NO not to track, just to push button follow instead of keep trying to find the knobs on the mount you hold the control box and press a button whilst viewing.

Been ordering various parts from Amazon, again I am no electrician but it is fun I could NOt find the boxes I needed to house the motors then I finally came across whatever guitar stomp boxes are and have two coming.

So far I am enjoying the work, I even got a vice off Amazon for £8 that should have been £28 they had the wrong price on it :)

a few more

They will fit in a similar way to the esprit focusser shown I made last month but in a sealed box
