Hi White Rabbit
Not quite sure what rubber banding is - could you be referring to backlash?
I use PHD for guiding and I noticed that a fair bit of DEC backlash was indicated during training. I undid the plate on the side of the HEQ5Pro and found that the gears for both RA and DEC were exposed. An Allen key was required to loosen the gear attachments and move them into a nice snug fit. I now notice that backlash is negligible on both RA and DEC axes as indicated on both PHD and paddle movements.
Hope this helps.
Cheers Peter
