Pete, Have you looked at the Don Clement focuser. I have one for my C11 and it can go from 1" when collapsed to 3" fully extended. It also has an option to add...
hi Don, lots of pieces on that page. Which ones did you get for your C11? It looks to be out of my price range (well, my wife's price range :-) but one can...
Sander, The one I have is the 2" model and added the hardware for the Robofocus but used a 12V geared DC motor instead. I've since changed to a 5V DC motor and...
