East Heavy
I keep hearing the term East Heavy and hoping someone can enlighten me.
So.......
- I have an EQR6 in the southern hemisphere.
- To my knowledge east heavy refers to the mount's gears being engaged which in turn will aid in reduced backlash.
- So the confusion for me lies in this....
If the mount is in the northern hemi it will track east through north onto west, meaning right to left.
Therefore, the opposite will apply for the southern hemi.
The mount will track east through south onto west.
Therefore, the gears must move in opposing directions.
Does this mean in the north it is East heavy and the south, west heavy?
As usual I may be looking for a problem here that does not exist.
