These lightweight, compact, medium payload titans will deliver an astronomy experience like never before. Imagine a mount head weighing in at 6.2kg with a payload capability 20kg, without needing a cumbersome counterweight or shaft. Applying iOptron’s multi-decade experience creating precision mounts, the HEM44 EC Mount Head brings this vision to reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUtilizing state-of-the-art strain wave drive technology for the RA movement in tandem with backlash-free DEC worm\/belt drive design, the HEM44 EC Mount Heade delivers unparalleled weight to payload efficiency.

Unique features such as an electronic friction break and power down memory allow the mount safely stop and resume a GoTo slew or continue tracking even after an abrupt power loss (No need to realign

These light weight, compact, medium payload titans will deliver an astronomy experience like never before. Imagine a mount head weighing in at 6.2kg with a payload capability 20kg, without needing a cumbersome counterweight or shaft.

Unique features such as an electronic friction break and power down memory allow the mount safely stop and resume a GoTo slew or continue tracking even after an abrupt power loss (No need to realign

Imagine a mount head weighing in at 6.2kg with a payload capability 20kg, without needing a cumbersome counterweight or shaft. Applying iOptron’s multi-decade experience creating precision mounts, the HEM44A Mount Head iPolar brings this vision to reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUtilizing state of the art strain wave drive technology for the RA movement in tandem with backlash-free DEC worm\/belt drive design, the HEM44A Mount Head iPolar deliver unparalleled weight to payload efficiency. Its black anodized all metal CNC machined body is not only appealing to the eye, it’s a rugged platform that will perform at the highest level for many years to come. Unique features such as an electronic friction break and power down memory allow the mount safely stop and resume a GoTo slew or continue tracking even after an abrupt power loss (No need to realign
