Ideal for beginners and more experienced users alike, it combines excellent optical quality with a motorized, WiFi-controlled Go-To mount. Easy to transport and quick to set up, it fits perfectly into the \u201cgrab-and-go\u201d philosophy.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to the <strong>AZ-Go2 Go-To Alt-Azimuth<\/strong> equipped with a <strong>integrated WiFi module<\/strong>, the telescope can be controlled directly from a smartphone or tablet via the free app <strong>SynScan<\/strong> (iOS and Android). The mount generates its own WiFi network, allowing completely autonomous use without any external connection. After a simple alignment procedure, you can explore the sky by selecting your targets from an intuitive touchscreen interface.<\/p>\n<p>The Go-To system provides access to a database of <strong>more than 10,000 celestial objects<\/strong>, including Messier, NGC, IC and Caldwell catalogs, as well as named stars, double stars and solar system objects. Advanced features such as <strong>\u201cTonight's Best Tour\u201d<\/strong>, object identification and direct pointing enhance the viewing experience. Two-axis motorized tracking ensures that objects are held precisely in the field, with a choice of movement speeds (up to <strong>800x<\/strong>) and sidereal, lunar and solar tracking modes.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of optics, the Skymax-102 is based on an innovative <strong>Maksutov-Cassegrain<\/strong>, a highly compact, high-resolution device. With a diameter of <strong>102 mm<\/strong> and a focal length of <strong>1300 mm<\/strong> (focus report <strong>f\/12.7<\/strong>), he excels at observing <strong>double stars<\/strong>, as well as details of the <strong>Moon<\/strong> and <strong>planets<\/strong>. Its long focal ratio produces high-contrast, razor-sharp images.<\/p>\n<p>The primary and secondary mirrors are treated <strong>Radiant\u2122 Aluminum Quartz (RAQ\u2122)<\/strong>, offering up to <strong>94% reflectivity<\/strong>. This coating guarantees bright, long-lasting images. The optics are also <strong>multi-treatment<\/strong> to optimize light transmission and contrast.<\/p>\n<p>The telescope is supplied with two eyepieces of <strong>10 mm and 20 mm<\/strong>, allowing magnifications of <strong>x130 and x65<\/strong>, with a maximum potential of <strong>x204<\/strong>. Le <strong>red dot viewfinder<\/strong>\u00a0facilitates the initial pointing of objects, particularly during the alignment phase.<\/p>\n<p>Visit <strong>90\u00b0 elbow return (1.25\u2033)<\/strong> provides a comfortable viewing position for celestial objects, while the\u2019<strong>universal smartphone adapter<\/strong> included (compatible with cameras from 54 to 90 mm wide) makes it easy to capture images of the Moon and planets.<\/p>\n<p>The AZ-Go2 mount is compatible with the <strong>ASCOM<\/strong> for computer control, as well as planetarium applications such as <strong>SkySafari Plus\/Pro<\/strong>. A SynScan racket is also available as an option for classic steering.<\/p>\n<p>The tripod in <strong>adjustable stainless steel<\/strong> ensures excellent stability in the field. It features a practical accessory tray for organizing your gear. The unit can be powered by <strong>8 AA batteries<\/strong> or via an external power supply <strong>12V<\/strong>, offering great flexibility of use.<\/p>\n<p>The Sky-Watcher Skymax-102 AZ-Go2 is a complete, compact, high-performance telescope, ideal for high-precision planetary observation. Thanks to its Go-To WiFi system and ease-of-use, it lets you explore the sky independently and with optimum comfort.<\/p>\n<h3>Technical specifications<\/h3>\n<table border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"8\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Features<\/th>\n<th>Detail<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Optical type<\/td>\n<td>Maksutov-Cassegrain<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Mirror diameter<\/td>\n<td>102 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Focal length<\/td>\n<td>1300 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Focus report<\/td>\n<td>f\/12.7<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Magnifications supplied<\/td>\n<td>x65 (20 mm) \/ x130 (10 mm)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Maximum useful magnification<\/td>\n<td>x204<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Optical treatment<\/td>\n<td>RAQ\u2122 (94% reflectivity) + multi-layer<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Supplied eyepieces<\/td>\n<td>10 mm &amp; 20 mm (1.25\u2033)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Researcher<\/td>\n<td>red dot viewfinder<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Angled return<\/td>\n<td>90\u00b0 1.25\u2033<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Frame<\/td>\n<td>AZ-Go2 Go-To Alt-Azimuth WiFi<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Control<\/td>\n<td>SynScan app (iOS\/Android) \/ optional paddle<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Database<\/td>\n<td>10,000+ objects (Messier, NGC, IC, Caldwell...)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tracking modes<\/td>\n<td>Sidereal, lunar, solar<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Travel speeds<\/td>\n<td>1x to 800x<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Motorization<\/td>\n<td>DC servo motors (double axis)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Connectivity<\/td>\n<td>Integrated WiFi, ASCOM, mobile apps<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Mounting<\/td>\n<td>Vixen dovetail (45 mm)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tripod<\/td>\n<td>Stainless steel with accessory tray<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Power supply<\/td>\n<td>8 AA or 12V external batteries<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Smartphone adapter<\/td>\n<td>54 to 90 mm (universal)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; T\u00e9lescope Sky-Watcher Skymax-102 AZ-Go2 : compact, pr\u00e9cis et enti\u00e8rement connect\u00e9 Le Sky-Watcher Skymax-102 AZ-Go2 est un t\u00e9lescope compact, l\u00e9ger et performant, con\u00e7u pour offrir une exp\u00e9rience d\u2019observation moderne et intuitive.
