Idea for a Gibraltar 5

I love the grab and go, of course ...

Now: I'd like to use my AP 130 EDF on the "big sister" , the Gibraltar 5.

Before I buy it, I need to know the inner width of the cradle, because the AP OTA diameter is larger the TV127.

The diameter of the OTA of AP130 is 14.2 cm (circunference is 44.5 cm).

How large is the cradle of the Gibraltar 5 ?
Do you think It is possible to install the AP130 on a pair of ring and a losmandy/vixen plate into the cradle ?

Can anyone help me ?

(please, write in plain english, I'm a stranger !)

Ho usato per avere un Gibilterra-5. Bella treppiede, ma difficile trovare un equilibrio. Io uso un Discmounts DM-4 adesso. eccellente treppiede. Forse il DM-6 è meglio per il vostro telescopio. Buona fortuna
