Yup! You're on the money with the calc.

It does improve the error, but I don't think the improvement is worthwhile given the extra complexity.

It's an interesting problem, but I suspect an EQ platform is probably a better solution... any differential deflection as the barndoor tilts is not a factor with the EQ platform.
