Has anyone tried putting steppers/pulleys on a Losmandy G8?
« on: July 07, 2017, 18:39:15 »
I'm thinking of buying a manual Losmandy G8 mount and putting my current AstroEQ setup on it. However it looks like there isn't enough space on the mount to connect the motors like on the EQ5, especially on RA. I don't want to connect the motors sticking out from the sides with a coupler and planetary gears. But this is just an observation from the photos I have seen. I prefer if someone has better knowledge and enlighten me  :)
