PegasusAstro Falcon Camera Field Rotator

The Falcon Rotator v2 is a large aperture (M68) camera field rotator that impresses with its lightweight, low-profile design. Despite its slim profile, it possesses the remarkable capability to manage and accurately position even heavy image trains.

Operating the Falcon Rotator v2 is a seamless experience, thanks to its compatibility with classic ASCOM, native ASCOM Alpaca drivers and the Unity Platform software. This user-friendly design simplifies the process of automatically and precisely orienting your camera field, making your astrophotography endeavors significantly more convenient and efficient.

M68 threads on both sides and low profile
Both sides of the rotator are M68 threaded, so it is possible to use large sensors without vignetting.

The thickness of the rotator is just 15.5 mm and the weight only 700 grams, but it can handle 6 kg payload.

Adapters for both sides
There are adapters for many commom threads available, as shown among the images on the top of this page.

Precise rotation
A powerful geared / low backlash stepper motor ensures that the rotator will lock to the designated degrees. High quality mechanical components inside the focuser prevent flexure in any point during a full circle rotation.

High rated load
Falcon Rotator v2 has been tested at 6Kg or 13 lbs of imaging setup. The mechanical design allows to custom tighten internal bearing that can easily handle high payloads with nearly zero flexure.

One Cable Operation
The rotator can be connected with a USB-C cable for both power and data, reducing complexity in your telescope setup. Additionally, it´s Wi-Fi enabled, allowing you to control your field rotation remotely from your mobile phone.

De-Rotation support for Alt/Az mounts
The rotator has the precision to fully support that. PegasusAstro is going to provide the required software for de-rotation calculations very soon. (under heavy testing under the stars)

ASCOM & INDI support
The rotator is fully ASCOM6 supported. INDI support will follow by the time of the launch.

Standalone software
Control the Falcon Rotator with the supplied standalone Windows software.
