Well you look on YouTube and all you see is people holding the phone against the mount, so why not make a proper fixture and easy to setup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alec Posted October 29, 2017 Author Share Posted October 29, 2017 No the screen you see is just tweaking in on Polaris. Bolt it in place and follow the promps left, right, up down etc. Used it before by hand and works great, but never mounted rigid on the mount. Seems super accurate will see later when its dark. App is called PS Align Pro £1.99 apps store and has a wealth of features Bottletopburly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
