Hi All,

I have a strange problem with my mount (AstroPhysics) under INDI. When I try to point at the target which is 2 or 3hours before transit, the mount tries to place the telescope on the east side of the mount (not the west, I'm on the northern hemisphere), which typically causes a collision with the tripod. It is not a matter of time or location settings (I gave a GPS dongle and it works ok). It occurs on AP legacy and AP GTOCP2 drivers, and with Kstar and Cartes du Ciel (SkyCharts). So it looks like a problem with the driver or its settings. When I switch to Windows the slewing works ok, so it is not the problem of the hardware or the mount position stored in encoders neither. Interestingly, Ekos knows that it is on the wrong side because in the mount tab it says that the next flip will be after 14-15 hours. When the target is far from transit (eg. 5 hours) the mount slews ok. Do you have any idea what am I doing wrong, or what should I change with settings?
My setup is based on raspberry pi with astroberry.
