Jasem, I believe this issue is resolved as a non-bug. It entirely seems
related to the RA-reporting oddity in the StarSense hand controller/firmware.
The issue did not occur with the NexStar+ hand controller, and I was able to
repeatedly perform polar alignments on the first try. I can't tell you how
ecstatic I was to see this finally work properly!
THANK YOU SO MUCH for sticking through this issue. Your support is phenomenal.
:-)
The only remaining question I have, if you feel like it, is: I did a PA, then
did another (because it's so fast and enjoyable now!). The second attempt was
almost not worth correcting; the correction vector was maybe 2mm long on the
screen. However, when I went back a couple hours later, the vector was about
an inch off. All scope adjustments were completely tight, I was on a 15x15ft
concrete pad, I had literally not even touched the scope, there was no wind,
etc. I always "move to switches" immediately before starting any PA, so that
shouldn't be it. All I did was pain to different imaging objects. In
contrast, my cheap little SkyGuider Pro running a heavy RedCat/Guider combo
held PA all night long. Can you think of anything that might have introduced
this error? I am assuming the PA routine should be highly repeatable with very
similar results.
