  • Nice not bad! A pretty easy upgrade for power (if you have a mainboard that supports it) is to go to 48v for the steppers with 5160 step sticks, gobs more power, but you are also now getting to territory where a crash can start really breaking stuff. There is also a group in the discord where they are working on the AWD mod to add 2 more steppers to the XY motion allowing for insane speeds.


  • North of ~25mm^3 I’ve found I need to really up the temps to keep up with PLA (mainly using eSun) which then also means a lot more cooling. I managed a pretty decent 14 minute benchy but need to retest as I’ve upgraded my cooling.

    My current setup for extrusion:

    • Rapido high flow with CHT
    • Orbiter 2 with blowy mod to run at higher current
    • CPAP remote cooling with a WS7040 blower
    • HUVUD toolboard on printhead
