Gary Kopff from Wildcard Innovations is off on a well earned break after releasing the new version of the Software on 31/12/05.
You can buy a mounting kit that enables you to mount the encoders directly to your 12" GS dob. If you build a new base for your scope depending on how you design it you may need to modify the mounting hardware slightly but you could certainly use the same encoders on your new mount. If the design was similar you may not need to modify anything.
I have used the system for the past couple of years. I also did some beta testing on the new software for Gary. It is easily the best DSC package available today and the new firmware which incorpprates (TPAS) puts it light years ahead of the competition. In life you generally get what you pay for, with Argo Navis and Wildcard Innovations, you get more than what you pay for. The new firmware incorporating TPAS was made available free to all existing Argo Navis users as will any subsequent firmware releases. TPAS is short for "Telescope Pointing Analysis Software" and what this does is refines the pointing accuracy by compensating for any errors in the mount itself.
