Skywatcher EQ-5 mounts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With the RA drive motor for Skywatcher EQ-5 mounts, you track stars and planets automatically. You don't have to constantly adjust your telescope. This keeps your objects in focus and lets you enjoy your observations longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"Skywatcher<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Clear operation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The manual control makes it easy to correct your motor. Choose between 2\u00d7 or 8\u00d7 speed, depending on how fast you want to track. This gives you control without being complicated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"Skywatcher<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Long service life<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The motor runs on 4 D batteries. That means many nights of observing without interruption. Everything comes in a convenient set with motor, hand control and battery bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compact and complete<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The set is light, practical and ready to use. No additional accessories are needed. You plug in the batteries and you can start observing right away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
