The Bresser EXOS-2 GoTo German Equatorial Mount is a full GOTO mount with tracking motors in both axes that follow celestial objects very precisely and can be accurately controlled using the 'Star Tracker' hand controller.

The Mount and Tripod:

The Bresser Nebula EXOS-2 is a stable mount with a high load capacity and precise tracking for both visual observations and astrophotography. Double radial groove ball bearings in both axes ensure precise, smooth motion, and the RA axis bearing has been optimized to reduce backlash. Additionally, the tripod is reinforced to suppress vibrations further. The Bresser EXOS-2 can be loaded with up to 13kg of optics for purely visual use or approx. 10kg for Astrophotography.

Nebula - the powerful and flexible Goto system:
With the Nebula Goto system you have the option several control methods. You can either operate the mount directly using its own digital Nebula control interface using your smartphone or tablet (iOS and Android supported). Alternatively, you can also use a planetarium software such as Sky Safari.Manual control remains an option as well using the included hand controller for minor corrections or simple control commands.

In addition to this, with the Bresser Nebula Goto Kit, you can connect your laptop or PC directly via WIFI or LAN cable (recommended for faster data transfer) to the Nebula control unit. This not only gives you full control over the mount but also allows you to connect various devices such as cameras, motor focus, filter wheels, etc. directly to the control unit via various USB ports. This eliminates the need to connect each device to your computer via cables. The pre-installed program KStars / EKOS lets you comfortably control all devices from your PC or laptop.

Electronic polar alignment or guiding can also be easily achieved with this Goto Kit, provided you have a camera connected. You are also not just limited to the software of the Nebula control unit. Thanks to the installed ASCOM Alpaca driver, you can use your own programs on your computer to control the mount - whether it's Stellarium or N.I.N.A. The two stepper motors with a belt drive ensure a smooth, direct drive of the two axes. It's only important to make sure you have a good balance on your mount setup.
