You could purchase the Gemini system with higher torque Maxon servo motors although I don't see that on their website at the moment. I never felt the need for these but that's my opinion.
Brendan, Losmandy are changing the Gemini motors again.That might be why there aren't any shown on the replacement parts page. A mount ordered now might have Maxons or the new ones depending on when it was built.
