It sounds like the Atlux is quite a decent mount - have fun. Here is a link to post I did showing how I got around the lack of fine adjustments on the Tak.
I use TPoint so I don't have any thoughts on MaxPoint, sorry but with TPoint I can get to within 10 - 15 arcseconds of the pole after a bit of work (about an hour) using, combination, TheSky, CCDSoft, AutomapperII and TPoint.
