Like Paul advised you have to polar align pretty tight (under a arc minute ) before you attempt EQMOD and Stellarium for your Goto and navigation
Once polar aligned, EQMOD and Stellarium are very accurate in finding targets
I wrote some procedures for EQMOD and Stellarium back in November for folk who use Skywatcher mounts ( both with the older handcontroller port and the some current models with the new USB2B port). I wanted to prove the latest version of Stellarium 0.20.3 which is now Ascom supported and therefore you no longer require the old 3rd party driver StellariumScope
Happy to share if your interested, I just need your mount details and what version of Stellarium your using
Cheers
Martin
