iOptron HAE29C-EC Dual GoTo Alt-Az/Equatorial Mount with High-Precision RA Encoder

The HAE29C-EC GoTo Alt-Az/Equatorial Mount with High-Precision RA Encoder from iOptron weighs just eight pounds, yet has a payload capability of 29.7 pounds, without needing a cumbersome counterweight or shaft. The HAE29C-EC features a high-precision RA axis encoder that delivers incredible tracking accuracy, enough that many will choose to image without guiding. Utilizing strain wave drive technology for RA and DEC movement, the HAE29C-EC features a black-anodized, all-metal, CNC-machined body. Unique features including an electronic friction break and power-down memory allow the mount to safely stop and resume a GoTo slew or continue tracking even after an abrupt power loss (no need to realign and start from the beginning). The mount accepts both Vixen and Losmandy-D style saddles. Control the HAE29C-EC mount with the iOptron Commander Lite app or a computer.
