Ok...we are now heading in the right direction.

All I did was apply more weight to the eastern side as some have already mentioned including the Yahoo group.....I think I had the mount to well balanced from the start....The RA motor did stall on 2 occasions so I slowed down the slew speed and slightly adjusted the weight again...I may have a gone a little to far on the first attempt as the motor was getting a little warm.

I will still getting some PE but less then before...so I tried guiding through the C11 at FL2800 and all went well with some adjustments of figures in Guidedog but had no problem guiding for 10 minutes.

So I am happier then I was last night so thats a good thing.

Atleast this has given me an opportunity to get to know my mount.

Thanks guys...I am still not out of the woods until I do a test image but heading the right way.

Thanks.
