Description

I would like to be able to set the scope up and leave it on its own for an hour or two just gathering data.
But depending on accuracy of alignment and drift, I usually have to re-center the object every 30-45 minutes.
So, have been working on guiding using PHD2 and this is the first image from that process.  Eventually will extend those subs providing the resolution/detail can be maintained or improved.

Was pleasantly surprised at the detail, ie, stars resolved when zooming in.
