Hi
i'm building an AstroEQ board for my old EQ5 mount :
https://www.astroeq.co.uk/tutorials.php
This is really a great project.
You can follow my attempt here (in french) :

I took the Arduino option.
It's working quite well on Windows despite driver problems i'm having atm.
It's a little bit more difficule with Indi, i have two problems.
The first is a timeout when connecting, it lasts ~15s before connection to serial port is up.
I think this is an arduino related problem, but any i take any suggestion.
The second is that after connection, when i set sideral tracking, my RA motor doesn't move.
The only way to make it move is to make a brief slew to W or E with the motion buttons.
After, everything seems to go fine.
I've attached my log, i must say i couldn't find anything
