OK Joe Combo Smoker/Grill

Howdy....
Smoking NOOB here...
Wife bought me a OK Joe Combo smoker/grill for Father's day last year... been playing with it, trying to "find it's groove" for a while now...
Decided to break down and buy at controller (BBQ guru CyberQ)... just installed it today
So doing a test run with the BBQ controller.... I find myself babysitting as much as I did when I was doing it by hand.
Few things to mention:
I sealed up the unit (read lots on forums about these smokers), although the vent door still has gaps... probably need to figure out a way to fix...
I've also made myself a charcoal basket and am using some bricks to separate my charcoal to do the minion method...
I can get this arrangement to more or less maintain itself for roughly an hour... but after that, I am having to babysit it all the time. Sure I am missing something.... apologize in advance for probably sounding like an idiot...
Thanks,
