Always hang a weight off the tripods hook to lower centre of gravity and add a bit of stability

Hi Narayan,
I also have a heavy duty Benro tripod, but use a Manfrotto 410 geared head (which i love) and 486rc2 ball head (which i hate!).
Another question, when you drift align are you running the astrotrac in test mode and following the ccd drift alignment (i.e. run it fordward 1min then backward 1 min etc..) or are you simply just imaging for 30seconds while the astrotrac is tracking normally?
Thanks again
