Why the Altitude-azimuth mount?The question you might have right now could be: "why has Track The Stars decided to make an altitude-azimuth design instead of an Equatorial design?" There are several reasons why we favour the altitude-azimuth design:- Fast setup - more time for sky watching.
- Easy to transport - more frequent sky watching and from dark sites.
- No need to realign the ocular after each goto - more user satisfaction.
- From a mechanical point of view, it has better force distribution - more stability.
- Takes up less space and has nice design - your wife will like it.
