CAA - Is the Takahashi E-180 compatible?

4dmaze

I have connected my CAA to my Takahashi E-180 but it hits the focuser at mid-focus. Not sure how to get around it.

There is a curved indent in the CAA but it is not big enough to clear the focuser.

Is there a list of incompatible scopes? (or a solution?) Thanks. -Derryl

If it was flipped the other way it wouldn't have that issue. Also the filter wheel, which comes next in the train would miss it as the indented part is further out and beyond the CAA.

It's been 10 days so I assume I won't be getting a response. I don't believe anyone should purchase this product without a list of compatible scopes that it will work with. And especially knowing that you have no real support. Blindly purchasing a CAA, testing it/trying to install it, it not working and then having to sell it at a loss is disrespectful to customers.
