thanks phill i have manually set my home position and the aligning stars are so close its not funny .dont get me wrong when i take the scope to star parties all the technology is great let it do an auto align easy as but im not confident to do any firmware updates incase things go terribley wrong and have to send control back to bintel i can only imagine what don would say to me

just a quick question do you have any probs parking scope mine doesnt seem to turn on and be aligned always 10 deg out in r.a
