When I'm doing a modeling from a cold start I would center two or three stars in the East and when I try to model a star in the West the hand unit resets and it's as though I'm starting all over again. It would do the same if I went from West to East. What I've ended up doing is just centering two or three stars on either the East or West but not both. It seems to do an okay job because the goto puts my target within my eyepiece FOV.
