I am looking for a combination Arca/Pic mounting option for my Innorel RT90C with leveling base. Previously I had the field optics research mount (pictured) on it but have moved it to the Arctise 80C that I got as a lighter option for hunting. The field optics research mount is no longer made. I am aware of the Midwest Offroad plate the make for the 90C so you can use an Anvil 30 but anvil 30’s are unobtainium for now. Any other good options out there?

I don't know about other options, but as an owner of the RT90/Midwest/Anvil 30 combo, it's worth the wait and effort to find one.

Field Optics Research still makes the picatinny/Arca clamp: https://www.fieldopticsresearch.com...Lever-Clamp-with-Pan-Axis---NEW-x51632630.htm
They do not have it on the website, but they do make a flat plate that fits with their band clamp to adapt to other tripods with flat disk an 3/8 stud. I am sure you can call them and get one.

I should clarify. They still make a mount like the one in the picture but it has been re-designed. You can no longer remove the pan axis of their mount like I did.

Some modification required. I’m happy with the end result. TA-LBSC and TA-UPF from RRS.

You can see in the picture of the final assembly where I cut the bubble level off and colored the bare aluminum with a sharpie. Also used a 1/2 drill bit to remove the “step” of the center hole so it could sit flush.

Is the TA-LBSC adjustable to account for width variations of arca rails? The SC-LR clamp is, but RRS provides no info (or appropriate photos of the relevant side) on the TA-LBSC .
