Brett's right.

IMO forget the internal guide chip for all but lum, AO is marginal at the best of times (but a killer for the rare times there is bright enough guide star) filters kill it. OAG is the only way. And with a rotator, that's essential.

Go away Mike, FLI not doing AO doesn't make useless . It's the only way to beat seeing short of a remote dark site.

The only guide cameras you can use are sbig cameras with an i2c port or as rally says a remote guide head.

I was using a moag aol combo, but it chewed too much backfocus. Now I use the internal guide chip and a rotator. I don't do narrowband, but if it floats your boat, the internal guider ain't gunna be much chop.
