Re: Mach1 CP3 pier crash!! (Similar to CP4 crash in another thread)
Indeed. The only time my Pyramid shut down was in the summer heat. That week I placed a small fan to circulate the air around it and the problem went away.

Hi,
You should be aware that under certain conditions, ANY Pyramid power supply, including the one sold through AP, may NOT reset its “thermal breaker” after a dropout, for upto a half

Re: Mach1GTO RA is lurching back and forth a LOT
If you did a balance with the worm gear backed off, you may have backed off the worm in a forbidden position. The ONLY configuration that you can back off the worm is in Park3. If you tried to back

Mach1GTO RA is lurching back and forth a LOT
When new (November 2017) my Mach1GTO was very smooth. I could shoot 5 minute subs unguided at 480mm all night long.
Now the RA has regular "lurches" (as I call them). See the PHD2 Guiding assistant

Re: CP4 Time & Location
Thanks guys, sorry for taking up you time. After I posted the question I opened up " Telescope Setup" and realized there was my answer. Since getting the mount recently I have very little time out

Re: Mach2 Status Update
AP has been busy! I was notified this Monday that my Mach 2 was ready! It's on it's way to me now and yes I'm very excited. Thankfully, the wait was nothing compared to the 130 GTX! Thank you AP

Re: Mach2 Status Update
We are busy assembling and shipping. I have people doing sub-assemblies at home and I am doing all final assembly and testing here. There are mounts going out pretty much every day now.
