Polar Alignment
Hi Guys,
Have been thinking about this scope buggy of M Pinner and eq platforms and wedges to be adapted etc etc.
One important thought to cross my mind this morning is polar alignment. If there is going to be a eq platform, then polar alignment must be done.
I can source a usb compass for about $85 that is accurate to 1 degree. Given magnetic north is not true north, and to some degree i can adjust that via software, how accurate mus the polar aligning be.
Given you guys are mostly doing it by hand, do you have a feel for how accurate you would want a scope buggy with polar alignment built in with a motor to automatically align?
