Simple Polar Alignment Method for Southern Hemisphere
If you're struggling to polar align your star tracker then this video is for you ..!!! Often the polar scopes fitted to trackers are awkward and difficult to use ... especially for those with poor eyesight, so in this video I'll explain the methods I use to get very accurate polar alignment in the Southern Hemisphere.
These methods are just as suitable for the Northern Hemisphere. Please let me know in the comments section below your polar aligning methods for star trackers. Also there are links to the gear & apps I used below.
