[QUOTE="guest poster, post: 579099, member: 262401"] I don't think you 'can' tighten a motor up enough on that tubing or really tighten the bolts enough that hold it all together .. it will just crush/ distort if you try to really tighten it all up enough and when it does.... you lose your 100% vertical pole- it goes anywhere as it distorts and it still isn't up to it. Most on here on a 1m would say use T & Ks with a short length of very solid scaffold tube (c. 600mm) with the motor bolted in the middle... (see satelliteman's quick guide pictorial)... I think you will be for ever having this 'after strong winds' problem until you strengthen or change the bracket. [/QUOTE]
