I keep seeing posts about the turbulence caused by setting up scopes inside the house and here you are taking images from a balcony in the UK. Wow. Can I have more details of your setup please

I image from my third floor balcony as I live in an apartment complex that used to be a Malt Warehouse. The skies are officially Bortle 4 but the balcony overlooks the block car park and obviously has a lot of local light pollution from the surrounding buildings. 
 

The rig is permanently outdoors, protected by a Telegizmos 365 cover, which does a great job. I have installed a weatherproof mains outlet on the outside and have a bench transformer in a weatherproof box. It’s basically a balcony observatory that can up and running within 5 minutes.
