you just need a Dob Driver II. works wonderfully, then you don't have to
rush to change EPs at high power :) the DD2 takes a bit to get on the
correct speed/track for an object but once you get it (at low power) you're
set to go high-power and stay right on track. and i've found that once i
track 1-2 objects, i can usually center just about anything within 90
degrees of the last object and just track the new one automatically.
