Thanks for the write ups, it looks like an interesting device.

Yes I got it working once. I’m trying again as we speak. This time with the dec axis motor on the same side as the RA motor and I have everything pointed to somewhere near Antares. It simply fails calibration because it says there’s no movement in Dec. see pic.
