In just 10 minutes, the mount is ready and ready for successful observations. The compact design, the ease of use and the quick setup, combined with the built-in GPS, offer the hobby astronomer a previously unknown flexibility in terms of the observation site.

Clean positioning and tracking! The MiniTower Pro is equipped with the new SmartStar GoTo technology. You have one of the most powerful GoTo mounts available, which we know. A large display provides the necessary overview and about 130,000 objects in the database provide a lifetime of astro fun and variety. A control via PC (USB interface) is also no problem. The mount typically positions to about 1 minute of arc exactly. Even at higher magnifications, the object will always be in the eyepiece field. The exact tracking then keeps you the object for hours exactly in the middle of the field of view.
