The mount is compatible with any optical tube assembly (OTA) with a Vixen-type dovetail saddle. The mount is powered by eight AA batteries and can run for up to 16 hours of continuous viewing, whether you're stargazing in the backyard or far off the grid.The dual-axis servomotor is controlled by the Go2Nova 8408 hand controller. This system has an internal database of 59,000+ celestial objects, with 60 user-defined objects to program yourself. The hand controller has updatable firmware through the built-in serial port.
