Product Description

Celestron AstroMaster Motor Drive

Enhance Your Telescope with Automatic Star Tracking

The Celestron AstroMaster Motor Drive is an essential upgrade for AstroMaster and PowerSeeker equatorial telescopes, allowing you to automatically track celestial objects with precision. Designed for Celestron CG-2 and CG-3 equatorial mounts, this easy-to-install motor drive compensates for Earth's rotation, ensuring that stars, planets, and deep-sky objects stay in your telescope’s field of view for extended observations.

Key Features

  • Right Ascension (RA) Tracking – Automatically follows celestial objects as they move across the night sky.
  • Compatible with Northern & Southern Hemispheres – Easily switch tracking direction using the North/South (N/S) toggle switch.
  • Adjustable Tracking Speed – Fine-tune the motor speed using the Speed Rate Regulator knob, perfect for tracking the Moon, Sun, planets, and deep-sky objects at their unique motion rates.
  • Cord-Free Operation – Powered by a 9V battery, eliminating the need for external cables.
  • Compatible with CG-2 & CG-3 Equatorial Mounts – Works with Celestron AstroMaster and PowerSeeker equatorial telescopes.

Smooth and Accurate Tracking

When properly polar aligned, the RA motor drive ensures smooth, accurate tracking, requiring only minimal manual adjustments in declination (Dec) to keep objects centered in the eyepiece. This makes it ideal for:

  • Long observation sessions – Keep celestial objects in view without constant manual adjustments.
  • Beginner astrophotography – Reduce drift and improve imaging with stable object tracking.
  • Hands-free viewing – Let the motor handle tracking while you focus on observing.

Simple Setup and Operation

Installing and operating the Celestron AstroMaster Motor Drive is quick and straightforward:

  1. Attach to your equatorial mount – Easily mounts onto Celestron CG-2 or CG-3 equatorial setups.
  2. Power with a 9V battery – No need for external power sources or extra cables.
  3. Select hemisphere – Flip the N/S switch to match your location.
  4. Adjust speed as needed – Use the Speed Rate Regulator to fine-tune tracking speed based on the object type.

Elevate Your Stargazing Experience

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced astronomer, the Celestron AstroMaster Motor Drive enhances your telescope’s tracking capabilities, making it easier than ever to observe celestial objects for longer, steadier, and more detailed viewing sessions.
