The HAE69C GoTo Alt-Az/Equatorial SWG Mount from iOptron weighs just 19 pounds, yet has a payload of 69 lb without needing a cumbersome counterweight or shaft. Utilizing strain wave drive technology for right ascension and declination movement, the HAE69C delivers impressive weight-to-payload efficiency, and its black anodized, all-metal CNC-machined body constitutes a rugged platform. An electronic friction brake 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 included Vixen/Losmandy dual saddle will hold your optical tube assembly securely.
