Has anyone fitted a skywatcher auto focuser to one of these scopes ? If so can you let me know the best way to do this. Thanks

Thanks ill look to see if that's an option on the Altair Astro starwave. Just need to find an off cut from some angle aluminium ;)

Taking a look at the bits that came with the auto focuser I can't make out how you have fixed the shafts. On the black flexible coupler only one end fits the focuser or motor shaft the other end with two screws has too large a bore ???

Also I can't figure out how you have and slip in that arrangement like you get with the o ring in the silver coupler.

Did you have to make up a bush to get the black Flexi coupler to fit the shaft??
