I reckon that skywatcher should be standing on the shoulders of you 'modders'. The celestron/synscan ascom drivers are very ordinary whilst the mount itself is a beauty. If they want the eq8 to play with the big boys in the mount game them they need to step up to the proverbial plate. With this new product on the market and first in Australia, there is a window of opportunity to have some say. I say take that opportunity, but I need to gather some stats first
