Looks like your mount is performing well if you are able to consistently do 15min subs.

Yes, from Brisbane near the city (Paddington- 10 hours Ha, 11 hours O3).
The mount is doing okay at 1.33 arcsec/pixel, I usually need to throw away about 20% of subs due to poorer tracking in RA. Need to experiment with balancing the mount, because at some telescope orientations subs are very good, maybe need to make it a tad more east-heavy?
