Telescope Reviews: Youtube of Rigel Systems Stepper on NP-127

Hi All,

We've made our DC motor + nFOCUS controller, and our Stepper motors for the Televue Focuser even better. Here's a youtube short video of the Rigel Systems stepper motor, repeatedly and smoothly lifting the SBig ST-8XE with the CFW8 even with the telescope vertical to the ground with the image train being pulled directly up.

Since it mounts to the single-speed knob, you can have the 6:1 TeleVue knob on the other side and simple disengage the stepper motor by loosening the red thumb screws gear to just have manual control for a viewing session.

Stepper motor has 0.1 degree step size. Also included is an RJ12-DB9 adapter for robofocus/moonlite pin-out compatiblity. Uses standard 6-wire telephone cable and RJ12 connector for our steppers.

Drop by and take a look!
