The mount is over 2 yrs old we have only had it about 2 or 3 weeks we bought it to test our 4way Bluetooth modules out on and did not like the Grrrrr sound of the Gears so we did the belt mod kit as we have a video to do on the 4 Way Bluetooth to upload to YouTube just waiting on the Boxes to come back from the manufacturer .
Once the video is done this mount (mount only ) is for sale so then it is off to buy a EQ8 so we can test the 4 Way Bluetooth module on that then we will be selling them.
We have tested the 4 Way Bluetooth on the NEQ6 with EQmod ,Stellarium scope and Stellarium ,the sky version 5 and the sky x which all worked well.
We have tested the new belt kit inside at the moment as we only finished it off today but mounted the 10" Newtonian and slewed around with 10kg of counter weight on it with the extra length of counter weight shaft as well.
We had no problem with slewing all different angles we gave it a good test .
Now the rain will be with us the next few days Murphy's law can't wait to take it outside for a night and try it.
