I second eta carina for DSO with an adventurer. Big and bright.
I found I had to set mine up with an electronic level and the gps in my camera so it was roughly pointing in the right direction before dark before I could find the Octans stars in the polar scope. Many false leads up there. Also a SW polar clock utility downloaded on my phone to check octans rotation and align by eye through the scope just on dark.
Once there it worked well. Even with a 400 lense. Never used the polar scope light. Hopeless . A red torch works better.
