Alt-Azimuth Mount– The Cube™

The SmartStar® N114 reflector telescope comes with our patented Alt- Azimuth Mount, a.k.a. The Cube™. This compact mount design is one of the most functional and flexible units on the market. Sky & Telescope magazine named it “Hot Product 2008”. Both axis motors are built into a small single unit with optical encoders that provide accurate GOTO and tracking. The mount is universally compatible with all telescopes using a dove-tail connector plate. With an optional DC adaptor you can plug your telescope mount into your car if you’re camping or at any other remote location.

Easy to understand controller

The GoToNova® hand controller is much easier to use than other similar products. The hand controller is more intuitive with menu categories better organized. It also has a larger LCD screen with more lines of content compared with the competition. Using the hand controller and its large LCD screen you can quickly set up your telescope and select where you want to go.

GoToNova® Computerized Control System

With a database of 10,000+ celestial objects including all of the more famous galaxies, nebulae, star clusters— not to mention the planets—you’ll be able to enjoy star gazing with the simple push of a button.
