Pretty good start. I just started myself a few months ago too using similar equipment. There is a lot to learn. When I started the planets were low, just above the horizon. I had issues with the scope slipping down because it was nearly horizontal so I added counterweights to the end of the tube. (just some lead sinkers in a sock tied with string) might help balance your camera weight. Find I don't need it now with the planets being higher in the sky but it worked at the time.
