The sliding top won't tip if hit by a breeze or anything?
It looks precariously balanced.
Still, it looks like the perfect set up without the expense and landscaping required for a dome.
I had a similar design somewhere on scrap paper I drew for a large box I'm making (half made, combination health and laziness) for my RC8 and mount to make it somewhat portable if it fits in the back seat of my old Falcon (barely I believe) where the lid would double as a platform for computer, eyepieces and other items. In my design I incorporated some old aluminium adjustable crutches cut down and on saddles to swing down when the lid was open (slide or sliding rail which lifts the lid slightly higher) to give the pivot and slide lid some strength (support leg/legs) when open without any additional weight (minimal) or bulk and they are already made.
