subject: Pikon and settings for go

Hi!
I printed a pikon -  -
and attached the HQ camera to it.
I put the focus mechanism onto a small stepper motor -28byj-48-
and wrote a program to control the thing via a gamepad.

So I point it to saturn and jupiter, and run raspistill and raspimov to
get some images.

But they are kind of blurry .- which can depend an many things like
being low in the sky, thus lots of atmosphere to see through and so.

I did colimation as well.

I did not try the moon yet with the HQ camera (cloudy) , but I did with
a rpi camera version 2 which I had before - and well - not so good. But
images of closer objects - like a powerline 2 km away are good

So - I wonder - does anyone else in this group use pikon, and
then how do you get good images?

I juset found autostackert and PIPP which did not give the gain I hoped
for. but perhaps with more practise
