[Price Update] SkyWatcher EQ5 Mount with Dual-axis motor, 21cm dovetail and weights

Hi,

I bought this off of a very kind forum member last year but never got around to using it as much as I wanted, as life (and the damn clouds) got in the way.

Mount works well for visual but could probably do with a bit of a tune-up for non-widefield astrophotography.

The motors connect to the mount via two screws and then you use the controller to point. There is no go-to, just tracking.

Feel free to ask me any questions\request additional pics. You are welcome to inspect in person before committing to purchase.

I live in Sydney, Lindfield 2070. Pickup would be easiest, happy to drive and meet you half-way!

EDIT: Price-drop: Now looking for ~$250 and still open to offers!
