Celestron Advanced VX C6 SC telescope on Goto mount

The 6 "Schmidt-Cassegrain not only has the StarBright XLT coating for clear images, but also high-quality Schmidt-Cassegrain optics with a focal length of 1500 mm (f / 10). With a 15 cm aperture, it collects 40% more light than one 5 "telescope.

State-of-the-art technology for mobile use

Celestron Advanced VX mounts set a new standard for medium-sized telescopes up to approx. 15 kg. The mount was developed from scratch, always with astrophotography in mind. It offers many properties of the large Celestron mounts at a very attractive price - and the axle cross weighs only 7.7 kg!

Solid cast parts and heavy-duty mechanics

Based on the tried-and-tested Advanced GT mount, the Advanced VX not only offers large, handy adjusting screws and stronger motors that can cope even better with an unevenly distributed load, but also a wider base for tripod connection and an improved dovetail mount with two clamping screws. No turning around prematurely! The tracking is possible up to 20 ° beyond the meridian passage.

State-of-the-art software

The AVX mount is supplied with the cold-resistant, much more powerful NexStar + hand controller. So you have a modern computer control at your disposal - with over 40,000 objects and German menu navigation. Thanks to the built-in clock, commissioning is even faster than before. The software moves to the reference stars automatically, you just have to center them in the eyepiece. Even the sun can serve as a reference object.

Northing made easy

With the AVX, you no longer have to laboriously set the Polarstern using the polar finder: Align the mount roughly to the north, carry out a 2-star alignment - and then call up the All-Star-Polar-Alignment. The software now helps you to position the mount precisely, even if you cannot see the Polarstern. You look comfortably through the telescope and do not have to kneel under the (optionally still available) polar finder.

Versatile to expand

In addition to an RS232 connection, the AVX also has an autoguider input and two AUX connections. Here you can connect additional, separately available expansion modules - for example the SkyQ Link module for control via WLAN with iPhone / iPad / Windows PC or the StarSense module, with which the mount automatically approaches and perfectly centers its reference stars.

Experienced photographers will appreciate how easily this mount can be transported to a dark observation area. If you are new to astronomy or astrophotography, the Advanced VX will help you get started and can serve you well for many years to come.
