Description
Specifications
iOptron's new ultra compact EQ/AZ GoTo mount -- introducing The SkyHunter!
Fifteen years after releasing the innovational CubeTM AZ/EQ GoTo mount, the SkyHunter takes the next step toward perfection. It is the lightest and most compact full function portable goto mount in iOptron's exceptional history. Weighing in at only 2.9 lbs (including internal rechargeable battery), the SkyHunter is capable of supporting an 11 lbs payload in both equatorial and alt-azimuth modes.
The SkyHunter mount features four tracking rates, 1X or sidereal, 1/2X for sky and landscape combined, solar and lunar. All 4 tracking rates work in both northern and southern hemispheres.
The SkyHunter mount can be controlled by an iOS or Android SmartPhone/table with
iOptron's
Mobile iOptron Commander,
an optional 8410 hand controller, or a computer via ASCOM, INDI or embedded drive. With the embedded drive siply point the SkyHunter to the location of sky you want to image and it will operate in RA tracking mode. Just like a SkyGuider Pro!
