Bresser Skylux: The mount

This is the better thing of this instrument. We could really say that the Bresser Skylux could be acquired also for his mount.
It's an german equatorial mount that could be considered equivalent (if not advanced) to many EQ2 commercialized from famous manufacturers. The cost of this mount if acquired singularly in store exceeds the same price of the complete Skylux. Sincerely I have not found defects. The equatorial head can also be motorized in right ascension. The movements are fluid and precise, without perceptible problems. The two things I don't like are the objects taker and the support of optical tube that seems not so solid as the rest of scope. I have measured the time of stabilization and it is around on 3-4 second with the minimal extension of legs and approximately 5-6 sec with average extension. Very good for an economic telescope mount. I remember that last year I tried the small konus refractor 60mm AZ mounted and it was very unstable. A breath was enough to move it.
