Product Details
Please Note: You will need a stepper controller to drive this motor. The controller is not included and is available separately.
Focus your telescope quickly and accurately using Pegasus Astro's powerful Motor Focus Kit v2. This high resolution geared box has a 0.06 degree step size can can easily lift more than 6 Kg (per cm). Its high torque is suitable for lifting heavy imaging equipment. Moreover, the motor’s gearbox has low backlash which can easily be tuned out using backlash compensation in imaging software.
Pulley and belt design allows the motor to stay away from your filter wheel (and not collide with it) when you use a focal reducer. Its sophisticated bracket design can fit all Celestron SCTs as detailed below.
