Skywatcher Heritage 114P Virtuoso Auto Reflector Telescope Description

Skywatcher Heritage 114P Virtuoso Auto Reflector Telescope:

Skywatcher Heritage 114P Virtuoso Auto Reflector Telescope is a lightweight, comfortable, durable and stylish design telescope that is excellent for the observation of the Moon, planets and Deep-Sky objects. The Skywatcher Heritage-114p features the same 4.5" parabolic mirror-set as the hugely successful Skywatcher 1145p Newtonian telescope so is an excellent choice for back garden astronomy.

The Virtuoso mount provides a stable platform and will track night sky objects automatically once located. The telescope can be slewed automatically in both axes, at five different speeds, via the mount's electronic keypad. A great feature of the Virtuoso is the patented Freedom-Find dual-encoder technology which allows the telescope to be moved manually in either axis without losing alignment or positional information. This gives the user enormous convenience and flexibility during observing sessions.
