Been looking at Yukon DSA for a project DIY build does anyone own the g2+DSA seems to be different size larger on the scope fitting clamp and looks to have a different screw in bit on the scope end pics on Scott's country
Two and half million made and three quarters of these still on the road,can you say the same about your 4x4

I'm pretty sure the only difference is the longer 'blind' that screws into the scope clamp part as the lens on the G2+ challenger is shorter than the GS.

They're both the same price though.

I've read all about the problems that people have had with Clive but have no personal experience of it. Adam's link to Clive's E700 adaptor last Friday intrigued me since I have an E700 sitting here and I haven't even started to think about how to mount it behid a scope.
I took the plunge and ordered the adaptor and the DSA.
Within 10 minutes of the purchase being completed, I had an e mail from Clive saying that he had been invited to a shoot on Saturday and that the goods would not go out until Monday.
The package arrived this morning
The adaptor is basically a round plastic bar which has been milled out to take the E700 and a metal cover plate which holds everything in place once the camera has been set up. Got to say it's a very neat job.
So, my experience has been very positive, I got a good product at a fair price with fast delivery and good communication from the seller.
Clive will be getting positive feedback from me.

Cheers

Well, I've had time to have a closer look at Clive's E700 housing and I was wrong - its not a piece plastic bar milled out - it's 3D printed!!
And the rear cover is also 3D printed
Bloody amazing technology -glad to see someone is actually making something useful with it.

Cheers

I just thought I would update everybody with my experience of Mr Ward. Spotting this post yesterday whilst browsing and being on the lookout for a DSA and camera mounting, I clicked on the ebay link and bought this item for £65.00. Within 10 minuites I had an email saying that the goods would be dispatched THE SAME DAY, This morning I received the kit by Royal Mail "Signed for" delivery, exactly as described. Therefore my experience with Clive has been a very positive and professional one and i will be leaving appropriate feedback. posting.php?mode=reply&f=16&t=5924#

I'm losing track now, how many people are now making add-on enclosures for the E700?

We've not had a tricky bit for a while so.... :)
