You can place one or two telescopes in the Vixen-style saddles, clamp them down, and everything is steady. The load capacity of approximately 15 kg can be distributed across both saddles, for example, a large refractor plus a compact second tube for guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Skywatcher-Skytee-2-Montering.jpg\" alt=\"Skywatcher Skytee 2 heavy azimuthal mount with two Vixen dovetail clamps and counterweight bar on white background.\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both axes have friction control and slow-motion fine-tuning: quickly swing to a new target, then precisely adjust. The counterweight holder with a \u00d820 mm rod balances heavier combinations. Without motors or electronics, the head is low-maintenance and quiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Included<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>SKYTEE-2 mount head with two Vixen-style saddles<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Slow-motion fine adjustment on both axes<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Counterweight holder (rod \u00d820 mm)<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Featured accessories<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Sky-Watcher 1.75 inch stainless steel tripod for EQ5 and HEQ5 is the matching base: the complete SKYTEE-2 set comes with this same tripod. The 2.3 kg counterweight kit helps balance a second tube.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For whom yes, for whom no<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those who already have an EQ5-class tripod or pier and are looking for a heavy-duty manual alt-azimuth mount.
