A few while testing maxim functions

I recently purchased a Hitec astro mount hub pro, and since then my mount has been able to be controlled from eqmod ( an issue I was having was preventing this) so I took my gear out to see what it could do.

These are two images I took along the way, the first is some nebulosity near ngc6231 I manually slewed to it while I was testing maxim (it wasnt in the frame with the cluster)

1x15 minute 1x1

The second image is the cats paw

10x10 minute 1x1

as a side note, the mount hub pro makes setting up and bringing in my gear so much easyer. All of the cables "ride" on the telescope so there is no need to disconnect them, and only 2 cables need to be plugged in.
