ASIAIR and IOPTRON SkyGuider Pro 2021

JM41

Hello,
I would like buying a Ioptron skyguider pro and I already have ASIAIR system (old version).
I wish to use this mount on mountain because of its small weight. I use a tahashi FS60C and ZWO1600 mm pro, ASI120mini and I want to use guiding with ST4 on mount.
I have seen there are problem to use guiding, plate solve, polar alignment on this mount with ASIAIR.

Are the problems find solve by ZWO or not ?

Thank you for yours answers.

Hello JM41

i have been using the iOptron SGP with the first ASIAir (non-Pro) since v1.3 with a 290MM mini on a ZWO 30mm guide scope for ST4 guiding on top of a WO SpaceCat51. I have never had any problems so far. I think polar alignment is „as complicated“ as with all other mounts. Just remember to turn Dec-guiding off since the SGP does not have a Dec motor. Once plate solve succeeded i simply sync to mount and then start guiding. I achieved pretty good results with it. Ymmv though. Good luck!
