The highest class telescope in the Maksutov-Cassegrain optical system equipped with the StarBright XLT optical coating and the computerized CGX equatorial mount. The Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope with a diameter of 180mm (7") and a focal length of 2700mm. Despite its large diameter, it is still quite a compact telescope, and its usability is high. When equipped with the T-Adapter and T-Ring, the tube can be used as a powerful astrograph for photographing bright objects in the Solar System. The Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope is a device with a small light intensity and a very large focal length, which allows for detailed visual observations of the Moon and planets and photographing bright objects without the need to use Barlow lenses.
The Celestron CGX equatorial mount is the successor to the well-known and proven Celestron CGEM model. It is a modern German equatorial mount with a GoTo system with a load capacity of 25 kilograms, compatible with the StarSense system and WiFi modules. The mount was designed completely from scratch. We have a completely new drive at our disposal, free from backlash, without gears, completely based on belt transmissions. The motors used are characterized by a higher rotational speed, ensuring better operation under increased loads. The motor, via a toothed belt, directly drives the brass worm, which transfers the drive to the stainless steel gear wheel. The elements of the mount are connected by internal wiring, all ports are placed in a stationary way, there is no risk of tearing out the power cable due to the movement of the mount axis. At the same time, the mount is equipped with safety features to prevent the optical tube from hitting the tripod.
The mount is equipped with a home position sensor that allows the telescope to be parked and then taken off from the correct position. In cooperation with PlaneWave, new software has been developed that allows for precise control of the equatorial head's errors, ensuring very high precision in setting up objects, perfect for astrophotography applications.
Mechanically, a stronger tripod was used. The position of the equatorial head relative to the tripod can be adjusted to better balance the set. The mount can be used in the range of latitudes from 3 to 65 degrees. Both Vixen standard tubes and CGE (Losmandy) standard tubes can be attached to the head, a saddle supporting both standards was used.
The assembly stands out from its predecessors in terms of ergonomics. Comfortable handles were used to carry the head, large, comfortable screws fastening the dovetail in the saddle, and the method of setting the axis to the celestial pole was modernized.
A very practical change is the introduction of a USB port on the NexStar+ remote control. This allows you to connect the mount without the need for additional adapters, as was the case until now. The telescope can be operated using the software included in the set. Celestron CGX has two AUX ports for connecting additional devices and an Autoguider port. The mount is equipped with the well-known GoTo NexStar+ controller with a database of 40 thousand objects. • telescope optical system: Maksutov-Cassegrain
