The only 'cheap' stand-alone GoTo I'm aware of is the Cube, but these have had a history of problems. I'm sorry to hear you've had problems with your ETX, but it does sound like it's time to move on. There's an olde saying... good and cheap, pick one or the other.

Good luck!




Should my ETX 125 mount go belly up, I'd probably consider the Ioptron Mini Tower. Not perfect, but substantially better than the cube IMHO.
