Hi Nik,
You dont need a better mount and you don't need perfect polar alignment.
I take images with a focal length approaching 10m and don't have proper alignment or a high end mount.
Just set Firecapture up so that it guides for you and it will automatically make corrections in both RA and Dec. The resulting files will look like you have perfect polar alignment. Works a treat and beats spending hours polar aligning, balancing etc.
