Looks like you have the makings of a good system here Tristan.
Maybe they accidently sold me one that let's more HA in then usual haha, I was quiet surprised when they came out of DSS.

Stretching of stars I think is due the rough polar align, and/or the mount not setting to a low enough latitude (stops about 29°)

I was at F/1.8
