Hi,

Does any know of a good UK source for replacement slow motion control knobs
for my EQ5 mount.

(plastic ones are broken)


Ian,

I've got the same problem. I did replace one with one from RS part
259-7039

http://www.rswww.com

However, it is nothing like the original - much smaller. I now use a two
axis drive and don't worry about it...

Hi All
Replaced one a few months age and last week the other one went,

Still waiting a replacement from Hinds


A drive does seem to be the answer but what a price.
