For sale, a complete Celestron CGE mount. This was part of the first generation of GoTo mount for Celestron, this is the classic, massive, huge capacity CGE. Built in the USA at a time when Celestron and Losmandy were collaborating, this mount has a LOT of Losmandy genetics in it. The mount itself is 100% machined aluminum, with a deep black anodized surface throughout. WAY different build quality than the modern cast telescopes. ALSO! This mount came with very nice, anodized aluminum hardware upgrades for the 6 bolts that hold everything to the electronics pier, so it’s a no-tool upgrade. They might be ADM parts, but black, not orange. This mount was completely rebuilt and blueprinted by my company Axis Squared. It is in better than factory condition. A guiding test was performed after the rebuild, using a 25 pound payload. A 35 minute solid guiding run was performed with default PhD parameters, at Declination=0 degrees where guiding is the hardest. +/-5 arcsecond periodic error, and RMS 0.45 arcsecond guiding over 35 minutes. WOW. The ONLY issue we found after the rebuild is an annoying large Dec backlash, which we determined came from wear WITHIN the declination motor gearhousing. There is nothing that can be done about that. PhD had no problem with it, and using the internal backlash compensation in the hand controller completely fixed it. Not only is this a spectacular mount, but the accessories! Oh my! What’s included: Entire rebuilt CGE mount Tripod, tripod spreader, hand control saddle 24 pound counterweight V4 AND V3 hand controllers. The V3 was the factory controller, firmware V3.01 which is not up-gradable. the V4 hand controller is firmware GEM 4.20 Power supply, RS232 to USB cable for computer control (cable is custom made in-house) USB flash drive which will include a digital copy of the owner’s manual, all photos from the rebuild process, the PhD guide log, and some software that will help you (PhDLogViewer, ASCOM drivers, CPWI computer control software etc) FACTORY PACKAGING. Yes, the actual factory FOAM and BOX for this mount. You never see factory stuff for something this old! Several upgraded mounting knobs for no-tool assembly, all factory items also included. Can be picked up in the Houston TX area, or I will drive up to 4 hours away from Houston to meet you, for an extra $50 per hour fee. I will ship this, buyers cost is $175. Please contact me with any questions or concerns.
