Sky-Watcher 70/900 AZ-GO2 refractor telescope
The Skywatcher 70/900 AZ-Go2 Explorer Refractor Telescope is a great beginner telescope designed for those eager to explore the night sky with ease. Its 70mm achromatic refractor design, combined with a long 900mm focal length, is ideal for high-magnification views of celestial objects like the Moon and can also be used for viewing the planets. Refractor telescopes provide sharp, classic images without using mirrors, making your viewing experience more crisp and clear, and also suitable for long distance terrestrial viewing during the day.
The AZ-Go2 mount uses its motors to make the telescope follow the rotation of the sky. Its integrated computer controls (“GoTo”) helps by selecting a suitable celestial object and points the telescope towards it.
One of the AZ-Go2 mount’s special features is its integrated Wi-Fi. This enables the mount to be controlled remotely using the free SynScan app for iOS or Android. You need a smartphone or tablet with this app to control the mount this way. It is also possible to control the mount using optional hand-held controls, but the app provides more functions and can always be kept up-to-date.
The AZ-Go2 mount is a single-arm mount. This makes it lightweight and compact. Due to the mount's curvature, the telescope does not touch the mount when it is pointed sharply towards the zenith.
The telescope is attached to the mount using a clamp (mounting saddle). This is a Vixen-style clamp and enables various scopes to be attached, even from other manufacturers.
The height-adjustable stainless steel tripod with accessory tray holds the mount and the telescope steady with no shaking whatsoever.
The mount has a battery compartment but can also be powered using an external battery (12V/1A).
