Losmandy Titan and 3 scopes

Hi all,

here is my new setup, it all began back in April 2008 and is almost finished. Still getting my head around the 132 page manual for the Losmandy Titan mount.

One one side is the Takahashi FS102 and the other, the Takahashi 160mm f3.3 Astrograph with the 14" Meade LX200 SCT in the centre.

The 2 outer scopes are sitting on 2 pieces of Alluminium channel 800mm long x 80mm wide x 40mm high and 6mm thick. My only concern is if I will get differential flexure, and if so I will need a OAG.

Hi Trevor and Alex. I have not used the astrograph as yet, but hoping to use it soon. Looking forward to getting into DSO imaging, plus auto guiding for the first time.
