Mate – that sounds awful!
I suspect the peg between the legs should mean fewer tripod collisions compared to the peg over a leg?
An American work colleague once came to one of our meets with a Celestron GoTo ‘scope and for the alignment, he had to point the OTA N (not S) and use Time Zone 14 in the Celestron Manual, although he had a Alt/Az Nexstar5 which may be a different hand controller/protocol than yours?
When he accidentally pointed the OTA S as the initial position, he got weird slews.
When he correctly pointed the OTA N but used the incorrect Time Zone he also got weird slews.
When he finally read the manual, pointed the OTA N and used Time Zone 14, everything appeared to work quite well.
Not sure if that really helps?
Cheers
Dennis
