Yes you can use it to control the EQ6 mount. It does up to a 3 star alignment. I have applied the latest firmware which allows it to autoguide properly in the southern hemisphere. You have full control over the slewing speed. So it can be used as a planetarium and hand controller in one device
Rider has a fairly good review here
