Sky-Watcher Fusion 300DXi Mount Head

Impressive high payload capacity and effortless setup, combining innovative engineering with a compact, portable design.

Featuring a unique movable Altitude arm integrated with an Azimuth base, the Fusion 300DXi offers a flexible mounting solution that is both quick to assemble and easy to transport. The adjustable ALT arm slides along the AZ base with a 170mm range of adjustment, allowing precise balancing of a wide range of optical tubes and providing compatibility with numerous telescope configurations.

Built-in Wi-Fi connectivity and seamless control through the SynScan App make operation straightforward from a smartphone, tablet or PC, eliminating the need for a traditional hand controller. For those who prefer conventional operation, a Synscan computerised hand controller remains available as an optional accessory.

For added convenience, dual-axis clutches work alongside Sky-Watcher’s proprietary Freedom-Find™ dual-encoder technology, allowing the telescope to be repositioned manually at any time without losing its alignment. This provides greater freedom and flexibility when navigating the night sky.

In its standard Alt-Azimuth configuration, the Fusion 300DXi mount head supports an impressive payload of up to 30kg, making it an excellent choice for visual observing and casual astrophotography. For use in Alt-Azimuth mode, the mount can be used with the optional EQ6 Pro 2″ Stainless Steel Tripod (code 20937) or the EQ6 Pillar Mount (code 20889). The mount head features an M12 connecting thread for installation onto a user’s own pillar.

For those looking to explore long-exposure deep-sky imaging, the mount can be upgraded to full Equatorial operation using the optional Fusion Equatorial Wedge (code 20337) expected in Spring 2027. This accessory also provides latitude adjustment from 0° to 70° and ±14° of azimuth fine adjustment, enabling accurate polar alignment for demanding astrophotography applications.

Combining high payload capacity, versatile control and exceptional adaptability, the Sky-Watcher Fusion 300DXi is a flexible mounting platform designed to grow with your astronomical ambitions.

Please note only the Fusion 300DXi mount head is supplied with this offering and does not include any tripod mounting or Synscan handset which are optional accessories that can be purchased separately.
