I've already made a post once before about this, and I first tried posting in the old thread before starting the new one. A more precise title and explanation of the problem may help to solve it this time around.
I'm trying to remove the standards from a Cambo SCX's rail, so as to make it easier to transport. I was told in the last thread that there is a knob that I should be able to loosen, which would allow me to pop the end cap off. From there the standards can be removed.
On my camera, the knob in question unscrews without popping out completely, leaving the plastic rail cap attached. I cannot continue to turn the knob counter-clockwise, nor will the cap budge. I gave it a light hammering with a screwdriver, dampened by an old bike tube, to no avail. Not sure how else to remove the cap, as it seems pretty rooted.
It's not mentioned in the camera's manual, and there are no videos or illustrative pictures that I could find online. Has anyone taken apart a Cambo SCX before? I'd be quite grateful for some help.
Here's a video of me attempting to remove the cap:

I'm also including pictures of the rail, in case someone might recognise it and provide insight.
