The tracking motor set for EQ-320 telescopes
You've only just located an object in your visual field before it once again wanders away. This is why you should mount your telescope on a motorised drive and save yourself from constant manual tracking. A good accessory for beginners who want to find their celestial bearings more quickly or want to dare to try astrophotography for the first time.
The advantages at a glance:
- Tracking motor for automatic RA axis tracking counteracts the Earth's rotation: the objects remain constant in your visual field
- Hand-held control unit with four star speeds to select between: 2x, 4x, 8x and 16x
- Ideal for visual observations and astrophotography
- 12V DC motor may be powered by battery pack or by optional power cable
Relaxed observing with automatic tracking
Once you have aligned your telescope with the first point of reference, you can keep the target stars and planets constantly in view, precisely in the middle of your visual field of view. With no manual tracking, you can concentrate fully on observing and take time to observe every detail - and also show friends and family.
The motor moves the telescope at the correct sidereal speed. You can choose between speeds of 2x, 4x, 8x and 16x so that you can make additional fine and coarse adjustments to the positioning using the hand-held control unit.
For every location on Earth
No matter where: Use your telescope for observations from any location you like. It even works in the southern hemisphere. You simply adjust your telescope's automatic direction of rotation using the N/S switch.
The first steps towards your own astrophoto
Of course, this EQ-320 accessory increases the comfort of your visual experience, but automatic tracking is also essential if you want to practice astrophotography. It makes it possible to take long exposures of objects without blurring. The Moon, individual lunar craters and planets can be wonderfully captured.

Since August 2023, the motor has been supplied with a small spacer and longer screws to attach the mounting bracket to the mount. This spacer improves the fitting accuracy of the motor coupling and the worm shaft. It is inserted between the holes in the bracket and the mount (in Instruction Manual part 1 in Fig. 2 and part 5 in Fig. 3). (Benjamin Mirwald)
