Late to the party

Commenting in case any of this helps others.

I'm running of a Raspberry Pi (8GB) and Astroberry. Mostly good although the occasional issue. Support for the Indi stuff is pretty good via indilib.org

I have two Pi's setup pretty close to identically although the second one is a 2GB (I think). Either seems to do OK at Solving which I suspect is the most intensive task it has to do. I had an issue for a while with KStars/Ekos crashing after a solve which seemed to be resolved by fiddling with the solve options. I have some doubts about the reliability of auto focus and am including less focus steps in sequences which I don't intend to watch closely (focus seems to be pretty stable once setup).

Overall I'm a fan of the Pi/KStars/Ekos/Indi stack mounted at the telescope and accessed remotely via RealVNC viewer especially compared to the fun of trying to control things via a Windows Laptop.
