Cassini 1100mm x 102mm Catadioptric Telescope on Fully Motorized German Equatorial Mount

The Cassini C-1100102MD is mounted on Cassini's fully motorized German Equatorial Mount. Take it outside at night, point it north, set the deluxe latitude adjuster to your latitude, turn on the motorized mount, and point the telescope at any object in the sky. Congratulations, your Cassini C-1100102MD is now tracking that object, and will continue to do so all night long! The mount is electronically driven in both axis; right ascension and declination. At rest the mount will automatically track to the west at 1x sidereal speed. The included hand box controller controls the scope in all 4 directions and features 4 speeds: 2x, 8x, 64x, and Slew (3° per second). The mount can be run on battery power (8 AA batteries) or with the included AC adapter and features a latitude adjuster for proper polar alignment. The Mount is attached to a sturdy, fully adjustable, pre-assembled metal tripod with retractable rubber feet. The tripod also features an accessory tray with slots to place 4 1¼″ eyepieces or lenses and adjustable counter balance weights ensure easy fluid movement of the telescope at all times. The telescope features heavy-duty primary and secondary mirror cells and the telescope tube assembly is finished out with a 1¼″ format focus tube. The Cassini C-1100102MD optical tube assembly features an 1100mm focal length and the Primary mirror is 102mm's in diameter. The finderscope is Cassini's Mars' Eye electronic Finderscope which helps by getting the observer behind the telescope without losing the surrounding field of view when targeting objects. Included are a 1¼″ 3 element, fully color corrected, modified Rank Kasspheric 25mm eyepiece, a 1¼″ 4 element fully color corrected 10mm Plössl eyepiece and a 3x 2-element Barlow lens.
