Are you intending to leave the OTA attached to the mount or splitting them up?

I suggest you put them gently on the floor in whatever configuration you intend to stow them in leaving enough room for foam padding, etc.. then measure around them & you'll have your box/bag dimensions...

Totally on spec & because I have looked at one of these for my Vixen R130SF have a look at this... not stupid expensive but, will need you to add foam which does put the overall price up but, still well short of the Celestron case I suspect... Unfortunately, this box is literally 5mm too short for my Vixen...

It may not meet your needs but, might be worth a look...
