Sky-Watcher Explorer 300PDS EQ6i GOTO Wi-Fi Equatorial Telescope

The new Sky-Watcher EXPLORER-300PDS Newtonian Reflector incorporates the same superb mirror-set as the Explorer-300P but with two significant advantages. A Dual-Speed 10:1 ratio focuser is now included for excellent focusing precision. Also the tube length has been slightly shortened to optimise performance for prime-focus photography.

Even better performance for astro-photography and visual use can be achieved when used in combination with Sky-Watcher’s Newtonian coma corrector (Prod.Code 20233)

Quiet in operation, the EQ6i PRO mount has a maximum payload capacity of 25kg and is fully controllable with a smart device via it's Synscan Wi-Fi adaptor using the free Synscan Pro App for iOS, Android or PC.

The EQ6i PRO also features a built-in illuminated polar scope for precision alignment, interfaces for USB, autoguider, optional SynScan hand controller and a SNAP shutter control port for your DSLR (programmable via Sky-Watcher’s free SynScan Pro app for iOS and Android).

Supplied complete with a very sturdy stainless steel tripod with 2" diameter legs and two 5.1kg counterweights.
