Hi Brendan
Nice shots, the Ha gives nice crisp details.
The trailing stars WILL be due at least in part to tube flexure, I had a 12 inch newt on a g11 , and that's where the problem lies. The tube is not strong enough to hold e weight of the dslr , remember we are on
Y talking micron movement here.
The detail you have is enough at 10 mins just get more subs and stretch if required.
Not to put a downer on the scope as it will give superb bang for the buck, I decided to put a strengthener plate arou d the focused , this helped but I was too fussy and gave up on it and sold it. I put a 5 inch apo on the g11 and it won't shift a pixel in hours now.
Another way to fix it would be off axis guiding or like the sbig cameras..... Inbuilt so that tube flexure is not an issue.
