About this product

NEW ZWO AM5n Harmonic Drive Equatorial Mount. 

NOTE: The ZWO AM5n Mount is also available in a bundle with a ZWO carbon-fibre tripod. Please see this page to buy the mount and tripod bundle. 

The ZWO AM5n is an updated version of the highly successful AM5 Harmonic Drive mount with the following enhancements:

• Higher 15 kg (33 lbs) payload capacity without a counterweight or 20 kg (44 lbs) with a counterweight.
• Periodic error reduced from ±20 to ±10 arcseconds.
• Bluetooth control via the APP for improved connectivity.
• Cable management design prevents cable entanglement.
• The saddle features an integrated DC output and USB Type-C port.
• The new design ensures the internal cable is not twisted and worn when the DEC axis rotates.
• The new base design eliminates azimuth locking knobs.
• APP High Load Mode counters the impact of low temperatures on performance, enhancing the mounting's load capacity.

Harmonic Drive mounts with Strain Wave gears offer several advantages over conventional German Equatorial Mounts. 

Strain Wave gears enable the AM5n to combine precise tracking with high payload capacity in a compact, highly portable mount that fits most carry-on airline bags! The AM5n's strain wave motors have zero backlash and less than ±10 arcseconds periodic error. When autoguiding, the accuracy is an impressive 0.5 to 0.8 arcseconds.
