Optec 2" Pyxis rotator

Now the RC8 is going, I have an Optec Pyxis 2" rotator for sale.

I bought this about a year ago off Astromart so its pre-loved.

Details can be found here:

http://www.optecinc.com/astronomy/ca...yxis/pyxis.htm

It comes with all necessary cables and a range of adapters and spacers. It will mate with the RC8 quite neatly. It also connects easily with the TCF-S focuser from Optec - see my separate ad.

Photos showing the rotator has been added. The first show the rotator and attachments - including 2 inch nosepiece and various adaptors. The second shows the rotator with the 2 inch nosepiece, an extender and adapter for the QSI583 (2.156" faceplate). The third shows the rotator mated with the Optec TCF-S focuser and QSI 583wsg. The focuser is also for sale - see my separate post. The camera will probably go on sale soon.

New, this sells for US$795. My price is A$500 - buyer pays shipping or pick up in Sydney.

Feel free to PM with any questions.

Pete
