HAE29C-EC AZ/EQ dual SWG

Description

Introducing the new members of iOptron strain wave gear
mount family – AZ/EQ dual mount HAE29C and HAE29C
EC!
These light weight, high payload little titans will deliver an astronomy
experience like never before. Imagine a mount head weighing in at 8 lbs with a
payload capability 29.7lbs, without needing a cumbersome counterweight or
shaft. Applying iOptron’s multi-decade experience creating precision mounts,
the HAE29 brings this vision to reality.

Utilizing state of the art strain wave gear technology for the RA and DEC
movement, the HAE29s deliver unparalleled weight to payload efficiency. Its
black anodized all metal CNC machined body is not only appealing to the eye,
it’s a rugged platform that will perform at the highest level for many years to
come. Unique features include an electronic friction brake that allows the mount to
stop safely.

An HAE29 mount can be controlled by a computer, either via ASCOM/Commander for
a Windows PC or a third party INDI driver for a MacOS software; a Smartphone/Tablet
via iOptron Commander Lite or an App like Sky Safari; or a Raspberry Pi device
via INDI driver, “C” models (internal
main board versions) with built-in Wi-Fi allow for external control without
need for a handset. Those who prefer using a handset, the optional 8411 Go2Nova® controller is available. Both
versions of the HAE29C (std. or EC) have on saddle USB and 12V ports for easier
cable management. A quality form fit case is included.

The HAE29EC features
a high precision RA axis encoder that delivers incredible tracking accuracy,
enough that many will choose to image “sans” guiding.
