My only worry is that the accuracy of the phone might not be enough to get a tight alignment.

You could however use the phone to get you within the right area, if you are close enough then you should get a minute or more with short focal length lenses, you would also have a good foundation to start a more accurate alignment routine using something like Sharpcap and a guide camera.

I think the best answer to the question will be testing it out.
As soon as I get a good sunny day, on the weekend, when I am home at solar
noon I will mark it all out more accurately, but until then I will go outside as long its not raining and try a few different things.
