Help needed with new flattener.

Hi,

I have had a spacer made for my Williams Optics Flt 110 Pflat68 to the QHY9. I did LRGB of the Swan and thought the focus was a bit soft but did not know if that was the seeing. Anyway last night all I managed was 2 x 20 Min Ha of the Lagoon. It appears to have got bigger in my image as opposed to prior to my flattener and I ended up with eggy stars but the all are oval shaped from right to left not corner to center. Any advice on what could be going on would be helpful unless as I rotated the camera using the 360 degree rotator but still focussed after that could be the issue. Of course it is cloudy tonight. A rough Lagoon.
