StarGo Avalon M-Zero – Connection impossible, looking for the latest StarGo version

Hello,

I have been struggling for several sessions to connect my Avalon M-Zero mount.

From what I can see, the issue might be related to the StarGo version provided on the USB key. It seems to be an old version, and apparently a newer one is available for download on the Avalon website. I have requested access to the download area (a bit old-school, to be honest 😅), but it has not been approved yet.

Since the weather is finally clear, I was really hoping to be able to use my mount.

Would anyone happen to have the latest StarGo version and be willing to share it via SwissTransfer or another file-sharing service?

That would be incredibly appreciated and could save a few potentially clear nights.

Thanks a lot in advance, and happy new year to everyone!

Clear skies,

Carlos
