Been waiting a couple of weeks for this first light review but I knew you'd love the scope and your imaging will improve even further so imagine 20 hours plus on those galaxy tidal waves from a dark site. Told you collimation has to be perfect at F3.8 and will need patient fiddling but once done it should be fixed. OrionOptics are a small company but world class optical craftsmen and with favourable exchange rates they may make more sales here.

Looks like your using a guidescope from the images but I would strongly advise switching to an OAG for those really long dark site subs avoiding flexure completely.
