For sale is a Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer GTi portable GoTo equatorial mount package 

Up for sale is a Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer GTi complete package including the matching pier extension and tripod. This is a turnkey portable GoTo equatorial setup in excellent condition and is priced aggressively at $699 for a quick sale.

This is my favorite GoTo mount in this class—delivering serious capability in a compact form factor. It’s ideal for portable astrophotography, travel rigs, or lightweight backyard setups without the size and weight of a full GEM.

Technical Highlights

  • 11 lb payload capacity
  • Dual-axis worm gear drives (RA & Dec) for accurate tracking and GoTo operation
  • Illuminated polar scope for precise alignment
  • Sidereal, Solar, and Lunar tracking rates
  • ASCOM compatible (PHD2, N.I.N.A., SGP, etc.)
  • Built-in Wi-Fi for full wireless control via PC or smartphone

Power Options

  • External 12V DC input
  • Or internal AA battery operation for field use

Included

  • Star Adventurer GTi mount head
  • Matching pier extension
  • Tripod
  • Counterweight shaft
  • 5 lb counterweight
  • Apertura Mount carry case
  • Apertura Tripod carry case

Why this is a great deal

This is essentially a ready-to-go portable imaging system—just add your scope or camera and you’re set. The inclusion of the pier + tripod alone adds significant value, and at $699, this package is well below typical combined pricing.

Clean, fully functional, and ready for immediate use.

Price: $699 (priced to sell)
Location: Charlotte, NC

Serious inquiries only—this is priced to move. Message me for photos or additional details; I can also provide PHD2 logs and close-up photos of the rig upon request.
