Iburst would start you with a low offset. But that has really absolutely nothing to do with intrinsic frequency error. Can you run (NTP on) the board outside the cluster? Your problem is that you don't know the correct drift value. It seems simple then: you should find out. I'm not sure if limiting maxpoll is guaranteed to keep your offset low the way running ntpdate often would; frankly I doubt it. Doesn't the cluster allow you to add nodes in standby mode?
