ISS / Satellite tracking

My iOptron AZMPRO supports satellite tracking nicely.

I recently bought an AM3 - because of other limitations of the iOptron mount. The AM3 is just great. I would love to try the AM3 in AltAz mode with the SkyTrack software.... Currently, weather does not permit any testing.

I now own an AM5 mount and was attempting to use SkyTrack (software for tracking satellites). It appears to work fine in leapfrog mode but does not work in continuous tracking mode - I believe a modification to the ASCOM driver is needed in order to support continuous tracking mode. Is this planned?

Bump. Has there been a driver update to allow the ZWO AM5 to track in realtime? It looks like ASCOM Platform 7 - Release Candidate has in the release notes "DriverAccess now has convenience methods to retrieve device state in a single call.". Has anyone tried this new driver update??

This issue is preventing me from buying an AM3/AM5 mount - please address it and reply here. It appears as though this is a relatively minor software fix in the mount drivers. So it shouldn't be too difficult to rectify this and make continuous satellite tracking possible with these otherwise terrific mounts.
