iOptron AZ Mount Pro with LiteRoc Tripod

Introducing the AZ Mount Pro featuring level and go intuitive GOTO setup

We call it level and go , the term used to describe iOptron new AZ Mount Pro s simple setup routine. Using its built-in precision level indicator, the operator simply levels the mount and turns on the power; this capable computerized alt-azimuth telescope mount takes it from there. Utilizing the onboard 32 channel GPS receiver and built-in position and angular detection sensors; the AZ mount Pro calculates its global position as well as the telescope orientation. Automatically the mount slews the instrument to an easily identifiable bright object in the night sky. The user needs only confirm a bright object is in the center of the view, to activate tracking and GOTO functionality.

The new LiteRoc tripod resulted in a lighter tripod with stability similar to the old 2” one. It also has improved leg cuffs and sockets for further rigidity and redesigned leg lock levers securing the extension s position.
