SkyPod Mounts



The Skypod is a unique portable alt-azimuth computer controlled "Go To" mount
that evolved from the very successful Vixen Sphinx mount. (Image shows Skypod
with optional tabletop stand) The Skypod incorporates a compact computer
controlled Alt-Az system that automatically slews the telescope from one
object to another. The 27,000 plus object data base provides an endless
variety of object to view and is upgradeable.

This new and portable GoTo travel mount uses the modified Starbook S hand
controller that offers the same practical user concept of the Sphinx
controller. A display will show you a map of the sky so that you always know
where you are.

The controller is integrated into the mount. You can take it off for remote
control, but you can always put it back for save storage and transport. This
means that for transport you can avoid all the separate small parts that are
otherwise easily lost.
