"I replaced a damaged Autostar II on my RCX400 with the CLICKSTAR. Setup was instant. The joystick makes finding and centering objects much faster - I didn't expect to love it this much! Highly recommended for any classic Meade GOTO scope."
"My Autostar II was long dead and impossible to find at a reasonable price. I plugged in the CLICKSTAR and boom! my LX200GPS is back in action. It runs the scope perfectly and the joystick slewing is a major upgrade from the old arrows. Absolutely worth it."
"When my Autostar III started glitching, I figured my LX850 was done for. Then I found the CLICKSTAR - no nonsense, no confusing updates - just a direct replacement that works. Joystick navigation feels intuitive and much more enjoyable than the old key layout."
"My Autostar II died mid-viewing and left me pointing manually like it was 1955. CLICKSTAR fixed that. It' smarter, and that joystick had folks at our club asking if I'd installed autopilot. I just smiled and didn't tell them I had no idea what I was doing."
"I'm only 28 but I love old Meade gear. Picked up a beat-up LX200GPS with a dead Autostar II. CLICKSTAR brought it back instantly. I grabbed the joystick version and wow-slewing feels like gaming. Precise, smooth, fun. Total game-changer for a vintage scope."
"I bought my RCX400 new when I had darker hair and fewer grandkids. The original handset started glitching last year, and I thought I'd seen my last goto alignment. CLICKSTAR proved me wrong. Simple install, clear screen, and no menu lag. Wish this existed 10 years ago."
