Field de-rotator on ED80??
The honest answer is I don't think its been tried!!
I did make up an adaptor which screws on the end of the ED80 drawtube and gives a male SCT thread, this allows me to use the flip mirror etc from the meade on the ED80.
It would be possible to fit the derotator to such an adaptor and plug it into the LX200 panel for the control signal. The LX200 could then adequately track on a central guide star.......interesting concept!!!
