Sky-Watcher SynScan Hand Controller: Navigating with Buttons and an Object Database
This standalone SynScan V5 hand controller makes it easy to find stars, planets, and deep-sky objects. The internal database contains over 42,000 objects. The two-line display and large buttons are comfortable to use in the dark, even with gloves on.


Use it to upgrade an older Sky-Watcher GoTo mount, as a spare, or as a physical controller alongside an app-controlled mount such as the EQ6-i or Star Adventurer GTi. Please note: the connection cable is not included; it varies by mount type and is sold separately, or you can choose the version that comes with an EQ or Alt-Az cable.
