I've connected it to my Mount Hub Pro and it works as smooth as butter. I managed to get my best focus last night with no problems whatsoever and it held it all night.

The only thing I would say is its real heavy and will need to be balanced out but its one of the best aftermarket pieces of kit I've ever bought

A few pics here.

I'm another Moonlite fan - all my bigger scopes have them. And I also use a HitecAstro Mount Hub Pro but for some resason haven't connected the two. Did the PC still allocate a separate Com Port to the focuser? Did you have any other issues with the connection?
