Brand: Pegasus Astro / SKU: PEG-NYX-101
Pegasus Astro introduces a high-performing, high payload mount that can easily carry imaging equipment up to 20Kg without needing a counterweight or shaft.
Strain wave drives on the RA and DEC axes ensure backlash-free operation with high torque at high payloads. The fully CNC-machined aluminum alloy 6061 body, black and blue anodizing, and use of select branded parts (stepper motors, strain wave gear) inside the mount, ensure that NYX-101 will perform flawlessly for many years. The mount includes an electronic brake on the RA axis to prevent backsliding when the power is off as well as safety limit stops during slew or tracking.
