Hello Bryan

I looked at The Sky 6 software with my CG5 - despite setting the program up correctly 3 times (in case I had made a mistake on the previous 2), the goto part of the program kept sending my scope into the tripod legs while trying to point through the ground.

The Sky has its own goto drivers (no ASCOM) and the list of telescopes is not large.

I have found Skytools 2 to be excellent for planning and mount control.
