Wanderer Astro Vixen Dovetail Bracket Kit For WandererBox
The Wanderer Astro Vixen Dovetail Bracket Kit provides a robust and direct mounting solution for your WandererBox, allowing you to attach it securely to any standard Vixen-style dovetail plate. Constructed from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, this bracket also functions as a mini Losmandy plate, offering expanded compatibility within the Wanderer Astro ecosystem.
Secure Vixen Mounting for Your WandererBox
This bracket is engineered to integrate your WandererBox seamlessly into your imaging setup. It attaches directly to the threaded holes on the WandererBox using the included screws. Once attached, you can mount the entire assembly anywhere along your telescope's Vixen dovetail, giving you complete control over balance and cable routing.
A Dual-Purpose Design for System Expansion
Beyond its primary function, the bracket is also machined to serve as a mini Losmandy dovetail plate. This clever design allows it to be mounted to other Wanderer Astro accessories, such as the Wanderer Losmandy Kit (available in Long and Short versions). This creates a modular system for organizing your gear.

What is the primary purpose of the Wanderer Astro Vixen Dovetail Bracket Kit?
Its main purpose is to securely attach a WandererBox power and data hub directly to a telescope's Vixen-style dovetail plate. This keeps the unit attached to the optical tube, simplifying cable management and improving stability.
What material is the Wanderer Astro bracket made from?
The bracket is made from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy.
How does the "mini Losmandy" feature on the Wanderer Astro bracket work?
The bracket's profile is also compatible with the Losmandy standard, allowing it to be attached to other accessories like the Wanderer Losmandy Kit. This makes it a versatile part of a larger, modular mounting system for your imaging rig. Please note the Wanderer Losmandy Kit is sold separately.
Are mounting screws included with the Wanderer Astro Vixen Bracket Kit?
Yes, the kit includes the standard screws required to attach the bracket directly to the threaded holes on your WandererBox unit.
Can I use this Wanderer Astro bracket to mount my telescope to a Losmandy saddle?
The mini Losmandy profile is only for attaching the bracket to the Wanderer Losmandy Kit (Long)/(Short). The bracket is sold for mounting the WandererBox and is not meant for mounting a telescope in a Losmandy saddle.
Will this bracket fit any Vixen dovetail plate, for example on my Celestron AVX mount?
The bracket attaches the WandererBox at any position on a Vixen-style dovetail plate, such as the plate on your telescope. Wanderer does not list it for use in a mount's Vixen saddle.
