I think it's also worth mentioning here there is much more to a mount's suitability for astro-imaging than an super accurate RA rate.

High machining accuracy, mechanical stiffness and high natural frequency of vibration are...pardon the pun..paramount. Having a super accurate drive on a bowl of jelly is simply a recipe for astro-imaging misery.
