So I am running my AM5 for the first time since I received it 7 hours ago.
The meridian flip was just supposed to happen.
It failed. The mount went about 2 degrees past the meridian and just stopped.
I had the flip set to happen 5 degrees after the meridian.
I tested it indoors and it worked fine but then I set it to happen 1 degree after the meridian.
Tomorrow I'll try it outside with 1 degree. Hope it will work.
Other than this - everything is working just great!
The guiding is very good (to my standards). 0.5-0.6 total RMS.
On par with CEM40 which I had for some time. A bit better than RST-135. Much better than HEQ5.
