The C6 R-GT refractor combines big 150mm (5.9″) achromatic optics of 1200mm focal length (f/8.0) with the CG-5 computerized equatorial mount for a completely automated GoTo observing system. Equipped with high-speed DC servo motors and a NexStar hand controller with 40,000-object database, this scope will take you wherever you tell it to and will get there quickly and accurately. The equatorial mount has precision worm gears on both axes for smooth motion. It has a port for autoguider use in astrophotography, and the hand controller accepts an RS-232 cable for use of astronomy software to control the telescope. The heavy-duty tripod boasts beefy 2″ stainless steel legs for excellent stability. The scope comes with a 2″ rack-and-pinion focuser that accepts both 2″ and 1.25″ accessories. Also included are a 20mm (60x) eyepiece, 1.25″ star diagonal, 9×50 finder scope, and TheSky Level I astronomy software. Two-year limited warrranty.

   The heavy duty mount makes viewing a joy. Any vibration dampens almost immediately. Couple this with a wide angle eyepiece, and it’s like looking out of a window.
