Bill, I have tried it before. Sharpcap is honestly so much easier and quicker. From mount plonked down aligned roughly with a compass to within a couple seconds of the pole in probably 2 minutes tops.

Marc, yes, it is a quick detach system. Uses 2 Vixen-style finder bases , and a 10cm long finder-dovetail bar, with Baader finder rings. It's basically the same as these: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/New-Tele...m/323327077395. I tried these, but the Baader finder rings are MUCH better - larger diameter shafts. So, I combined the Baader rings and the dovertail from the ones in the link, then used 2 vixen bases. Slide in, slide off. Not sure if the Baader rings are available separately - I got these from a complete Baader finder set-up.
