Can anyone help me find a motor drive for my telescope?
the short tube Newtonian reflector telescope for my equator. the manual gives me a accessories list, but do not know where I can find accessories. for the drive that says "the clock motor unit (AR only) Code No.: 5001." I know for a European-style engine, but I can not find it anywhere. if anyone can help would greatly appreciate it!
Who does the reach and where are located. Will be something like this: http://www.telescope.com/control/celestron/celestron-accessories/eq-1m-orion-electronic-telescope-drive-system

Meade ETX105EC Telescope w/ Autostar Controller (497) and Tripod (884)
List Price: |
DescriptionThe ETX105EC is the newest model in Meade's popular ETX series. Independent reviewers have consistently praised the ETX Maksutov-Cassegrain telescopes for their excellent optics but questioned some of the ergonomic features, especially the finder scope. The optics fully live up to the hype, and the ergonomic problems can generally be surmounted with the right eyepiece. How good are the optics? In a word, superb. On one of those rare winter nights with perfect viewing conditions, the included Autostar computer's guided tour of "tonight's best" showed me one beautiful view after another. The Double Cluster in Perseus showed off the subtle colors of its red, yellow, and blue-white stars. The faint glow of NGC 2158 was plainly visible just west of colorful star cluster M35. With a magnification of 150X, the Cassini division in Saturn's rings was obvious all the way around Saturn, as were cloud bands and the dark polar region on the planet itself. When I boosted the power to 200X, the stars in the heart of M42, Orion's trapezium, were a beautiful sight. I saw little diffraction rings around the four brighter stars, and the fifth star "E" was glimmering on the edge of visibility. The model 884 tripod is a big improvement over the model 883 that was designed for the original ETX90. I especially like the spring loaded captive mounting screws that pop into place when you get the base lined up with the mounting holes. The tripod comfortably handled the ETX105 in the straight up Alt/Az position. It's probably a little light though if you want to use an equatorial alignment for photography. The Autostar controller delivered excellent pointing accuracy. My usual set up routine starts with centering Polaris in the scope, then leveling the optical tube. This automatically sets the telescope's 'home position' within one degree of true North and level. After a careful setup the other night, the 'easy align' routine put the first alignment star, Rigel, inside the field of view. And the second star, Procyon, was just outside the edge of the field. Easy as pie. (Nightwatch by Terence Dickinson will introduce you to these brighter stars by name.) Even without precise alignment to North, the alignment stars were close enough that I had no trouble with the setup. The guided tour still placed every object but Saturn in the low power field of view, and Saturn was just outside the field. Now about those ergonomics. The finder scope is a problem because it is so close to the eyepiece that my nose gets in the way when I use eyepieces smaller then the included 26mm Super Plossl. If you're inclined to peer through the eyepiece with your left eye, it may not be an issue. I'm right eye dominant, so I can't use smaller eyepieces for higher magnification. I got around this problem by using my Celestron Ultima 2X barlow to raise the eyepiece for high power viewing. The Ultima barlow introduces a little extra reflection on bright objects, but the views are still fabulous. If I were to spring for just one more good eyepiece to go with this telescope I'd try an Orion 10.5mm Lanthanum. About 150X seems to be a sweet spot with this scope, a magnification that offers great views of the planets without the diffraction rings around stars becoming very noticeable. The other well known ergonomic issue is the small and hard to reach focus knob. Meade would be happy to sell you a #1244 Electric Focuser. I found a third party Flex Focus adapter worked just fine. --Jeff Phillips Pros: Superb optics Autostar computer Small and portable Cons: The finder is too close to the eyepiece The Meade ETX-105EC is among the most advanced electronically controlled telescopes. Manufactured with an aluminum fork mount dedicated specifically to its size and aperture, the ETX-105EC Astro telescope moves effortlessly across the skies on ball-bearing axes, in either manual or electronic modes. The Autostar controller turns the ETX-105EC into an automatic celestial-object locating system. Just plug the Autostar into the telescope's HBX port in place of the standard-equipment electronic controller, do a quick telescope alignment, and you're ready to observe any object in the Autostar's 30,000-object database. The ETX-105EC yields 36 percent more light-collecting power than the ETX-90EC. The entire range of celestial objects--the eight major planets, the Moon, galaxies, nebulae, star clusters--as well as terrestrial objects, may be observed with a significant, and immediately apparent, increase in resolution and image brightness. At the same time, the ETX-105EC maintains most of the compactness and ultraportability of the smaller-aperture ETX-90EC. Use the standard pushbutton electronic controller at any of four dual-axis speeds: 8x sidereal for image centering in the main telescope at high power; 32x for image centering at lower powers or for pushbutton object tracking in the altazimuth mode; slow mode for image centering in the viewfinder or for terrestrial tracking of nature and sightseeing; or medium speed for fast slewing across the sky. The observer can instantly select any of these speeds simply by depressing the speed button on the controller. The telescope's ultraportable design allows the viewer to view from any flat surface, be it a window sill, car hood, or picnic table. The optional tripod will raise the telescope to any comfortable height. Features
