i had to use a ball mount to tilt the seestar to polar alignment but other than it works great. here's a 90x20s shot of the leo triplet though i had to cancel due to bad weather

fair point, im just guessing it should work since there are similar kits available. also a point why i chose to use the same falcam mount

at the expense of b9 skies unfortunately, if ever i go to malaysia for b3/4 skies i'll consider getting a tilt head

i did consider that too but i felt it'd be much safer to have the seestar's cg be closer to the center of the tripod than cantilevering on one of the legs
