The OAG helps a lot there Dave. It has almost eliminated flex, not completely, but almost.

John.
I probably combed the data John. The temptation to overstretch is always there.

So much detail and very sharp.
Ross.
Again the OAG helps a lot at 1.6meters and a touch of selective sharpening too.

Well done Mate. Looks like it's now all working.
Doug, I created an action to hubblise the colours and another one to fix the stars. I just embedded directions directly off the net into actions Did little else there, I'm not keen on sitting in front of computers and I could do with a decent monitor as well. The OAG is working well at this FL but I had it running for almost 3 hours tonight before I realized the cooler was off It's still not idiot proof

I just set the camera to zero degrees rotation and align it with pinpoint Paul. Then just cropped off the black bits The RC8 holds focus well though. Doesn't seem to shift at all. There are some elongated stars on the left of all the images which is actually the top of the sensor. I can't afford a new focuser just now
