Have had some issues when using SkyFi 3 with my USB Starsense hand control. Using SkySafari 5 Pro. I do the alignment with my Starsense HC, no problem. I then, typically use my iPad Mini to control my scope via SkyFi 3 and seems to work okay but my gotos are usually off a little. If I use my StarSense HC, gotos are typically dead on. After I use the HC a time or two, it says that I need to align. I can still do gotos with the iPad but they are off a little. As long as I keep the SkyFi disconnected, the HC works perfectly. I just upgraded the firmware from 1.3.3 to 1.3.4, but may be a few days before I get a chance to see how that works. Does anyone have any input on tis ?

Garry Snow First time in almost 3 months I made it out to my observatory. Figured I'd do the firmware update for the SkyFi 3. Went to the App store, can't find it. Little help please.

Thanks!

Garry Snow Thanks...... I did but apparently I'm missing something. What am I looking for ?

Garry Snow Maybe I'm calling it the wrong thing. I assumed that it's a firmware fix for the miscommunication issue, J2000 related, between the AVX mount and Sky Safari 5 Pro. Still haven't found anything.
