Product description
The AZ800 is a high end RC telescope with nasmyth focus in a fork mount. It is driven by direct drive torque
motors combined with high resolution optical absolute encoders for position feedback.
The tertiary mirror can be rotated by a torque motor to any position, so that the telescope provides up to 4
usable foci.
The focuser is also equipped with an absolute encoder. It shifts the secondary mirror.
