ZWO AM5 Harmonic Drive Mount + Carbon Fiber Tripod – ($2600 final price drop)

Selling my ZWO AM5 mount and matching ZWO carbon fibre tripod. This setup is one of the best lightweight, portable solutions for astrophotography and visual observing — perfect for grab-and-go nights or serious deep sky imaging sessions.

The ZWO AM5 uses harmonic drive technology, offering high precision tracking without counterweights (up to 13 kg/28 lbs capacity) and full GoTo functionality via ASIAIR or hand controller.

The included ZWO carbon fibre tripod is sturdy, ultra-light, and rock solid — a perfect match for the AM5's portability.

This setup is in excellent condition, used only a handful of times, always stored indoors in a dust-free environment. Selling only because I’m moving to a heavier-duty setup for permanent installation.

Price: $2600 (no offers)
Location: Sydney
Willing to ship (buyer pays shipping) or local pickup preferred.

Feel free to reach out with any questions or to request photos!

Rene

Hi Andy,

Will do. I'm in the office today (22/05) so will get some photos to you tomorrow or over the weekend.

I'll see if I can include a video of the mount slewing.

Hi Doug,

For deliveries outside of Sydney I'd ask that the buyer arrange their own delivery.

Further on Harmonuc Mount

Hi again Rene.

No idea how shipping works with respect to organising transport of the AM5 gear from your end to over here in Coogee WA. Age isnt helping either! Ha!

Do you you have the original box? Do you know what the total weight would be? Is this something you can comfortably find out from your location and arrange? I am quite interested and would like to know the total cost all up with transportation included to see if viable. If all a bit too hard, i understand.

Also do you have photos? Cant seem to see any at my end.

Thanks Doug

You would have to check with a courier company. I suspect Aust Post wouldn't take these due to weight. The mount in it's carry case alone would be 7-8kg then there's the mount which is separate and would be another 2-4 kg.
