Seems the Pegasus Astro Focuscube v.2 is said to work with this scope. But the scope has a narrow channel where the screws would go to attach to the scope. Not sure if I would need to buy a narrow bracket to fit in there or what. I don't have my scope so can't really tell how this would work.

f8 for imaging is very slow. My scope and reducer is f4.8. At f8 this requires 3x the exposure. Forget narrowband, you'll be taking 15 minute plus exposures
