@ChadGrays ... To shorten a long story ... Celestron CGEM-5 and parts are now Obsolete and unavailable... Motor control boards are failing.... this is a perfect solution to make a 65 pound paper weight functional again.... It's 1 year later from your videos on this and I'm wondering if you finished your tinkering with this using Onstep and if you're willing to share your solution with CGEM-5 paperweight owners?

The easiest is switch to stepper motors and use OnStep to control them.
