Anyone know if this hand controller has the fix for the GPS rollover issue?

I know this is an old question, but short answer is yes! Providing you have the latest hand controller software. Because these units are new, they may have been sitting a long time, so you'll have to update the hand controller, which isn't too hard.

Does it come with the cable that connects to the telescope?

My telescope came only with provisIon for BATTERIES. This I have found to be unsatisfactory so I have purchased a cable and small ac power adaptor. The adaptor is: input 100 -240Volts Ac and output 11 - 13 volts. This is available from Amazon and works very well. If you plan to use your telescope remote from plug in electricity then I suggest you purchase a large 12volt power supply and again there is a selection of such power supplies with cables suitable for your particular Celestron

Can I "downgrade" the firmware to v4.22, or early v5?

I don't think so, but I have never tried that.

Will this controller work on an old Celestron nextar 114gt?

I’m pretty certain you need one of the older version 4 controllers for that model- maybe on Craig’s List or on the Anacortes used ads
