Vixen - GPD2 Equatorial Mount with tripodThe GPD2 equatorial mount is the stronger and heftier of the GP mounts. With its solid steel R. A. and Declination axes and brass
worm gears, this mount will hold up to years of heavy use. In order to assure accurate tracking for astro-photography the worm
gears are especially machined to a very high precision that minimizes periodic error. The GPD2 Mount is equipped with a polar axis
scope with a built in illuminator. The GPD2 holds almost 50% more weight than the GP2. Add the DD2 Motor Set for accurate
Tracking.
