hella expensive Gerd Neumann Camera Tilting Unit but I don't have the right adapters to fit it in to my imaging train yet. I used them all just to get the paracorr spacing right.
For focusing I use a feathertouch posi drive. Very happy with it since it has no discernible backlash so far.
This thing has been a major pain in the ass. Don't chase aperture! I just hope it's all worth it in the end.
