Hi Gus, I still use an old cave mount which is similar to the samson mount. The motor drive on its own does a reasonable job at tracking with a well polar aligned scope for short exposures (30 sec). The drive corrector makes this easier and helps to control any periodic errors. My drive corrector is also a power invertor so it runs of a 12v car battery.
