  • Improved motors provide more torque, better slewing and tracking under heavy loads
  • Heavy duty belt-drive system minimizes backlash while providing smooth motor operation at full capacity
  • Longer 270 mm dovetail saddle to support larger optical tubes
  • Remote operation friendly features such as home and limit optical sensors, easier polar alignment adjustments, and better cable management overall
  • All-new ergonomic adjustment knobs with reduced friction for smooth and easy positioning under full loads
  • Integrated handles on the equatorial head for easy transport and portability
  • Dual-fit Vixen/CG-5 and Losmandy/CGE saddle accepts virtually all dovetail bar equipped optical tube assemblies.
  • Redesigned tripod has a widened stance for added stability. The minimum tripod height has also been lowered per user feedback
  • Adjustable EQ head position to optimize center of gravity over the tripod and fully utilize the increased 3º-65º latitude range
