Orion VersaGo Precision Altaz Mount
Here's an elegantly simple, easy-to-operate telescope mount that frees you up to just enjoy
the view rather than struggle with the equipment. It's sturdy and "grab-and-go" portable, with
silky smooth motion. For stargazing or daytime scoping, the VersaGo is a dream.
The VersaGo's slanted aluminum support arm has a dovetail saddle that allows easy coupling
of your telescope tube. It can hold up to a 6" reflector or Cassegrain tube and allows it to
point straight up to the zenith. And unlike some less expertly engineered mounts, the
VersaGo holds the telescope tube over the mount's center of gravity, not off to the side, for
superior stability. Teflon bearings glide your telescope effortlessly wherever you aim it. The
foam-grip panning shaft and oversized aluminum tensioning knobs give you extremely fine
positioning control. The motion is so smooth you can even track moving targets. And the
VersaGo sets up in a jiffy. Get one today!
Price - £239.00 + £10.00 shipping & insurance.
VersaGo 5" L-Arm with 1/4"-20 Mounting Post 5047
Couples Spotting Scopes Equipped with 1/4"-20 Plates to the VersaGo Altazimuth Mount
This 5" L-Arm provides a horizonal mounting platform to couple spotting scopes or small
refractors equipped with a standard 1/4"-20 plate to the VersaGo Altazimuth Mount. Thread
the L-Arm's captive 1/4"-20 bolt into the threaded socket of your scope with the large knob,
then secure it with the lever lock. A rubber grip pad holds the scope firmly on the L-Arm. The
right-angle dovetail bar fits into the saddle plate of the VersaGo mount. A metal retaining peg
on the underside of the dovetail bar prevents it from slipping out if the locking bolts are loose.
The L-Arm easily accommodates spotting scopes up to 127mm aperture.
