Hi Kevin
I have the Esprit 120 and just pulled the trigger of getting an Esprit 80 to go with it. I have the nstep focus motor and setup from Rigelsys in the US. Leon just needs a photo of the underside of the focuser to confirm the layout so that he is sure he is supplying the correct mounting plate. Simple process of screwing the plate on, and attaching the cog provided to the focus shaft - it just slides on and you attach the motor with two screws also provided. These can be tensioned to suit. It is fully ascom compatible and if using the Sky X it works really well with @focus3. I am communicating with Leon at the moment to get the nstep for the new scope as well as I am more then happy with the one on the 120. The best part is it just works and goes together without any hassle.
