Still learning the nuances of AutoStakkert and Registax.

Very nice. It was always interesting to me to look at the moon at high mag both to see the moon but also to see the effects of the atmosphere and seeing. It's so much more clear to see than when looking at DSOs. Not in a long time and not with anything remotely similar to your gear, but I've used registax a few times. It's good stuff. I haven't ever done the video thing. I know that has been the method for capturing planetary stuff for a while.
