Esprit9 224MC Haz31 denoise Web

Imaging rig for Vesta. Esprit 80 f5 with ZWO ASI224MC camera on iOptron HAZ31 mount (alt/az, GOTO). The laptop controls the camera only. The mount motion is controlled by the hand controller. Tracking only... no guiding. Subexposures kept to 15 seconds each. The advantages are that this is a stable but very light and very portable setup. No polar alignment was required. I only needed to point the logo on the mount due south, put the mount in zero position (pointing vertically up) and slew to a bright star. Then, use hand controller inputs to center the star and then to sync its position with the hand controller. After that, the mount accurately finds any target you wish. It was bitter cold outside with 10 mph winds.
