Skywatcher EQ-2 mounts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With the RA drive motor for your Skywatcher EQ-2, you don't have to constantly adjust the telescope. The motor compensates for the earth's rotation, so your objects stay in focus longer. This makes observing relaxed and comfortable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Full control in your hands<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The included hand control gives you direct control over what you see. You can reposition objects and adjust the speed: 1\u00d7, 2\u00d7 or 4\u00d7. This way you track stars, planets and nebulae exactly the way you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Ready for many nights<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The motor runs on batteries that are included. You are ready to use immediately, without additional cables or power supply. Everything comes in a complete set with motor, hand control and batteries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

This drive makes your EQ-2 finer to use without being complicated. Light, practical and quickly ready for observation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
