Fleshed I also submitted a few log reports.
I also posted on the CloudyNights smart telescopes forum and it looks like these problems aren't unique to us. It would be nice to know if it's a hardware issue (and I need to return it) or a possible firmware (v1.91) issue. Although if it was a firmware issue, they'd probably be lots more complaints...
I love the Stargazing mode, but no luck with the other modes (where I either see a continuous spinning wheel or a totally dark display, like it's not even reading the sensor...).
