Absolutely everything included. Well packed in labelled bags and clear delivery updates. Mount functions perfectly, once built from my 3D printed parts.
Why choose OG star tracker
Compared to other trackers, OG star tracker utilizes belts, which are
commonly used in expensive mounts. They exhibit significantly smaller
periodic error than the worm gears employed by other star trackers,
resulting in improved tracking performance. Belts also eliminate
backlash and spikes in guiding.
