It's all about the moment arm. Long tube, weight on each end. The Mach 2 will support the weight. But it may have the Jello effect because of the long moment arm. Sent via the Samsung Galaxy Note9, an

Guess I'm really odd. In over 40 years of imaging, I've never needed a mount with absolute encoders and I have had a wee bit of success with my images. Always go for the gold! The Telescope! Sell your

Great read. Nothing like a new telescope mount. According to the published specs, the M2 is only a few lbs lighter than the 1100. Is 24v a requirement for the high speed slews? Cheers, jg Sent via the
