No, this is not normal. You have a defective hand controller.
Or it may be that you have the motors plugged into the wrong jacks on the
drive control box. (I've done this before- the scope keeps moving the DEC
axis! <g>) Be sure that you have the upper motor connected to DEC and the
lower one connected to RA.
But I would think the axis would merely be swapped in that case.
If that is not the problem, then indeed you have a defective drive system.
It is probably the hand controller but could possibly be the drive control
box.
Good point, there is a chance it could possibly be the drive control also.
