Straight out of Aprilia in Italy's Latina province comes Avalon Instruments, the astronomy division of one of the country's finest engineering companies. With over 30 years of experience in precision CNC design and manufacturing, Avalon Instruments have developed outstanding mounts for astronomical observation and imaging.
The star of the show is their new M-UNO zero-backlash, belt-driven, single-arm platform, which has no need for counterweights or a meridian flip, and can support a payload of up to 20 kg!
Made entirely from anodized aluminum with stainless steel hardware, the low weight and high stability of these tripods make them the ideal companion for travelling observers and Astro-photographers.
While having a load capacity of more than 6 kg is very light, robust, without slack and above all it has the ability to make adjustments with one hand through two convenient knobs.
