Lucy L. ★★★★★ Oct 21, 2026

Took me a few minutes to get it attached to the mount, but once installed the balancing adjustment is noticeably smoother and more precise.

Stella Q. ★★★★★ Oct 20, 2026

Set the RA axis up for the first time last night and the counterweight made dialing in balance noticeably easier on my L-600. The threaded rod feels solid and it holds position well once you snug the lock.

Mounting this RA balance accessory was straightforward and the fine-tuning adjustment made dialing in the load much easier than I expected. It's a simple addition but really improves how the direct drive motor tracks without any extra strain.
