Description
The iOptron HAE69C Dual AZ/EQ mount is a compact and lightweight yet highly capable mount designed for both azimuthal (Alt-Az) and equatorial (EQ) operation. Weighing only 9 kg, this mount supports an impressive payload capacity of up to 36 kg with counterweights, or 31 kg without counterweights, making it ideal for astrophotographers and visual observers seeking portability without compromising performance. Utilizing advanced strain wave gear technology for RA and DEC movement, the HAE69C delivers precise tracking and exceptional weight-to-payload efficiency.
The mount features a rugged black anodized CNC-machined body for durability and long-term reliability. Unique capabilities such as an electronic friction brake ensure safe operation during power interruptions, while power-down memory allows the mount to resume tracking or GoTo slews without requiring realignment. The internal mainboard eliminates the need for a handset, with USB ports on both the base and saddle for direct control and firmware upgrades. Built-in Wi-Fi further enhances connectivity, enabling remote operation via tablets, smartphones, or computers.
