RainbowAstro RST-300 Weightless Mount
The exciting new RST-300 uses a new and highly innovational type of gear. Due to the strong force of the Strain Wave Gear and the Motor, a counterweight is not needed.
This is the bigger brother of the popular and highly thought of RST-135 mount taking all the learnings of the smaller mount and improving upon the tried and trusted design with additions of a built-in brake which activates when the mount is switched off and holds the payload in position.
The mount weighs only 8.5kg but is capable of accepting a telescope with weight up to 30kg (maximum 50kg). Rainbow call this a "Weightless Mount"
The RST-300 is still a portable mount with excellent astrophotography potential that is ideally suited for using in the field and also in observatory setups due to it's huge payload.
The Rainbow Astro RST-300 mount utilises robotics technology that has been widely used in precision industrial robotics applications, strain wave gears provide zero backlash and a high degree of pointing and tracking accuracy.
This unique mount has the ability to function as either an EQ or AZ mount and can carry up to 30kg without the use of a counterweight shaft or weights. Weighing just 8.5kg and compact, the RST-300 is very portable and is a perfect option for travel astrophotography with larger payloads.
Smart features like built in Wi-Fi, a homing sensor and GPS allow for remote control and guiding of the mount. Built from solid block CNC construction, the Rainbow Astro RST-300 is solid with smooth operation for reliable performance.
