This mid-level telescope mount incorporates many of the high-end features found on Celestron's most sophisticated German equatorial mounts, but at a more accessible price point. Designed to optimize performance for smaller telescopes, the Advanced VX mount utilizes Celestron's cutting-edge technologies. These include the All-Star Polar Alignment, Celestron PWI telescope control software, SkyAlign, and permanently programmable periodic error correction (PPEC). Whether you're an experienced astronomer or a beginner, this portable mount offers the conveniences of a larger observatory mount, making it a perfect companion for dark sky site observations. The Advanced VX is the smallest of Celestron's German equatorial mounts, featuring computerized GoTo capability that automatically tracks celestial objects as they traverse the night sky. It includes ports for a hand control, an autoguider, and 2 AUX ports for optional accessories. The NexStar+ hand control provides instant access to all the mount's functions, making it user-friendly for astronomers at any level. The mount comes with a robust tripod, featuring 2" diameter steel legs for an extra-wide stance, ensuring improved stability. It has a payload capacity of 30 lb, providing a sturdy platform for any of the Advanced VX optical tubes, even when used with optional accessories like StarSense AutoAlign, Focus Motor, a finderscope, and a camera. As of early 2019, Advanced VX mounts now come with a new dual saddle plate that accommodates both CG-5 and CGE-style dovetail, making it compatible with virtually any optical tube within its weight limit. The Celestron PWI Telescope Control Software, co-developed with PlaneWave Instruments, is an all-in-one solution offering many of the same features used on observatory-class telescopes. It provides a graphical planetarium interface with PointXP advanced mount modelling for the most accurate pointing and tracking possible. The package also includes a free download of Celestron's Starry Night Special Edition Software, offering detailed information about celestial objects and helping you plan your next observing or imaging session. The Celestron Polar Axis Finder aids in polar aligning your mount. It features a reticle etched with recognizable star patterns to help you align your telescope. Whether you're in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere, this finder will guide you to align your telescope accurately, enhancing your stargazing experience.FeaturesThe most compact and portable of Celestron's German equatorial mounts offers the same rigidity as our larger mounts with minimal flexure and an improved industrial designHolds a maximum instrument capacity of 30 lbsEvery feature an astroimager wants: PEC, an autoguider port, the ability to image across the meridian, and moreNEW dual saddle plate is compatible with the narrow dovetail and larger CGE dovetailLatitude range allows the mount to perform between 7 and 77 latitudeSpecificationsMount TypeComputerized EquatorialInstrument load capacity30 lbs (13.6 kg)Height Adjustment Range(includes mount and tripod) 1118mm - 1626mm (44" - 64")Tripod Legs50.8mm (2") Stainless SteelLatitude Adjustment Range7 to 77 degreeMount Head Weight17 lbs (7.71 kg)Accessory TrayYesTripod Weight18 lbs (8.16 kg)Weight of Counterweights1 x 12 lbsSlew SpeedsNine slew speeds, 4 deg/sec maximumTracking RatesSidereal, Solar and LunarTracking ModesEQ North and EQ SouthGPSOptional SkySync GPS AccessoryDovetail CompatibilityVixen/CG-5 saddle plateNumber of Auxiliary ports3 Aux ports (1 hand control and 2 AUX ports for optional accessories)Autoguide portYesUSB PortYes, input on Hand ControlPower Requirements12V DC 3.5A (tip positive)Motor DriveLow cog DC Servo motors with encoders, both axesAlignment Procedures2-Star Align, Quick Align, 1-Star Align, Last Alignment, Solar System AlignPeriodic Error CorrectionYesComputerized Hand ControlNexStar+ hand control with LCD display, 19 fiber-optic backlit LED buttonsNexStar+ Database40,000+ objects, 100 user defined programmable objects.
