The star-field equatorial mount has potential hazards in practical applications due to its idle stroke:
1. Under light load, the displacement of the center of gravity can lead to inaccurate transmission, resulting in random moving and stopping.
2. It is difficult to find the target under telephoto lens, and the large idle stroke causes the difficulty to align with the target. When the hand is released, the position changes, and the longer the focal length, the greater the error.
3. Specific angles and side pressure on the center of gravity are required for precise use and cannot be sustained.
4. Delay photography has a high failure rate for long-term tracking, and the closer it is to the zenith position, the greater the center of gravity flip and the greater the idle stroke error.
5. It can not improve accuracy and operational experience through balance balancing like traditional equatorial meters.
Features:
- Material upgrade: The appearance is more textured, while also possessing heat resistance and high rigidity.
- Performance upgrade: Adopting a "0 idle stroke" design, the spindle is very stable, which can effectively avoid the problem of excessive idle stroke in equatorial mounts of the same type. Thanks to Line Pro's new patented transmission technology, this product can provide better tracking accuracy while also improving load capacity.
- The front of the equatorial mount continues the previous generation's reverse load anti loosening design, and the main output shaft adopts a 3/8 screw.
- The redesigned magnetic dual-mode laser polarization axis (patented structure) can be unfolded or closed. (It is recommended to use in closed mode.) When using larger gimbals, there may be a situation where the laser is blocked. In this case, the laser can be flipped out from the side, and the magnetic flipping structure can not only adapt to larger gimbals, but also effectively improve the heat dissipation of the laser.
- Type-C power supply, 5V/2A.
- Supports four speed adjustments: stellar speed, solar speed, lunar speed, and 1/2 stellar speed.
Specification:
- Maximum load capacity: 3kg
- Material: ABSGF10 fiberglass reinforced material
- Equivalent focal length: 750mm
- Design and structure: “0 idle stroke” design; usually refers to the optimization of structure or control logic in mechanical or engineering systems to eliminate the "dead distance" or "dead zone" phenomenon that may occur when moving parts (such as gears, pistons, valves, etc.) move in the opposite direction, thereby improving system response accuracy and efficiency.
