I was imaging the Helix a while back and the guiding was perfect so I thinking that the Taran. is too low.

Thanks for those docs Ill have a look through them.

Tonight looks to be another clear one so I will locate an object much higher up and see how guiding performs. All the good stuff is too low to the horizon!
Did you recalibrate when you went to tarantula? You should as it is lower on the horizon that helix which is more or less overhead. Also are you using multi star guiding then 1 second is fine otherwise 2 secs or more for single star guiding.
