iOptron AZ Mount Pro Head 33lbs capacity 13lbs weight 10in height

Mount head for telescopes up to 33lbs

The iOptron AZ Mount Pro head supports optical tubes weighing up to 33lbs. Its aluminium body provides a rigid platform for visual observation and imaging. The unit weighs 13lbs and stands 10in tall, making it manageable for transport to dark-sky sites. It is intended for astronomers who want a computerised alt-azimuth mount without a heavy tripod.

Sustained tracking with onboard GPS

The built-in 32-channel GPS receiver supplies position data continuously, so the mount maintains accurate pointing throughout a full night. Precision level indicators and angular sensors feed the alt-azimuth system, allowing it to correct drift during long sessions. The computerised GOTO logic slews to targets and tracks them without manual re-alignment. Vibration remains low even when the payload approaches the rated limit.

Dual 6in dovetail saddle for balance

A 6in dual dovetail saddle is the single feature that determines whether your telescope can be mounted securely. It accepts a range of dovetail bar widths, letting you centre the optical tube for optimal balance. If your scope uses a different mounting standard or requires a longer saddle, this head will not fit. No other specification overrides this mechanical interface.
