Good advice re balancing the mount I do have it deliberately slightly out of balance to the east but not for the RA needle roller bearings which are super smooth rather the plastic worm wheel. I use Sharpcap for its incredibly accurate polar alingment, I can get within arc secs and get it done before its fully dark. Wind is a big issue as the scope with the big dewshield is a sail. But if I have the dew heat up too much it does affect the bright stars but the night was so wet water was running down the outside of the tube but the heat kept dew off the secondary
