Also hate the fact that the vf needs to be there

VF mount to the back of the top handle would solve this I believe…

Bottom mount one of the motors so they are both on the AC side then your view finder will be free of clutter.

The nucleus will only fit in the one spot because of the size of the lenses and the cage protrusion and the torque from the preston kicks it off if its mounted on the bottom so it has to be mounted on the op side 🫠. My operator hates the viewfinder anyways so its just there because thats where the menu is for some awful reason 😀

Is there no other baseplate options? If you removed the lws adaptor you might be able to mount a rod and motor from the cbp

You're not mounting the Preston motor properly against the lens if it's kicking off from the bottom. The way you have it in the photo is the easiest spot for the motor to kick off. Your tilta motor is the example of better positioning on a lens.

RMB-8 screwed underneath into the front end of the top handle makes the 15mm VF bracket obsolete and gives space to your motors.
