Description

Dry- run of what I hope will be a useful finder-assistant - I've clipped my phone parallel to the back of my camera and, running a theodolite app based on the phone's gyroscope and compass, mirrored the display to my iPad (to save my back). If I calibrate the app on Polaris, after PA, I should be able to swing to whatever Az/Alt reading I get from Stellarium or the like. Not sure how accurate it's going to be...waiting for the next clear spell to try it for real
