The only backlash, if any, will be in how well the worm shaft mates to the worm gear, all other backlash should be eliminated, But then again I am no expert.

My main issues are with goto's not being precise when you re-slew to the same target even if on the same side of the pier and of course the periodic error.

with the belts, I imagine the backlash would be very low so apart from removing PE, would one expect to see an improvement in goto's as well?
anyone tested this?

Cheers
