Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...] Improve the user experience with a display which tells the user the status of the tracking. Trim the tracking speed. Turn on / off guiding input. Perhaps even let the user select other tracking speeds.

Describe the solution you'd like A clear and concise description of what you want to happen. A display and user input. The GPAD might be the display device. A rotary encoder with push button might be the input device.

Describe alternatives you've considered A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered. Currently 20221221 the device has a single push button for user input which requires using either short pushes or long pushes to change device state. The device has a single LED for output to indicate state.

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here. Would like something powered off of the same supply as the motor and controller for simpler power supply.
