Which is the cheaper pan-tilt mount I can control with this device?

Is the circuitry on the Arduino board and drive boards listed in the materials section suitable for larger drive motors, say 100 N-cm? I have a 12.5 in. F6 Newtonian with an equatorial mount. It's a rather large instrument. Thomas (tmollman u.n.)

I am working on project in which 8-9 inputs and singal output given to a small spark generator with high speed which board is more suitable ?

Wow! Gotta say this is the most impressive arduino project I have yet seen! I have an older Celestron CG-5 mount from the 80s that I think is identical to the Vixen mount. Same gearing I think. It even looks the same as the one in your photo. Thank you so much for sharing your hard work!

Cool and amazing... thanks for share this project. I’am beginner in arduino, this project Will be my everest. I have a question, can I use a Binoculars instead of telescope ?

Greetings from Canada, the project is very impressive. I have a question that I would like to ask you, you think I can use this project to adapt my Dopsonian mount.

OMG! That's exactly what i've searching for! I have all components at current moment, but not exactly that on your manual. I have gears 16+60 teeths. And Nema 17 + TB6600 controllers. I hope i will find a way to configure it with your tutorial. Many thanks!

Thanks ! this is the project I have been looking for. I have downloaded the whole files & tried to compile. I am getting below error 'class String' has no member named'getDate' pls. help to resolve it.

Good evening, I'm glad to find you. I am building an equatorial mount, with stepper motors and harmonic drives. I can build this but the electronic side, so the control of this mount, I am not able to do it. In the case of my construction, the installation of sensors is not necessary, right? Do you think that, using your rduino module, I will be able to control my equatorial mount? Here are some technical data of my construction: 200 step stepper motor with precision gearbox and 1/10 reduction. Harmonic motion with 1/100 reduction. Total reduction 1/1000, so one step corresponds to an angular movement of 0.0018°. Thank you in advance for your answer Pascal PS: sorry for my bad english

Very impressive project.... However, i am unable to find a compatible tft screen... Can you advise on which screens are compatible with Arduino Due...

I have stumbled on your project, it might save my old EQ mount from the tip. The mount has 150mm worm wheels and Unipolar stepper motors. Will your project work with unipolar steppers? Thanks for sharing your hard work. 10 Star project. Stephen

I am getting my parts together, and would like to know if there is a schematic of this project and also ask where the resistors go?

Hi! i was planning on making a GOTO for a green laser pointer, and 3D print all parts. It would be my 1st arduino project. do you think that is too complex? thanks!

I'm defiantly going to build this one. Has there been any discussion on using rDUINOScope with an ALT/AZ mount?

Your project is very interesting however almost all of the detail schematics and wiring diagram link lead to malware site. I do not know if you are aware of this I know it looks like there has not been much activity on it in quite some time.

Hi.Very good project. I like it. But i have a question. The 10pc 1k ohm resistor where these items need to be intalled. Thx.
