Say Kent, I've been following this thread on the sidelines.
Does the Gemini have an elliptical tangent lobe to drive it in DEC like
the non GOTO MI250's?

Steve:
No.
The Gemini I've been discussing is on a Losmandy G11, which has a complete DEC gear and worm.
That being said, there will always be some backlash in such a system.
The worm can be adjusted to minimize the backlash and backlash compensation (TVC) can be set to minimize it further.
