The binoculars are supported by a professional-grade Orion VersaGo altazimuth mount, constructed from black-finished machined and cast metal.

The entire system is mounted on a height-adjustable silver-finished aluminium tripod with black composite fittings and a central triangular accessory tray.

The prism housing of the binoculars is marked with the name HELIOS. The mount head is marked with the model name VERSAGO and the functional designation ALTAZIMUTH MOUNT. The base of the mount bears the ORION brand name accompanied by the company’s stylized tree logo.
