I would like to reopen the descussion about the implementation of a three star alignment routine for the ALT-AZ-mode into the AM5 firmware. I consider it extremely desirable for visual use to be able to bring the mount’s internal coordinate system into alignment with the actual position of the stars, which requires a coordinate transformation rather than a polynomical approximation, which appears to be applied in the existing multistar method. It would be a big advantage to have a good visual pointing accuracy.
