Thanks Gents. It's a small target and not easily definable but the up side to me was the large cluster of galaxy's. I didn't expect this.

Funny enough I could see the main galaxy blob with the guide scope, WO70ED & QHY5 camera on 2 sec exposures, repeating.

I took this up to 10sec exposures just to play and the the main galaxy blob was very definable.

Anyway it tracks well & I need a field flattener...when I can save up enough. I'll revisit this when I get my C8 up & running. I'm waiting on a guide scope dovetail..again when I save up. Maybe F10 will do it justice.

This will test the mount & tracking!
