I just got fed up with looking, comparing, finding drivers/software etc, so i just ordered the Maxdom II rotation only, then (And i wasnt happy about this next part), i had to build a relay box assembly to drive my 20A motor drive to the Dome. The Maxdome only has 5A rating.
But oh my, how sweet it is now, the whole scope/Dome, imaging, etc all controlled remotely via internet and wireless. Setup and sit inside a warm room in the house for the remainder of the night until i shutdown. Telescope moves, and dome follows, sweeeet. The same controller will do the rolloff room really easy, and take different sensors or accessories, like the weather station units..
