The Vixen SXD2 Equatorial Mount with Wireless Unit from Explore Scientific introduces remote control from your phone or tablet running the StarBook app. Dual stepper motors provide smooth and virtually vibration-free tracking that runs at up to 250 pps. The mount's full-circle brass wheel gear allows tracking over extremely long periods with little error and the steel RA and DEC axes can support heavier OTAs, cameras, etc. The RA and DEC motors are situated inside the mount to reduce interference and act as counterbalance so you don't need counterweights with smaller scopes. When not in use, the counterweight shaft retracts into the mount and out of the way. The mount is powered by an included 12 VDC power adapter that simply plugs into any car/vehicle accessory socket.
