SkywatcherAZ-GTiX - alt-azimuth GoTo Mount with Tripod and two Saddle Plates
With its weight of only 5.2 kg including tripod, the Sky-Watcher AZ-GTiX mount is easy to take anywhere.

The exciting new lightweight and highly portable Sky-Watcher AZ-GTiX Dual Saddle Alt-Azimuth Mount, with its built-in Wi-Fi module, has been designed to be used with up to two telescopes and is controlled wirelessly with your smartphone or tablet, using the free SynScan App for iOS or Android.

The AZ-GTiX creates its very own Wi-Fi network, so the mount can be used anywhere, without any reliance on other Wi-Fi networks. After entering your coordinates into the app and following a simple alignment procedure, you are ready to explore the universe using the app´s intuitive touchscreen menu. The AZ-GTiX and SynScan App provide full computerised GO-TO control, allowing your telescope to be automatically slewed to any one of the objects in the app´s extensive database of 10,000+ celestial objects.

Incorporates Sky-Watcher´s "Freedom-Find" patented Dual-Encoder Technology, which allows the telescope to be moved manually in either axis without the mount losing its positional information. This gives the user enormous freedom, convenience and flexibility during observational sessions.

The mount is quiet in operation, has a payload capacity of up to 6 kg (using one saddle) or 10 kg (using both saddles) and accepts telescopes with standard 45 mm dovetail bars. Supplied with stainless steel tripod, L-bracket with additional saddle plate and a 61 mm extension pillar.

Important note about power supply:
To avoid loss of warranty, please use only the power supplies and mobile supplies recommended by us. Especially simple car batteries or sealed lead-acid batteries can lead to an under-supply, which can then damage the sensitive electronics of the mount. Operating a Skywatcher GoTo mount with a non-proprietary power supply not recommended by us is at your own risk. Thank you for your understanding.
