TS-Optics Dual Mount Losmandy and Vixen Style
A dual mount is the most stable way for attaching two telescopes to one
mount. The dual mount is made for large telescopes. At one side, it
holds instruments up to 50 kg and at the other one instruments up to 30
kg. The extra wide distance of 430 mm, always measured from middle to
middle, allows also attaching of telescope tubes with large diameter.
The dual mount is perfectly suited for astrophotography if a large main
instrument and a compact guide scope are combined. The smaller telescope
is held by the Vixen / EQ5 style saddle plate.
The advantages of the dual mount
Advantages over other attachments
Usually, tube rings provide only a small support area and, due to the
felt liner, they are not very stable. The guiding scope or telephoto
lens can move relatively to the main telescope. Additionally, lever is
more unfavourable. The mount is clearly higher burdened than with the
dual mount. The guiding scope is significantly closer to the centre of
gravity of the mount. Balancing the instruments is easier with the dual
mount, too.
Among others, the dual mount is suitable for the following mounts:
