Another AZ_GTI EQ Mode Question

[johngm]

Hi All, and I appreciate any feedback.

Today, I took delivery of a skywatcher AZ-GTI mount, to be used in EQ mode. I set it up indoors, to update the software, and installed the Windows Synscan software. All works fine. I am still awaiting delivery of 12mm bar for my counterweight. What I have noticed, there appears to be a fair amount of "sticktion" on the RA axis when the clutch is realeased. So, to other owners of this mount head, is this normal  ? and if it is, how do you achieve Balance ?

Regards John
