AstroTrac 360 Lightweight Tracking Mount

Meet the world’s most portable high performance telescope mount.

Our goal with AstroTrac 360 was to do the impossible: engineer a full‑size experience into the smallest, lightest telescope mount possible. And not only is it compact - it’s more accurate than ever. The new AstroTrac 360’s advanced friction drives and optical encoders deliver even better unguided tracking performance than the AstroTrac TT320X-AG.

German Equatorial Mount
AstroTrac 360 punches above its weight at just 5 kg (11 lb) in GEM configuration. With an imaging instrument capacity of 10 kg (22 lb) it easily handles a 100 mm (4 inch) refractor or 200 mm (8 inch) carbon Ritchey Chretien with camera.

Single Arm Mount
If you’re shooting with a 400 mm camera lens or small telescope, leave the counterweights at home. A unique sliding mechanism enables balance without counterweights.

Camera Tracker
Split the AstroTrac 360 German Equatorial or Single Arm mount and you have two of the best tracking camera mounts on the planet. Double your results or double your fun with friends and family. Climbing Everest? - just take the one.

Advanced Friction Drive

Tracking Performance
Built in premium Renishaw optical encoders guarantee high precision tracking all night long. Long unguided exposures at 400 mm focal length or more are now a reality with typical unguided tracking error of less than 5 arcseconds over 15 minutes. Enjoy big mount performance at longer focal lengths with the ST-4 autoguide port.

Pointing
Raw encoder accuracy better than 60 arcseconds over 360 degrees ensures your camera will be centred on your target.

Secure Polar Scope
The entirely re-engineered all metal polar scope snaps firmly into the AstroTrac 360.

Reticle Illumination
Dimmable built in LEDs illuminate the new AstroTrac 360 polar scope reticle, so there’s no need for cables or additional batteries.

Collimation
Swing the right ascension drive through 180 degrees and use the polar scope adjusters to ensure the polar scope is perfectly collimated for precise polar alignment.

Software compatibility
Works out of the box with popular 3rd party software such as SkySafari and TheSkyX. No dongles required.
