Description

While designing the DeltaRho 500, our team wanted to create more flexibility in our system by proposing a new focuser and rotator that is faster, stronger, and thinner than the IRF 90. And our Series-5XL stackable focuser and rotator accomplishes just that and is perfect for users of our DeltaRho 500 and RC 700 telescopes that require field de-rotation.

The Series-5XL is compatible with the DeltaRho 500 and the RC 700. Adapter kits are available to allow the Series-5 to secure to the CDK 14 through CDK 700 telescopes.
