SkyWatcher Star Discovery WiFi Computerised Mount

A superb WiFi controlled computerised telescope mount supplied with a height adjustable stainless steel tripod with an accessory tray.

With motors on both axes the Star Discovery WiFi mount can automatically slew a telescope to any object from the SynScan App, including objects from Messier, IC, NGC and Caldwell catalogues, the planets, named stars, double stars, variable stars and even user-defined objects such as new comets. The exciting new Sky-Watcher Star Discovery WiFi mount is a Go-To mount featuring FreedomFind dual encoder technology. This allows your telescope, once aligned, to be moved manually or electronically in either axis without the mount losing its alignment or positional information. After moving to a new object, the mount will continue to track it accurately. This gives the user enormous freedom, convenience and flexibility during observational sessions.

The WiFi built in and SynScan App provides full computerised GO-TO control, allowing your telescope to be automatically slewed to any one of the objects in the App’s extensive database of 10,000+ celestial objects.
