This bracket # EAF-Redcat51-Plus allows you to mount a ZWO Electronic Automatic Focuser (EAF) onto seelct William Optics Redcat 51 telescopes.
Compatible with ZWO EAFN and EAF-Pro models only. Not for use with the discontinued EAF-STD and EAF-5V models.
The drive system is belt driven and results in zero additional backlash. See the autofocus image. You will notice that the V-curve is very symmetrical and the "V" is nice and sharp. This means the backlash is very low and any backlash is likely from the EAF itself.
The side opposite the EAF has a standard Synta shoe/saddle for mounting additional accessories such as an ASIAir or Pegasus Powerbox etc.
Redcat 51 notes:
- The bracket can be mounted with or without the top handle and different length mounting screws are provided. The design also allows the bracket to remain on the scope even when the dew shield is reversed, covering the rubber grip for transport.
- There have been 4 versions of the Redcat 51. The original (Gen I) had two threaded mounting holes on the side of the scope ring. The later two versions (Gen Ix and II) have 4 threaded holes on the top of the scope ring. This bracket will work with Gen Ix and II only. This bracket will not work with Gen I or the latest Redcat51 Gen III (WIFD) version.
BuckeyeStargazer's items are made of PETG plastic and can handle temperatures of up to 80°C (175°F).
