With your mount does yours seem a bit lose when you touch it?
Our small goto nexstar if you touch the scope with a small amount of pressure will move the scope the nut on the inside needs changing it is a lock nut but a elcheapo lock nut works it way loose buy its self and the washer behind it is not the best either.
Will take a few pics and show you which nut ! Also if we tighten the nut up and manually move the scope you can see the nut undo a little each time we move the scope.
This nut is not to be tightened up to much just enough too much will bind the gear to motor.
Hold a spanner on the nut on pic 1 and a spanner on the nut on pic 2 make small adjustments( don't go over board )
We just done it then and made it a lot better will try tomorrow have a sun filter.
