Just a tiny sneak peak on what I'm working right now. 

Since the first prototype of the single axis tracker is doing his longterm testing job I'm silently working on the dual axis support.

The current plan is to mount the single axis assembly on some kind of turret which can be rotated with a snail drive and a 12V gear motor. 

I hope the pictures give an idea about the construction.

Hi Andersen,
good timing, I just installed the first prototype a few hours ago on my "testbench" (a garage roof). I did not took pictures of the most recent state but I have some from two weeks ago. I will post a new log with infos about it...

Hi Fabian. I am very impressed about your Sunchronizer S1 project and I am following your great project with curiosity. I am especially curious about the progress on your dual axis solar tracker. Do you have any updates that you can unveil?
