Description
The practical setting Advanced Polaris combined with an inexpensive Newtonian: a very good and expandable set for beginners or as a travel telescope for the more experienced.
The optics Vixen N 130/650:
A small but valuable tool for those taking their first steps in the starry sky. Discover the fascination of star clusters, galaxies and nebulae. There are too many objects to list them all here. With this aperture you can already make numerous observations and try astrophotography.
The advantages at a glance:
- compact and mobile
- ideal instrument for beginners and with various possibilities
There equatorial mount Advanced Polaris And ideal for beginners , but also for experienced spotters who wish to use a light travel frame .
The Advanced Polaris not only does it have a very elegant design, but it is also capable of delivering excellent performance, as the illustration to the right shows. The fine adjustment of the axes is carried out by a 58.4 mm diameter aluminum alloy gear with 144 teeth and 9 mm diameter brass worm shafts, each of which is supported by two ball bearings: here we are dealing with a very high quality fine mechanics.
The particularity of the Advanced Polaris and the Adjustable Friction : Without first having to loosen the clamps, you can move the telescope in the direction it needs to be pointed. The exact centering in the eyepiece is done via the knobs. The slipper clutch also works if yours Advanced Polaris it is equipped with motors (AP-SM). This allows you to navigate the sky quickly and intuitively.
You can use a polar finderscope or the camera mount's compass to point the mount north Vixen Polaria . The Advanced Polaris has connection options for both possibilities. Using the compass you have the advantage of not having to bend under the mount and of being able to align yourself without looking at the North Star. The polar finder and compass can be found under "Recommended accessories". In general: thanks to wide range of accessories , the mount can be expanded according to your needs.
The Starbook One is a versatile and easy to use controller designed to allow movement of the RA and Dec axes at different speeds. Tracking options include the all-important sidereal tracking and speeds for time-lapse photography, lunar and solar observing. In addition, the command offers many useful functions, such as backlash compensation, autoguiding port, PEC and an integrated red LED light.
The Starbook One command is designed, among others, for frames Advanced Polaris And SX2 by Vixen and is an integral part of the Advanced Polaris RA engine module. Note : if you want to motorise the mount Advanced Polaris in declination, the declination engine module is also required. The frame SX2 , on the other hand, already has all engines installed.
The motorization of the right ascension axis is sufficient for tracking the mount during visual observations or photography, as it compensates for the movement of the celestial sphere.
- Dimensions of the Starbook One: 13.7 x 6.5 x 2.1 cm
- Weight: 110g
- CPU: 32-bit CISC processor
Overview of the most important features:
- The Starbook One's four arrow keys directly control the motors.
- The two-line LCD display has an adjustable red background for night vision, so you won't be dazzled and lose your eyes' dark adaptation.
- The menu language is English
- Different tracking speeds are available, especially the direction of rotation can be changed depending on the hemisphere.
- Four different speeds are available for approaching celestial objects.
- Backlash compensation causes the controller to respond faster when reversing the direction of motion. This is very convenient when trying to center a celestial object in the high magnification eyepiece.
- The Starbook One can be used for autoguiding.
- PEC Control: Chasing compensates for errors that inevitably occur with any gear. This periodic error correction is important for long exposure photography.
The APP-TL130 tripod it was designed for the Advanced Polaris frame, but is also suitable for Vixen's Porta II, GP and wishbone frames.
The APP-TL130 tripod provides portability and stability for astronomical observations. When retracted, it measures just sixty centimeters, making it easy to transport. The tripod can be extended to a maximum height of 130cm. The tripod leg tips are equipped with a retractable rubber cover that protects the floor from scratches.
