STARQUEST DX Deluxe equatorial mount: precision and comfort

The frame STARQUEST DX Deluxe is specially designed for stability and precision. Once correctly aligned with the celestial pole, it can easily follow the movement of objects in the sky thanks to its slow motion commands on the right ascension (RA) and declination (DEC) axes.

It includes :

  • a 360° gear system on both axes
  • clutches for precise control
  • graduated circles for easy scoring

Its load capacity of 5 kg provides excellent stability, enhanced by a adjustable stainless steel tripod robust. An optional motor for the RA axis is available for even more comfortable automatic tracking.

Practical, transportable design

STARQUEST DX1026R is designed for easy transport and installation. Its lightweight optical tube, combined with a compact frame (1.4 kg head), means it can be used both at home and outdoors.
