Let me also add that the addition of tradational tube rings vs. the single dovetail support on the bottom of the OTA took care of flexure in the total system. I later discovered that my STI autoguider bracket was loose and that eliminated the rest of the differential flexure I was experiencing.

Good luck with your new system.
You're getting great results without flexure.
