Announcement: Skywatcher Fusion 300 DXi Mount

The Sky-Watcher Fusion 300DXi is an innovative mount designed for astronomers requiring high payload capacity and maximum operational flexibility. Its unique single-arm fork design allows operation in both Alt-Azimuth and Equatorial configurations, making it ideal for visual observing and long-exposure astrophotography.

Unlike traditional German Equatorial Mounts, the Fusion 300DXi can track objects across the meridian without requiring a meridian flip, allowing uninterrupted imaging sessions and greater automation.
Ideal for large optical tubes

The Fusion 300DXi is particularly suitable for: 

Newtonian astrographs 
Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes 
Ritchey-Chrétien telescopes 
Large catadioptric systems 
Advanced imaging telescopes

Dual configuration 

Alt-Azimuth mode: payload up to 30 kg without counterweights 
Equatorial mode: payload up to 25 kg without counterweights

The dedicated equatorial wedge transforms the mount into a full equatorial imaging platform.  (optional)
