It's probably starting to get a bit late in the year for M42, it sets pretty early in the evening.
It sounds like you want to capture the body of the Milky Way, is that correct? You don't really need the Star Adventurer to do that. My nephew consistently does 30sec exposures just on a tripod.
So you know how to polar align the Star Adventurer, because you will need that at some stage. This thread may help

As for actually finding stuff in the night sky, you could try Stellarium, or grab a star chart and head out into the garden.
