Wasted $150 on a cheap star tracker that wobbled like crazy

I bought one of those budget star trackers off Amazon for astrophotography and the damn thing couldn't hold steady for more than 30 seconds before trailing started. Anyone else get burned by a low-end mount they'd recommend avoiding?

Oh man, I got the exact same crap. That little mount shook like a paint mixer every time the wind blew even a little bit.

Yeah my buddy had the same issue. Windy day and his camera almost took a dive.
