Bring it to Your Favorite Viewing Spot
These Optical Tube Assemblies have a distinct advantage of being designed for use with different mounts. As long as the standard adaptors are present, you should be able to attach the OTA on it. The quick release mechanism enables you to assemble the tube quickly. It also allows you to make minor adjustments to the tube like a stroll in the park.
