Photo description / processing
Another equatorial mount, currently without motors. It features wave gear reducers on both axes and mounts onto a fixed column. The payload capacity is up to 40 kg, and the complete head weighs 29 kg.
It looks unusual but is convenient due to its large clearance from the lift to the intersection point of the axes, eliminating the need for extra adjustments. Once equipped with a drive and tested, it may be sent to the Caucasus for use with an RASA 11 under high wind load conditions.
