Hello Friend,

You might have had the experience of using an equatorial mount for astro-imaging and being frustrated trying to get the best results with that mount.

You would not be alone.  Many an amateur astronomer has experienced the frustration of not being able to get their computerized mount to do what they want it to do.

This can be especially problematic if you are doing any kind of astro-imaging.

It seems year after year,  I see the same problem crop up with amateur astronomers.  

What is the biggest issue causing the most problems?

That's easy to answer.  It's loading gear onto your mount that either exceeds it's capacity, or  comes very close to the payload limit.
When that happens, the mount electronics are going to be under strain, and not be able to do their job properly.

There goes your autoguiding;  your hours  of setup and work, right down the drain.

The results are not pretty to look at either.

So what's the solution?  Earlier this week I mentioned the new Celestron CGX mount that has just been released this past week,
and that is an excellent solution for a mid-sized mount.

However, what if you need a heavier duty mount, that will accept an even bigger payload?

The answer is right here:

Till October 15th, you can also save well over $600 on the purchase of this mount.

Trade-ins are welcome.  Now is the time to upgrade and skip the frustrations and problems of a mount that just can't do the job.
