Hi,
I am looking for a suitable half pillar or an equivalent extension which which will raise the Celestron CG5 mount to prevent the counter weight from hitting the tripod legs. This is often a problem when the latitude setting is too low.
Does anyone know of such an extension? Is the Vixen GP half pillar suitable for the CG5 mount? There is also the problem of fixing the central rod with the accessory tray to the mount if an extension is added as it is too short. Would appreciate if somebody could advise me.
Thanks.
