I tried my first 2-panel mosaic last night on IC2944 just to see if it was possible or if I would end up in trouble. I think it's probably turned out OK. It needed double the acquisition time of course, and double the processing but it gets around the problem of the narrow format of the Seestar for larger objects.
Having never imaged this object before, I wasn't sure if the stitching was actually correct so I uploaded the finished file to Astrometry to see if the plate solve would work. To my amazement, it solved.
