Hi again guys. I'm out with my mount again and having some issues
My dec axis seems to be making some really wild corrections. (more than 3").
I think that may be due to some stiffness in that axis. so will have a go at playing with the worm gear meshing on the dec gear later.
But the main question i have tonight is, If i track on something far from the pole like pleiades, it tracks pretty good. However If i go for something nearer the pole, (the LMC) the RA axis is trying to make big corrections. (on the order of 12").
I have drift aligned for 5 min at 400mm FL. I used the star Menkar for the meridian point. and Procyon for my eastern drift for altitude.
Any ideas as to what may be happening??
Edit: I slewed away to another object and back and the tracking seems to be under control again. Why does guiding have to be so finnicky??
