The TMS-Astro EQ Platform 45°–50° equatorial platform (visual observations) is a precise solution for astronomy enthusiasts using Dobsonian telescopes with diameters up to 14–16". Thanks to automatic tracking on the RA axis, the platform allows you to focus on observing without the need for constant manual corrections to the object's position. The model is equipped with segments optimized for latitudes of 45°–50°, making it an ideal choice for users in southern Poland, the Czech Republic, Austria, and Slovakia, among others. The aluminum construction ensures durability and stiffness while being lightweight, and the intuitive controller automates the start and reset of tracking. The platform can be adapted to a different geographical location by replacing the segments.
