Well, looks like Don was misled, they have just come back into stock so I ordered one today as if the last time is any guide they will sell out again quickly, unless they shipped them a hundred this time.
I also just ordered an 11" RASA retrofit kit which is the focus knob (The threaded brass bit on the inside) and bearing assembly to remove the Feathertouch the 11" RASA comes with standard now for a standard one speed one to allow fitment of the focus motor to those scopes. Had to get that fromt he states though I missed a step and selected the slower freight method, hopefully I get both bits before the next new moon.
Then to decide if I sell the Feathertouch or not. I don't have a Celestron mount (Which allows focus control via the hand controller) but if I can get or make a stand alone hand controller to drive the stepper motor for visual use then the Feathertouch becomes a bit redundant.
