Orion VersaGo II Altazimuth Telescope Mount (Pre-owned)

This telescope mount is in good condition. The mount slews smoothly, and the wear is only cosmetic. 

• Altazimuth Design: The mount allows smooth and intuitive manual movement in two axes—up/down (altitude) and left/right (azimuth)—making it simple to track celestial objects as they move across the sky. This design is excellent for terrestrial observation as well.

• Sturdy Tripod: The mount comes with an adjustable aluminum tripod that provides a stable platform for your telescope. The tripod’s legs can be adjusted to different heights, offering flexibility for different viewing positions, whether standing or sitting.

• Smooth Controls: Equipped with slow-motion control knobs for fine adjustments in both axes, allowing for precise and steady tracking of celestial objects without jerky movements.

• Wide Compatibility: The VersaGo II is compatible with a wide range of small-to-medium telescopes, including refractors, reflectors, and catadioptrics up to 15 pounds (6.8 kg). Its Vixen-style dovetail saddle allows easy attachment and detachment of your telescope.

• Portability: Despite being sturdy, the mount is lightweight and easy to transport, making it suitable for fieldwork, star parties, or backyard astronomy.

• No Power Required: Being a manual altazimuth mount, the VersaGo II doesn’t require any batteries or external power, ensuring simple setup and use, especially for those who want to avoid the complexity of motorized or computerized mounts.
