CG5 Mount

Hi,

I have a Celestron CG5 Mount for sale, i believe its equivalent to the EQ5 mount? I have recently upgraded to a HEQ5 pro so i have no use for it.

The mount is a few years old and has the aluminium tripod legs. It has no goto or motor drives. It works great, however it could do with a regrease to get the best out of it.

$200

Pickup in Brisbane only at this stage

Cheers
Matt

Yes it did have a dual axis motor drive and i believe a goto upgrade kit would be fine

Ok this needs to sell, give me a decent offer. I will trade for other accessories of interest (eyepieces, various filters (OIII) , RACI finder etc)

Hi Matt,
will trade for the mount. I'll do an inventory of the "surplus to requirements" drawer and get back to you with a PM.
