Wanderer Astro WandererRotator Mini M54
The WandererAstro WandererRotator Mini is a lightweight and ultra low-profile M54 motorized rotator. It is capable of high speed and precision, at up to 4.5 degrees/second with better than 0.1 degree accuracy*. At only 10mm thick, the Mini rotator is ideal for setups where backfocus is limited.
The Mini rotator is capable of holding a payload of up to 5Kg with a centre of gravity 10cm away from the rotator. WandererAstro's patented magnetic structure design guarantees zero flexure at any altitude. For users of alt-azimuth mounts and Dobsonians, field de-rotation is supported.
The Mini rotator is entirely powered and controlled from a single USB 2.0 type B port that can supply at least 5V at 1A. The Mini rotator is ASCOM compatible and can be controlled by modern astrophotography software such as N.I.N.A.
*Accuracy can reach a maximum of 0.1 degrees after two attempts and after backlash compensation has been correctly set.
Note: If you want to connect the ZWO EFW 2" filter wheels to the Wanderer Rotator Mini, you will require an extra 1mm M54 spacer for clearance (even when using the ZWO M54 male to male adapter). Without this, there will not be enough clearance between the rotator body and filter wheel.
