Thanks folks very much appreciate the comments.
The c14 /2600mc combo presents quite a challenge but when the conditions and mount are agreeable it has the capability to give quite incredible detail. Basically I’ve worked out I need to be guiding at or below 0.45 rms to get a tidy image. I’m still learning the image processing side of things but have found APP to be extremely user friendly and quite powerful to fix my major problem: gradients from light pollution and poor calibration files. It doesn’t have the additional processing available in startools and PI but I’ve found this is a good start for me (2weeks into my trial) and I’m pulling out far less hair.
