Yes, the first setup I did was with the polar scope and it was pretty good (though I have not checked the polar scope alignment yet) but at the recent camp the problem was skies too dark so many stars to choose from to try and pick out Octans. That or it was off by more than half the polar scope FOV, leaving you guessing.
The usual problem does apply though, the polar scope screen is illuminated by a red LED in front of the polar scope itself so it tends to wash out both stars and background if it is turned up bright enough to see the markings, a common issue by what I can see.
