Help with my motor drive

Hi everyone!

I've recently bought a R.A Motor Drive and it's meant to track the object so it stays in the FOV but it seems to make the object move up!

I don't know why?

Please help,

Another silly question - have you set your latitude and aligned your RA axis to north? 

And what object are you talking about. I've found I can get pretty good tracking with stars and dsos but solar system objects will still drift a little.

Yes I've done most of it. I've set my latitude to about 51 degrees (where I live) and I may need a recap on how to align the scope to the north.

And yes of course there's a battery in it, here are some pictures

Thanks
