In this video I go over the system I installed to make the roll off roof on my observatory automatic.
This can be used on small builds also and can be seen in my video archives under my budget build series.
Please visit my website www.Astrobloke.co.uk where you will find links to the items I used and software you will need.
Any questions please just get in touch by leaving a comment.
