That is the way I understand that the Gemini systems works as well. I think there are some settings in the Gemini that control how far past the meridian it will track before it flips.

Most of the targets I have been imaging since I got the mount are close enough to the meridian that my mount will tend to start out pointing west and looking "back" past the meridian to the east so no flip is necessary during the session.
