Would a 270 Degree Awing block the crank position for a Maggiolina RTT?

I have on order a passenger side Rhino Rack Batwing awning. My plan was to next get a Maggiolina Airland RTT. Just realized that the crank position for this RTT is only on the passenger side, at the back corner. If I'm running the passenger-side Awning either "up" or "down" with the mounting brackets, it seems to me I'll block my ability to crank the RTT since the Awning has to have its pivot point behind the RTT in order to rotate around the back of my truck. May be that I need to switch to a less-desirable drivers side awning, or a less desirable RTT.

Anyone else thought this through?

I'm not familiar with the Maggiolina crank, but take a look at my photo and maybe you can see whether or not it'll work. I'm sure you can offload that batwing and get the driver side one. Or switch to the Autohome Airtop.

I believe it would.
I have a Fiamma F35 awning and I had to fashion a longer crank handle to clear the awning (when closed).

BTW: nice rig

Thanks. Since I'm in the process of getting both a RTT and an awning, I'm going for the driver's side awning.
