Meade LXD75

Hi all,
My question to the forum is regard of the Meade LXD75.
Do I have to by and cannibalize a mount (~$1200 @ Bintel) to get a
flexible servo go-to system with motors?
Motors not available separately


I had looking for a drive system for my old eq mount, but the servos are
expensive and don't have go-to. The steppers not cheaper, like EQ6
upgrade (and not have worm ratio flexibility...).

The Meade Autostar has the flexible worm gear ratio reprogram,
and not need a computer to operate.

Is it worth it?
