Fornax Lightrack II star tracker
Made in 2017. I’m the second owner and it’s been very lightly used. I’m now using a small eq mount for widefields and don’t need the portability of the Fornax so much.
High quality tracker with friction drive. Periodic error +/- 2 arc seconds. More robust and much more accurate than Skywatcher and Ioptron models which can run to 50 arc seconds PE or more.
With good polar alignment, easily manages 3 min exposures at 300mm, unguided.
