Que?

The only "tinkering" I had to do had nothing to do with the telescope.

If you use a KAF16803, then small machining errors in either the filterwheel
or camera adapters can cause a smidge of focal plane tilt.

To suggest it's the telescope is nonsense.

Given my Alluna RC16 has been used to take the images that have won two Deep Sky CWAS/Malins in recent times,
I'm confident in categorically stating they are an excellent instrument that simply does not require any 'tinkering'.
