    Thank you for the video. I already have a ZWO EAF for one of my telescopes and I recently purchased the Touptek AAF for my secondary equipment on Aliexpress. I have to say that I am really satisfied with the Touptek electronic focuser. Honestly, I don't find any differences in quality, but there are quite a few differences in the price.

      I’m glad to hear it! What LRGB filters do you use there?

    Thanks for the video. Just received 2” type. But struggling to install the driver. Please do a video how to install the driver as it’s asking for the Ascom driver update 2 to install first before the driver installation.

      Interesting, I haven't experienced this issue. Make sure your ASCOM platform is up to date. Perhaps it is the reason of the issue.
      By the way, here is a direct link to ASCOM drivers for all the ToupTek devices that I downloaded and install on my PC: www.touptek-astro.com/dl_software/ToupTekASCOMSetup.exe

      @@AstroCreation thanks for the reply. The issue was with .NET framework which was not updated. Tried many methods but finally Windows 11 reinstall/repair resolved the issue. Now the AFW is working fine.

    Once I have installed some filters, it just starts to slip. Has anyone encountered this as well?

      Interesting. Could you tell a litttle more about the filter and conditions that lead to slipping? I want to see if I can repeat the problem

      @@AstroCreation Figured it out...just had to open it up, loosen the screws on the little motor, push it a bit against the wheel and then tighten it in place - it's a bit trial and error but working like a charm now.
