Mick, the biggest problem is finding a guide star, the LPI does not have the sensitivity of the DSI, I found that it is similar to the ToUcam. If you can get a good guide star then it guides as well as the DSI.
with my setup I mount my scopes side by side, I use a pan and tilt head for the guide scope this allows me to go off axis to get a guide star if there is not one close to the imaging object that I can see with the LPI.

James, if you go back to around Feb / March in the Deep sky forum, you will find a few DSI images I did when I first got the camera, nothing flash here but not to bad for a first time effort, I haven't been doing any DSI images off late but plan to start again as soon as I learn abit more about processing.
There are some great images on the previous web site that had the Drizzle manual listed.

David.
