For a target the size of the Moon, the resolution you get from a single fast still frame is always going to be vastly better than the best HD video can do, even in less-than-ideal conditions. Hugely better. Video stacking is the only way to go for very small fuzzy targets like planets, but for the Moon you're far better off taking a single shot than wasting time & effort using video.
This was a single RAW photo taken with a cheap Nikon through the same exact OTA as yours. Mild editing done in Lightroom. It's considerably shrunken here to fit the 200kb IIS restriction but the original resolution is wonderful - razor sharp right down to the pixel level and it's a 24MP camera. ISO 400, 1/1250.
For a good full Moon shot just take a dozen or so of these and pick the best one.
(Different story doing close-ups on craters, of course. Once again it's all about Barlow lenses and stacking videos.)
