As it will, it still thinks its on Saturn.
The encoders are on the motor, not the OTA
So you go
encoder-motor-gearbox-worm-wormwheel-clutch-OTA
By releasing the clutch, you have no effect on the encoders
The scope just keeps on keeping on, ( happily unaware that you have released the clutches ). Ie it still thinks its tracking Saturn.
Sooooo, when you have rebalanced, YOU must manually recentre Saturn in yr EP, "without using the motors".
If you do this, as the scope still thinks its pointing at saturn, the world is happy again.
A quick synch then tidies it up ( but dont synch on Saturn, use a star )
