GP Clamp for X-Guider / M-Zero mount [AV-9MGP001]
$58.20 USD1 in stock specialorderScheduled DeliveryAvalon Instruments: GP Dove Tail Clamp (compatible: Avalon X-Guider and Avalon M-Zero mount), with single clamp screw.
The M-zero mount several configurations (operating mode – telescope type) are summarized with accessories: Dual Dec Adapter, Gp Clamp and GP bar 23mm h.
- Two parallel telescopes: 106 mm f/5 refractor weighting about 9 kg and a 60 mm secondary refractor weighting about 3 kg.
In this setup a suitable length secondary tube is mounted on the optional tool. It can be used for autoguiding, for taking simultaneous picture with different FOVs or different filter, etc. In this case the second telescope constitutes an active counterweight allowing the mount to obtain performances that should require much higher loading capacity mounts. Counterweights used 2 kg total.- Two parallel tubes: 8” f/10 SC weighting about 7 kg and 70 mm secondary refractor weighting about 3 kg:
In this setup the secondary tube is mounted on the optional X-Guider allowing a precise alignment between the two optics.- with DSLR Camera
installed on the M-zero mount, allowing to perform wide and extrawide field expositions. It can be mounted standalone or in parallel with a telescope. In this case the telescope can be used as guidescope for longer expositions. With this setup a counterweight is not necessary

X-Guider Avalon [AV-9XGD001]
$295.00 USD1 in stock specialorderScheduled DeliveryAvalon Instruments: X-Guider Avalon: High Precision micrometric Head (Tangent Mount Assembly) for guide telescope. Off-Axis +/- 5° complete with upper GP clamp.
The X-Guider is a Tangent Mount Assembly of the telescope; is extremely compact and innovative for found the guide star in astrophotography, which comes from a long experience in the field of astronomical photography.
Its main characteristic is that while having a load capacity of more than 6 kg is very light, with a mechanical simple, robust, without slack and above all it has the ability to make adjustments with one hand through two convenient knobs, look much important when one must act in uncomfortable condition.
Once the final position is found possible to lock the elevation through two knobs and since the azimuth is ensured by the pressure of a spring very strong, the system is totally free from play and mechanical deflection, absolutely essential factor in a system of autoguider
Another important aspect is the low profile that allows you to maintain a low center of gravity resulting in less weight to balance.
The system is equipped with a dovetail standard GP for fixing the guide telescope and a second removable flange GP, through which it is possible a fast and efficient mounting in parallel on a standard bar GP is the side that superimposed on the main telescope.
