New mount replacing heq5 pro


Recommended Posts

I currently have heq5 pro belt modded and I might need to buy a stronger mount and I'm looking at eq6r pro.

Is that the best mount for around 1500 usd? Ive seen that there is an az eq6r and it's alittle more pricier than eq6r pro, but what's the difference?

Is eq6r pro the best option for my budget?

I have the NEQ6 Pro, it's a beast and rock steady with my 8SE on, I only use it for visual but I've read that it's good for imaging too.  What were you thinking about mounting, and what's your primary intended purpose (imaging / visual)?

If wind or vibration are causing you problems then perhaps a tripod upgrade would help - the tripod with 2" thick steel legs that comes with the NEQ6 Pro is available separately but you'll need an adaptor to use it with the HEQ5 Pro.
