Very nice mount (well finished)

Quite easy to mount.
However, you have to be very careful, I spent more than 2 hours for my part.
I had a small installation problem on my PC, Fabian was very responsive. I thank him very much.

Assembly and tests went well, impressive; waiting for a decent night.

Assembly went well; this is the first time I have dealt with printed material, and was pleasantly surprised at the quality. It took me a couple days to figure out how to actually use it, between OATcontrol, ASCOM, Stellarium, APT, SharpCap, BackyardEOS, and whatnot, but my indoor tests have all gone well. As soon as we get a reasonably clear night (won't be soon) I'll be able to do a real test.

intéressant

j'ai eu beaucoup de difficultés avec la connection PC. Le firmwar proposé ne me permet pas l'utilisation de NINA ou Stellarium.
Ceci est dommage!

Genial

El kit es una pasada. Pasé un rato genial montándolo. Queda muy robusto.
Ahora me queda ponerlo en marcha y probarlo, pero tiene muy buena pinta.
