Which telescopes are compatible with the Software Bisque C11 Mounting Rings?
These rings are designed for a precise fit with Celestron C11 and RASA 11-inch optical tube assemblies.
Can I attach the Software Bisque C11 rings directly to a Paramount MYT mount?
Yes. The rings have the correct pre-drilled hole pattern to attach directly to the Paramount MYT Versa-Plate, as well as the Versa-Plates for the Paramount ME II and Paramount MX/MX+ mounts.
What is the total weight of the Software Bisque C11 Mounting Rings?
The total weight for the set of mounting rings is 15 lbs. This weight should be included in your total payload calculation for the mount.
I am mounting a Celestron RASA 11-inch on my Paramount MX+. Are these the correct rings?
Yes, these are the ideal rings for your setup. They are specifically designed with the correct hole pattern to attach directly to the Paramount MX+ Versa-Plate, ensuring a rigid, secure connection for your RASA 11 without any additional adapters.
Will these Software Bisque rings prevent flexure when imaging with my C11 EdgeHD on a Paramount ME II?
These rings are engineered to minimize flexure. By providing a precise fit on the 11-inch OTA and a direct, wide-stance connection to the ME II Versa-Plate, this system is inherently more rigid than solutions that rely on separate dovetail bars and clamps, which can introduce flex.
Why should I choose these Software Bisque rings over a generic set of 11-inch rings?
These rings eliminate compatibility issues and the need for extra hardware. The pre-drilled hole pattern is a perfect match for Paramount Versa-Plates, providing a more secure, stable, and cleanly integrated solution than a generic system that would require a separate dovetail plate and saddle.
