The new HEQ5-R Pro is the further development of the very popular HEQ5 Pro mount.
The new version offers
- greater stability and load capacity for astrophotography thanks to larger diameter worm gears.
- improved precision for tracking and guiding with more teeth on the RA and DEC worm gears.
- Toothed belt drive with minimal backlash, quieter running and smoother drive with higher torque
- easier connection options with external power supply and USB ports
- Improved pole height adjustment with a larger adjustment range
- Built-in SNAP connection for camera control
- PPEC worm error correction function (avoids constant repeated training)
- Built-in carrying handle for more convenient transport
The included computer-controlled Synscan™ hand controller allows you to position the telescope on a desired object or select pre-programmed tours of the night sky. The user-friendly menu system allows automatic tracking of over 42,000 objects in the night sky.
With the HEQ5-R Pro, you get a complete system for tracking a telescope for almost any application: a real workhorse, now improved and modernised once again!
