How do these alt-az telescopes get long exposures without field rotation? Does the CCD itself rotate?
@MattDieterich

You are correct Sean! The camera is attached to our rotating focuser, which will derotate the night sky to create pinpoint, long exposures.

So if you do an FEA analysis on the base, mount, and include the three 3/8" bolts your mounting everything on, what do you think is the weak point for vibration? Hint.: pretend everything is rubber and shake it. Now increase the modulus by a factor of 10 and shake it....same resonance modes.... Please correct me if I am wrong, but why on earth would you mount that with that connection method? I mean it would be

We mount the system via 3/4 inch threaded rod anchors and the direct drive motors have no problem with this connection. Standing off the azimuth base from the concrete pier top is important incase maintence needs to be performed and to access the inside of the azimuth axis base. All of this yields system tracking between 0.05-0.15 arcseconds of error.
