This mount is making way for other stuff. It's a G11 which I have modified with:

2 x McLennan gearboxes;
1 x Ovision worm on RA;
New clutches;
New pair of Oldham couplers available but not installed;
Additional bearings on both RA and Dec axes (making it a total of 3 bearings per axis).

(The fitting of the McLennan gearboxes induces a change in the direction of travel in both axes but this is adjusted in Gemini by identifying the mount as an MI 250 rather than a G11.)

Comes with Gemini 2 which I bought 6 months ago with standard Losmandy motors. I haven't bothered to upgrade the firmware - it works fine so why fix it if it ain't broken. I also haven't bothered to upgrade to the Maxxon motors for the same reason.

Also includes the standard Losmandy tripod PLUS a Losmandy MA for attaching to a pier.

I'm still fiddling with adjusting the worms but haven't quite got it right yet. I find it fiddly but others may have younger fingers that work better than mine.

Not looking to break any price records here - say $2500 should do it.
