I'll take a stab here as well. Don't use the motors at all.
Do the drift align without the motor(s). Set it up, pointing as close as you can, and let it drift through. Lock the dec axis, and simply hand push the RA axis to sit the star in the crosshairs. I have a Lumicon crosshair eyepiece that has both hairs as parallel lines, and I can have the star fit between them, slightly out of focus, taking up the whole width of the "gap". I align the hairs so they are in line with the RA/Dec.
Make your adjustments with the alt and az settings, repeating as necessary to get it bang on.
