      5.0 Steady / AltAz Mount

      Pros:

      Steady, sturdy, well made, very functional

      Cons:

      No longer made(?) - hard to find

      Comments:

      I needed a simple, steady, portable mount for a new AT-80 refractor. I didn't want motorized, nor go-to.

      Did a fair amount of searching about and talking with people. The Vixen Icarus D was THE one. Steady wooden legs, quick to set-up, easy and intuitive to use. Smooth cable controls. Smooth operation across the sky.

      Just the thing for a grab-n-go outfit. For what I wanted it does an excellent job.
