Hi Darren
I'm looking for a good mount for astrophotography.
Do you know what type of drive motor can be attached and whether this would be ok?
Cheers

I'm not too sure Andy I think there is a mod kit available for this mount.
Other ice members should be able to help you out on that one.
Depends on your Astrophotoghraphy pay load as well.

There is an upgrade kit available, for the eq5 and heq5, they are very expensive though. I paid $695 for the upgrade kit in my HEQ5 setup which is currently for sale on Ebay. I think the EQ5 kits are about the same price.

Thanks for the input.
Sounds a bit expensive for me by the time I got the mod done.
