Just one more step to complete the configuration of my imaging setup.
One more evening of tilt correction, and I’ll be ready to get back to imaging.

First tests with StellarMate on Raspberry PI, the first impressions are positive, mount, camera and EAF work at first shot. App for iPad well done and Wi-Fi better than ASIAir. Does anyone use it? #astrophotography #astronomy 🔭

ふふふ、天体写真家の間では「安くてクソ性能が良い」と評判のロキノン135mm 2.0のマウントをキヤノンEFから3DプリントしたM54マウントに交換し、電子ローテータ及び電子フィルターホイールを付けてLRGBSHO撮影できちゃうように組み立てたぜ！ あとは電子フォーカス機を取り付ければ完璧。あ、コントロール用のStellarMate機もコンフィグしないと……┐(´~`;)┌

Another disasterous session with NINA and I've had it with that! Two crashes and an autofocus plug in that's hopeless! Back to the ASIAIR plus and probably the Stellarmate Pro/ Astrostation!

やっぱ海外とかに天体写真リグ持って行くならなるべくコンパクトに纏めたいのでやはりコントローラはASIAirみたいなマシンが望ましいよね。でも、マウント以外はZWO製品で囲い込みかけられるのでアウト。となるとStellaVitaなのかな？と思って調べて見るとまだローテータに全く対応してないらしいのでこれもアウト。
取りあえずはStellarMateなのかなぁ。ややこしくてOS購入したのに断念・放置してあったんだけど、再チャレンジするか……

I've been using it for a few years now and just love it. I don't use the Stellarmate App as much as a good old VNC connection to the RPi5 from my laptop, from the comfort of my couch 🙂.

Different tools for different people/jobs. I started with APT and moved to EKOS (aka Astroberry, which is basically Stellarmate). I find that the development effort for useful plugins is in the NINA world so I switched there. I'm not going to tech-shame you though. Use what works! 😆

I will try with ekos. I have an raspberry pi with stellarmate too, never try, I will.

I find kstars on which StellarMate is based to be pretty reliable that’s why I after years of using it running on a RPi4 I bought the StellarMate pro. The app can be a bit flakey but using a vpn connection to access the desktop version of Kstars is perfect

I think that if it hadn't been for ASIAir I would never have started astrophotography. I still have a Raspberry with StellarMate ready for when I want to change.

Bon, j'avance progressivement dans l'utilisation de stellarmate OS.
C'est franchement pas user friendly.
J'arrive à lancer une vidéo, avec toute l'image (j'ai changé le câble usb3 d'origine zwo par qque chose de plus fiable).

Bon, ben j'ai donc lâché l'affaire avec stellarmate.
Test avec un asiair, 30s de démarrage, tout ce qui est branché dessus est reconnu du 1er coup, et la cam tourne sans jouer les intermittences de transmission de données.

Nice! Greetings from Santa Rosa. I was going to ask about your rig when I saw your Crescent. Mine's similar: EvoStar 120ED, EQ6-R Pro, QHY268, Optolong LRGB & SHO, PPBAG2. Stellarmate and PHD2 on RPi5. Your images give me hope; all I need to do now is make sense of PixInsight. 😎

C'est en quelque sorte ça en effet. Un RPi qui fait tourner une Debian avec KStars/Ekos pour l'acquisition et qui pilote le matériel avec les pilotes Indi. Tout ça est 100% Open Source mais comme je suis fainéant et qu'il faut bien soutenir tout ce travail, j'ai acheté une licence Stellarmate OS.

Ca fait un moment que j'utilise ça. Plusieurs possibilités: se connecter au serveur Indi du RPi via un client Ekos sur son PC/Mac; se connecter au RPi via VNC, ou par l'application mobile Stellarmate (j'utilise pas). Avantage: compatible avec tout et pas juste du matos Zwo (ex: focuser PrimaLuce).
