Looks like your focus may be a tad soft?

Thanks Marcus :-)
I had a bit of trouble with turbulence during the red subs, I thought it was mount problems until I actually looked up at the sky and could see the stars literally dancing around in that part of the sky. The issue seemed to clear up during the other subs. I am using a robofocus on the fsq, though I capture and process on a Mac. I can't use robofocus with theskyx on OSX (at least I don't know a way to do this without ASCOM), so I have to fire up a virtual machine and manually adjust focus through that. Focus was adjusted every 30mins, though I could be reading the graphs wrong in theskyx pro camera add-on.
Also, I would love some more focal length and aperture for these types of targets. Right now I am considering a few f/8 options in the 10-12" aperture range, just not completely sure.
Cheers,
Chris
