Vixen VMC110L 110mm Telescope with Sky Pod 25006 incorporates a compact computer controlled Alt-Az system that automatically slews the telescope from one object to another. The 22,000 plus object data base provides an endless variety of sky objects to view and is upgradeable. This new and portable GoTo travel mount uses the modified Vixen Starbook S hand controller that offers the same practical user concept of the Sphinx controller. A display shows a map of the sky so that you always know where you are and the controller is integrated into the telescope mount. You can take it off for remote control, but you can always put it back for save storage and transport. This means that for transport you can avoid all the separate small parts that are otherwise easily lost.Because the Skypod by Vixen is based on Vixens flexible mounting system, a wide variety of Vixen telescopes will easily and quickly attach to this mount. The Sky-pod provides good portability combined with ease of use and versatility. You can store the mount and the telescope separately and for airline traveling you can take the Vixen VMC110L telescope along as carry-on luggage while the mount goes with the rest of your luggage.
