Any Suggestions on How to Mount an ASIAIR?

[Andyb90]

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to figure out how to mount an ASIAIR Plus on this rig. Does anyone have any suggestions?

There doesn’t seem to be a finder bracket available for the Feathertouch focuser.

 

Thanks,

Andy

I've settled on using a second long Vixen bar which extends out behind the focuser - works a treat with my RedCat and on my Samyang.

I also attach a mini-Vixen clamp to the lower rail as a fail-safe to stop it falling out of the mount saddle.

Thanks for the suggestion. I ordered some 30mm spacers to raise my scope up a bit more. Will then see if I can get the ASIAIR on the Losmandy plate like you have done on the vixen bar.

Are the two bolts visible on the focuser above the script for mounting a finder bracket?
