Up for sale is my Takahashi EM-200 USD-3 Equatorial Mount. Tracks very well and is extremely smooth. Very excellent medium weight telescope mount for up to a 40lb payload. I carried my Takahashi TOA-130 with ease (see picture attached - scope not included in sale).

This is actually a go-to mount because this mount has the encoders and it does has positional feedback and slews work when hooked to TheSkyX software on my computer. Most USD-3 mounts lack the encoders so they don't work for go-to. I mostly used it for manual push to and it worked flawlessly for that. Just be aware the USD-3 mounts aren't quite as supported as the Temma 2 mounts, software wise. But its definitely an added bonus for the mount.

Sale price is $1,100 shipped for the EM-200 mount head, William Optics dual "D" and Vixen type saddle, (2) 11lb counterweights, hand controller, serial cord, and power adapter. For an additional $350 I can add the Takahashi LL (long leg) tripod (missing tray).
