Telescope Skywatcher Heritage 114P Virtuoso Dobson with tracking

 
This Minidobson has many technical features, is sufficiently stable and quickly ready for use.
A beginner model for those who want to deal with GoTo Alignments without much additional equipment.

The opening-focal ratio is solid with f4,4 with a compact design and is well suited for first discoveries in the starry sky.
In addition to moon and planet observations (Saturn, Jupiter, Mars) are also some bright deep sky objects (the Andromeda galaxy, the Orion nebula) within reach of the telescope.Telescope Skywatcher Heritage 114P Virtuoso Dobson with tracking

The keys of the handbox (on which the telescope is mounted) can be used to view the sky objects at five different speeds on both axes. The Freedom-Find technology also allows hand-held operation, where the built-in encoder keeps the alignment of the electronics in the sky. By means of the corresponding illuminated spot detector, objects can be intuitively targeted and tracked (to compensate for the rotation of the earth).
It is possible to upgrade a SkyScan handbox, with which this mount can be expanded to a full GoTo system.



Further functionalities:

Camera Cruising
With a DSLR camera, you can go up to six preset positions. The mounting stops at each of these positions and triggers the camera via adapter cable (camera is not included).

Video Cruising / Time Lapse:
The mount can move your camera continuously between (max. Six) preset positions. Up to five speeds can be selected.

Panorama / Matrix Photography:
The mount guides your camera up to 360 ° for panoramic shooting.
