Avalon Instruments M-Zero Single Arm Mount - Version with Tripod

The M-Zero single-arm mount by Avalon Instruments has been designed to revolutionize the world of portable astronomy with both the style and function that Avalon Instruments is known for. Made entirely from anodized aluminum with stainless steel hardware, the low weight and high quality of this mount make it the ideal companion for travelling observers and astro-photographers.

The great versatility and compact size, combined with Avalon´s unmistakable style, allows M-Zero to get you to a level where competition stops. M-Zero is four mounts in one: standard equatorial, equatorial but with no meridian flip, altazimuth for astronomical use & a time-lapse platform for panoramic pictures, all with only 10 kg of total weight (including the T-Pod 90) and 8 kg loading capacity, that is in a medium-sized trolley for safe transportation while traveling.

The combination of the StarGo GoTo system with several exclusive functions, the innovative Fast-Reverse technology (belt drive system) and the top-quality construction allows high level performances and auto-guided long-exposure astrophotography without time limits ? even with telescopes with focal length up to 2 m (8" SCT & 8" RC).

Thanks to the Dual-DEC system, it is possible to install a second telescope in the opposite side of the declination axis. Considering this capability it is possible to use a great range of optics starting from a small (4-5 kg / 8.8-11 lb) refractor up to a double setup with a total weight of 12-13 kg / 26.4-28.6 lb, obtaining performances so good to get it over the need of a bigger mount.

The Avalon StarGo GoTo-System has been totally designed and manufactured by Avalon to meet all needs, from the beginner to the professional photographer.

In standard equatorial mode the M-Zero does a meridian flip and relatively long tubes can be used as well.

In single arm equatorial mode the meridian flip should not be necessary and is turned off.

The mount can also quickly be set in altazimuth mode for observation with large telescopes and binoculars or to acquire automatic time-lapse sequences.

More exclusive functions will be available with StarGo firmware updates, that can be easily updated by PC. The M-Zero continues Avalon´s tradition of cutting edge design and top quality performance in portable observing and astro-imaging systems.
