I had a go at processing the download data that appeared yesterday. On the strength of the results, I signed up today & placed my first order.
Public data from http://www.roboscopes.com, Pier 7.
WO FLT132, QSI660-WSG, captured 30/07/2020
NGC6960, Western Veil or Witch's Broom
30, bias, 8 darks, 10 flats (each filter)
Ha 12x300s, OIII 46x300s
Processed with Astro Pixel Processor v1.082 using the HOO scheme for RGB combine.
Original HOO-1: H -> R 100%, OIII -> G 100%, OIII -> B 100%
Final HOO-2: H -> R 100%, G 50%, B 10% & OIII -> R 10%, G 50%, B 100%
Denoise with Neat Image v8.
High res at my Astrobin account.
Observation: high quality data leads to easy processing.

Thats awesome news on all counts 
I do like the vViel and it's infinate colour pallete choices, I prefer 1 over 2 but but the detail is good in both

Please ignore my dylexia wherever possible, just be thankful I can control my Tourettes ;)
Things to do, so little time!

Thanks Steve.
I think the colour scheme becomes a matter of personal taste - the detail is the same.
I processed the previous download data for IC434 - the outcome is at my Astrobin user.
Home is Bortle 6 but I can get Bortle 4 skies at my caravan. The Roboscope site has opened up a whole new world (universe?).

Welcome Dave,
Really great image and processed and posted quicker than I imagined it could. Night worker by any chance?
This has even inspired me to have an attempt today as this is the first data from that pier I have.
Like Steve I have a slight preference for the first colour scheme, but that may in part be down to seeing far more of the red and green combination. Both are very, very nice.
Just wondering what your first pier and target might be, at this rate we shouldn't have too long to wait.
Regards. Ray

Better than that - retired.
It took 10 minutes in APP to calibrate and integrate the Ha & OIII frames using defaults offered. The combine + sharpen/saturation/contrast/black_level (APP) and denoise (Neat Image) a further 20 minutes.
So around 30 minutes tops to produce the images posted. What has been an eye-opener is that with good quality data and the right tools the processing becomes very straightforward.
I have put in an order for Pier 4 NGC7000 with 60x60s & 30x120s. I am curious to see what can be done with one of these big megapixel CMOS cameras. I have unfinished business with M31 so will be looking at collecting some data for an HaLRGB project.
Thanks for the interest.
