AZ-EQ5 + Polemaster balance problem.

[Coastliner]

Hi All,

I'm trying to balance my AZ-EQ5 as perfectly as I can, all was going well (all 3 axes) until I added the Polemaster. As this is off-axis it applies torque to the RA causing the axis to rotate until the Polemaster is hanging at the lowest point.

I need to couterbalance this, any ideas how?

or,

Do I need to counterbalance this? Am I being too picky?

I have considered taking the arm off and gluing the Polemaster onto the on-axis point of the top cover, but again, is this overkill?

Thanks,

Neil.
