very nice,
how good was the tracking, was the mount keeping the station in the center of the fov easily ?

Thanks Dave.
The mount tracked well initially. However, when it came towards the meridian, it had a tough time keeping up.

No. The length of time needed to flip and retrack the ISS would be too long.
