Description

The Vixen R.A. Motor Module & STAR BOOK ONE Set (ES25804‑SO) upgrades compatible equatorial mounts to full motorized tracking and GoTo functionality. It includes a high-performance right-ascension motor module and the STAR BOOK ONE hand controller, allowing smooth automatic tracking of celestial objects across the night sky. This set transforms a manual mount into a versatile system ideal for visual astronomy and long-exposure astrophotography.

With its micro-pulse motor driving a 140-tooth worm wheel, the motor module delivers quiet, low-vibration motion. The STAR BOOK ONE controller provides multiple tracking modes (sidereal, lunar, solar, and more), backlash compensation, PEC (Periodic Error Correction), and autoguider support, giving precise control and flexibility. It’s the essential upgrade for observers seeking reliable automatic tracking, accurate positioning, and convenient motorized control.
