Yup it sure does. My understanding is this is the feedback loop mechanism and controler keeping the motor moving at siderial rate and adjusting based on closed loop sensors.

Do you notice vibration as well from your RA motor ? When its tracking if you put both hands on the black RA cover can you feel a slight vibration ? I am told this is normal but want to verify with other owners.

Also one other question. When you trained your PEC which side of meridean did you pick a star on ? and did you tick the box saying data gathered on west ? A screenshot of your pec screen showign this check box would be helpful.
