Yes and I have made a few attempts using the tutorials on this Forum but I am having trouble they seem to work but I cant get them in focus on the planets or stars I can focus on trees reasonably close but any thing in the sky seems to need to focus down further than it will go which is why I was looking at the Snake Cam so I could get further down in the focuser. I was told that I can move the Primary Mirror closer to the Secondary but I am a chicken I don't want to put my only scope out of action.
