The firmware from statistics is A1F7 (though when the controller boots up it shows 497EP A1F1, is this the same?)

Yep, thats good and its the best firmware for what you are doing

I couldn't find any settings under drive train except that it started asking me if i wanted to train the drives

If BINTEL loaded the patched firmware, you should now have 4 entries under drive train. The last 2 will be something like RA= and DEC=
Hitting enter on these will allow you to read/edit the drive train values direct from the Hbx.
Other that that, you can use my PEC editor to read a lot more of the data out via a PC connection.

Are these settings acceptable?

The 10% lash may be too low, but we need to know what the drive train numbers are as well, as the two work in conjunction.
The drive train is done first to define the magnitude of the lash.
The percentages are then tweaked to improve the "responsiveness" of reversals.

I was told by Bintel that they dont install the firmware from Meade but from another site, which contains fixes for the meade firmware done by some guy. Forgot the name sorry

A1F7 is actually Meades firmware, but third party patches are then applied to fix a lot of the known bugs. I am the "name" who did the patches for the Audiostars
