I am looking for a case that can hold my Swaro BTX with both 65.. & 95mm objectives (broken down) for travel but also attachable to my pack or slung via sling for hikes to a high point. In a perfect world the case would act like a transformer enabling me to carry the whole rig (spotter, head & tripod all connected). My biggest concern is slipping and falling and busting the damn thing up. I don't see myself packing this in 10 miles but often the hike from a vehicle to a high spot is a mile (give or take) and there just doesn't seem to be a good soft, carry case out there for this?

Just out of curiosity, why do you want to keep the Spotter attached to the tripod/head, while its in your pack?

Its not exactly what you are asking for, but maybe something like the Marsupial Gear cases, along with a spare lense case for the extra objective lense. All attached to a Pals panel/matrix, something like the Hill People Gear Aston Panel. The tripod/head could be attached onto the panel as well if you wanted to. I used this setup when I first bought all my Swaro kit to test and familiarize myself with the optics.

Sometimes I will make a quick hike to glass from a different spot to glass a nearby vista from a nearby saddle o the backside of the mountain. Carrying it ready to glass would be favorable.

UPDATE: Ended up using a Savior AR bag and it is working fine one year later. I even have room for extra layers, tarp, my Helinox chair and other stuff I might want for glassing.
