  • Yeah I was looking into OAG while you were posting this, I might try to go this way instead. Thanks :)
  • Out of curiosity why do you think 50mm guide scope would make it possibly worse?
  • I was wondering about something like that: https://www.firstlightoptics.com/guide-cameras/sky-watcher-evoguide-50ed-guidescope.html With current setup I can only move the guide scope left/right since there is no rings. But if you say bigger will be…
  • Hmm I'm not sure what I could do to fix that, the guide scope seems to sit nicely, but who knows, maybe there is temp. change or something. Do you think it would make sense to get a bigger guide scope for my Redcat 61? Thanks
  • Sorry for a silly question but what do you mean exactly?I have my guide scope attached to the bracket on top of my scope, guide scope for my eye seems aligned with the RC61, can it be that the guide camera is rotated a bit?  Or do you mean something…
  • Thanks for all your help. I'm lost because lately Asiair was showing my PA as quite good, but I don't really trust it anymore.I've a new Redcat 61 (previously RC51), everything is very tight. My guiding scope is ZWO 120mm mini and main camera 2600MC…
  • I can upload some of the frames if you would be kind enough to look at them, I've tried asking on other forums but didn't receive much help. :(
  • Well when looking at the weightImage I can see lot's of what I was told is a field rotation.  Here is rejection_low screenshot, I took the master stack that isn't drizzled, at least I think so since WBPP outputs 2 images, one drizzled and the smalle…
  • Is there a tutorial already? I only bought "Narrowband FastTrack" so I guess it's in a different paid course?
  • I've loaded 3 different stacks into SubframeSelector. (not sure if that makes sense to compare SNR this way?) Image 1: All 3 sessions stacked in WBPP in PI 1.8.9 Image 2: All 3 sessions stacked in WBPP in PI 1.9.1 (16 frames rejected by WBPP) Image …
  • It seems like the issue is the pedestal set in WBPP. Previously I would set pedestal to 100 as you recommended in your older video, and there wasn't any zero value pixels, but the weightImage doesn't look uniform. If I set pedestal to auto it's choo…
  • I've tried drizzle 1x and the weightImage looks all green, but the stars look way worse.
  • Thanks, I'm new to dithering and was told by a friend to do it each 3-4 frames, since it takes time. If I uploaded the stack would you be able to tell if anything is wrong?I just did NGC1499 last night and had the same weightImage. Cheers
  • Well I would prefer to drizzle 2x to get higher resolution to future proof it, if that makes sense.I dither every 3-4 frames, and the image was 107x120s.
