You rock, thanks.

But the problem would be just backlash at the start right? Once engaged it should not have problems I guess.. I read that onstep has a parameter for taking backlash into account, so maybe could be a w

the EQM35 Pro is similar to EQ3 but with better RA (but with with RA worm wheel with 180 teeth for high precision tracking (compared to 130 teeth for the EQ3) both RA and DEC motor and gears are locat

Hi Mike, Yes, the main issue with backlash seems to be on the altitude axis. I probably will move it to a closer location at some point, but I have 3 different opportunities for campouts to dark sky s

Ok, time for an update. I've received the 60T pulleys with 6mm bore, so now I've a wobble-free EQ5 ;). But those pulleys are not as symmetrical as one can expect and the curve is not completely sinuso

Hi all, I just designed and printed a Front cover for the MaxPCB that houses the BME280. It works. Here are the STL files. Sorry to ask probably trivial questions, I'm a newbie at using current astron

Hi Biggs, I don't think you can mix gear & belt types successfully. The pitch is wrong so the belt won't fit correctly into the teeth and the bending radius will likely differ. I think that's what you

Yes, from the point of view of imaging scale is perfect. The only problem is that the 40D is very noisy and a little blind to reds ;). Yesterday I've made some test with the backlash compensation insi

Yes this is a limitation fort the D1R32. Mine gave me 4.4V at open circuit that drops to 4.2V when running a WeMos D1 Mini, a pair of LEDs and a passive buzzer. But the WeMos D1 Mini is definitively r
