HIGH-RESOLUTION ABSOLUTE ENCODER ON BOTH RA/DEC AXIS
With the High-Resolution ABSOLUTE ENCODER on both RA/DEC axis, is possible to have accurate pointing and keep the mount orientation also after a shutdown.
DUAL DEC
Thanks to the Dual Dec option, it is possible to use the second telescope as a counterweight itself, allowing a significant reduction of the use of the counterweights.
The possibilities to move the DEC arm towards the RA axis (with the same mechanism and concept of the M-zero, M-uno, and M-due mounts), facilitate the balancing procedure allowing to use as less as counterweight possible or even without any counterweight at all.
Slew Speed: up to 10° / sec
