Both axis motors are built into a small single unit which is universally compatible with all telescopes using a dove-tail connection. In addition, there are no dead spots so you can point your telescope to ANYWHERE above the horizon, whereas, other mounts block the telescope tube at certain points of rotation. This mount also comes standard with AC connection. An optional DC adaptor is available so you can plug your telescope motor into your car if youre camping or at any remote location. ------------------ - The GoToNova Controller is much easier to use than other similar products.

Using the easy-to-use hand controller and its large LCD screen, you can easily set up your telescope and select where you want to go.

An excellent gift
Got for my kid age of 12 as a birthday gift. Thought it would be no more than a high-end "toy"; however, it was quite a surprise that this is a true equipment of all functionalities and fairly good goto and tracking. Worth the money and it became my toy now.
