I'll probably attack Orion this season.. I've been avoiding it, but I'll probably do it.. If I do, I'll shoot a bunch of 20min subs at F/4.8 and see if I can catch the same amount of light in 2 hours as you got in 20 mins...

Sounds good. Mosaic time!

Thanks Mike. Yeah looking forward to it once I've ironed out a few bugs.

Thanks Doug. It does work really well with the C11. I love widefields and being able to do it with a large aperture scope is even better. Your FSQ106 is a dream scope but unfortunately not the stuff that I'll be ever able to buy.
