Harmonic Drive technology virtually eliminates mechanical backlash, resulting in exceptional precision when tracking celestial objects. Unlike traditional geared mounts, it requires no adjustment of mechanical backlash, reducing maintenance to a minimum.<\/p>\n
Thanks to its light weight and high load-bearing capacity without counterweight, the RST-135 is ideal for travelling astrophotographers looking for a quick, transportable set-up.<\/p>\n
Tracking accuracy<\/h3>\n
Rated at \u00b1 2.5 arcsec, this mount produces perfectly round stars at any focal length! With or without guiding, you'll get exceptional performance!<\/p>\n
