Apparently there is a bug in the system. If you set your telescope FL correctly in telescope definition area, then in the optical train add the focal reducer, it dose not "do the math" and give the correct focal length. You have to set the focal length WITH the reducer factored in the telescope definition field. In my case, instead of setting 710mm and a reducer of 0.8 and getting around 586mm, I have to set the telescope at 568mm. Jasem is aware of the issue and there should be a fix pushed out in a few weeks to the new version.
