If purchased with the relevant lynx astro cable it's straight forward enough to run through eqmod for control via stellarium, Phd2 etc.

I'm getting very good guiding out of it, RMS is always below image scale anyway so no complaints there.

I have not had huge payloads on it, only a 72ed (with 50mm guide setup, DSLR etc) and a 127 mak, but the mount slews about smoothly and quietly with no issues. This is a very stable mount for astrophotography. Looking through the polar scope, you will see a graphic that enables you to offset quickly and easily from Polaris to the true north celestial pole. It also has a built-in polar alignment scope which makes it easier to align the mount's polar axis to the Earth’s axis of rotation (whilst not strictly necessary for Go-To pointing accuracy, tracking is improved if the mount is polar-aligned). Like Sky-Watcher's larger EQ6 Pro, the HEQ5’s counterweight shaft slides neatly into the mount's body for easy storage and transportation. Think Sat-Nav for astronomers! You can also control the mount from a laptop or desktop PC. Once aligned, SynScan Go-To will automatically place objects in the eyepiece field-of-view wherever they are in the sky.

All work, but three-star alignment is the 'gold standard' because it corrects for cone error. One-star, two-star and three-stars alignment routines are available and are easy to use. The SynScan computerised handset's two-line illuminated LCD screen is easy to read and navigate. It is probably the mount most recommended to someone wanting to begin astrophotography. A mount costing less than £1k with an impressive combination of ease of use, stability and tracking performance. The HEQ5 Pro mount is considered by many to be Sky-Watcher's 'sweet spot'. Part Number: 20886 This new model features a handset with a USB socket and dual-saddle (accepts both Vixen-type & Losmandy-type dovetail bars).
