Excellent indeed! The guiding looks pretty sweet to me..

20mins through the RC8 with a KAF8300 sensor is pretty unforgiving. if even the slightest thing goes wrong you will know about it..

As for the focuser, Moonlite and Feathertouch options exist, the FT is the better of the two focusers in my opinion, however the moonlite is a more cost effective focuser.. I'm yet to try my current, heavy camera setup in a moonlite, but I know it sags my FT... The joys of having a 3kg camera setup in a 3.1kg telescope I guess..

Great work.. I'm really looking forward to seeing what you can achieve with this setup... So far it looks sensational.
