The OG Star Tracker V2 is a travel-friendly tracker built for people who want real sky time—not a complicated setup ritual. It’s light enough to pack, accurate enough for long exposures without immediately needing an autoguider, and modular enough to grow with your ambitions (laser alignment today, declination axis upgrade tomorrow). Add app control, built-in camera triggering with dithering support, and time-lapse panning, and you’ve got a tracker that’s equal parts practical and fun.
Lightweight & portable design built for travel rigs and quick setups
High tracking accuracy with 10″–15″ periodic error, enabling longer exposures without an autoguider (especially at modest focal lengths)
Sturdy and stable payload handling
Supports 4kg imaging gear (with up to 5kg total payload noted)
Easy polar alignment via laser
Aim the laser at Polaris for fast alignment—no polar scope required
Modular option to swap between laser and polar scope depending on preference
Modular & customizable ecosystem
Add a ball head
Upgrade with a manual declination axis
Manual GOTO ready for quick target positioning workflows
Advanced camera control
Built-in intervalometer port plus dithering support to help reduce pattern noise in stacked images
Time-lapse panning for cinematic night-sky motion sequences
Field-friendly details you’ll actually use
Integrated bubble level for faster leveling and alignment
Open-source design: parts are open source for transparency, tinkering, and long-term serviceability
Simple power requirements: run it from a common 5V power bank
