    2.0 Stars Motors seems to be really sloppy and very imprecise.
  2. from www.amazon.com
    5.0 Stars I also like the fact that the hand controller and motor controllers are firmware upgradable now.

    5.0 Stars Motors - Yes the motors are just a tad noisy but not that bad.

    1.0 Star The first scope had to be returned to Celestron because the tracking motor would not function on the day that I unpacked it.
  3. from www.amazon.com
    1.0 Star The first night I took it out, the motor didn't work correctly.

    4.0 Stars Only thing I would have to say negatively about this unit is the mount that holds it to the Goto device - mine slid off one night as the vibrations of the movement loosened the screw clamping the telescope to the motor.

    4.0 Stars Otherwise the motorized drive and finder scope with laser pointer work great!
