This complete telescope set from Vixen includes everything you need for portable and high-performance stargazing: a premium 80 mm ED refractor, a collapsible AP mount with RA motor and control, and the versatile APP-TL130 tripod. The refractor features high-performance SD glass that delivers exceptional sharpness and contrast, making it ideal for observing the moon, planets, and deep-sky objects. Designed for convenience and portability, the AP mount is stylish and compact with no protruding parts and allows smooth manual movement without clamps. Quick polar alignment is made easy with slip clutches, and the mount can be upgraded with an optional DC motor or an innovative polar finder scope that uses a three-star alignment method. The included STAR BOOK ONE controller provides precise tracking in RA and DEC axes with various tracking speeds (sidereal, lunar, solar) and features such as PEC, backlash compensation, and a built-in red LED light. The lightweight APP-TL130 tripod adjusts from 60 to 130 cm and combines portability with stability, offering both rubber and metal feet for indoor and outdoor use. The entire set weighs just 14.6 kg and comes with a dedicated travel bag for the optical tube, making it an excellent choice for astronomers on the go.
