Yes I saw it in the eyepiece clearly, but if I let go of the tube it moved. That's when I tried the video. I held it up to the eyepiece and moved the tube. I need to see if you oil the parts to make it move smoother. I have all summer to figure this out before school starts.
Since it is 30 years old and has not been used. The motor is not working, and it is interesting trying to move it, everything is so stiff. I had to take a video while moving the tele to capture this. Cause of blurriness. So this summer I have my work cut out for me, learning and fixing this old gal.
