But, it can support up to a 26 lb payload an incredible 2.6 mount weight-to-payload ratio. The key to providing such an impressive ratio is the \"CEM design\" which focuses the mount and payload weight directly on the center of the tripod rendering “natural stability”. The center-balanced design mount puts the weight of the payload at the center of gravity allowing for greater mechanical mount stability. Other features include an adjustable counterweight bar to prevent obstruction with the tripod. And polar aligning is quick and accessible all the time, because the polar scope is not blocked by the declination shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition, iOptron has added features for convenience and functionality. A positive lock gear engagement system (easy to use even when wearing gloves), built-in Wi-Fi, enabling unparalleled connectivity, and recordable permanent periodic error correction (PPEC) to repeat optimal PEC training sessions. The CEM26, Model C26A3 Center-balanced Equatorial Mount from iOptron delivers precise pointing and accurate tracking. The CEM26, Model C26A3 sets a new standard for compact equatorial GoTo mounts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe iOptron CEM26, Model C26A3 Equatorial Mount is equipped with the latest advanced GOTONova GO-TO technology, which means it is now one of the most powerful and accurate GO-TO mounts available. Its database includes over 212,000+ objects! The Go2Nova Hand Controller is intuitive and very easy to use. Its large 4-line LCD screen simplifies the process of setting telescope parameters and locating objects, to make the astronomer's task even easier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis CEM26, Model C26A3 mount has an iPolar electronic Polar Scope installed for quick and easy polar alignment.
