Sorry photo was taken at angle as I dont have much room to get whole shot in picture
I live near Bundaberg and I have it set at 24.5 degrees more or less as you cant rely on the sticker that comes with the celestron wedge. Set after I did drift alignment.
I will try more aligning tonight just to triple confirm as you never can be to sure I guess.
Still think my weight (balance) isnt quiet correct.

You have to go back to basics.! that is start with your polar alignment
Use the guide i sent you to firstly. get your polar alignment so that you can get at least 1-3 min with very minimal if not any drift.!
Just by looking at the angle you have your wedge plate at it looks more like 70 odd degrees correct me if im wrong, but the closer you get to the equator the flatter the wedge should sit. so theres a good start!
Dont worry about taking images as it will only serve to frustrate you!
then look at your guiding.
