iOptron SkyHunter goto mount with ipolar
I purchased this item which arrived only yesterday from Astroshop.eu in Germany. (I already had a new ipolar)
I already have 3 large iOptron mounts but wanted this smaller unit for travel to replace my az-gti. However, it’s not quite what I want and not able to take my TV-85 plus bits and bobs (does but border-line on weight) Anyway, I’ve literally opened box, set up, had a play for couple of hours and decided to pass on before I use it properly.
Description of the set-up…..
The iOptron SkyHunter is an exceptionally portable, full-function GoTo mount designed for mobile astrophotography and stargazing. Weighing a mere 2.9 lbs (1.3 kg) including its internal rechargeable lithium battery (which lasts up to 10 hours), it handles payloads up to 7–11 lbs effortlessly in both equatorial (EQ) and alt-azimuth (AZ) configurations.This package includes the high-precision iPolar electronic polar scope, making alignment fast and exact via a connected computer or tablet rather than squinting through an optical finder. Dual-axis servomotors with optical encoders, built-in Wi-Fi for smartphone/planetarium app control (like SkySafari), and multiple tracking speeds (sidereal, 1/2x for landscape/star mixes, solar, and lunar) make it a versatile grab-and-go powerhouse for tracking the night sky anywhere in the world
