Perfect working condition Skywatcher HEQ5 Pro Mount with Synscan GOTO controller, for sale for $1000
Includes standard Synscan controller, two counterweights, and cigarette lighter adapter.
The mount has only had a maximum of 6kg payload for astrophotography and has been used less than 20 times since purchase in December 2018.
Due to the weight, local pickup in Sydney is preferred, however if you live remotely I can ship at your cost. You will need to arrange a courier pickup as the box is too big for Australia Post.

Reason: Sold
The mount was purchased in December 2018 and has been used under 20 times, stored indoors when not in use. It is in excellent condition with no issues at all and comes with all original packaging. It has a built-in illuminated polar scope.
I am selling it to upgrade to a larger mount in the skywatcher range. It is in perfect working condition with excellent guiding results in PHD2.
