Re: Building a Solar Parabolic

how sharp is the focus? If it's not too sensitive, you could use a non-feedback system. I'm assuming you have one axis of rotation. Just program what angle it needs to be at each time of day, have it move a bit when needed. The position will change over the year, so program that in as well.
