TLDW: If you want to diagnose issues and tinker with printer upgrades, get a Creality, but if you just want good quality prints with minimal headache, get a Bambu, Prusa, or Qidi
Ain't that the truth. I just got a Qidi X-Plus 3 and it prints flawless out of the box. I'm getting the smoothest prints I've ever seen. Absolutely no layer lines and the speed is amazing.
They also excessively glued all of the plugs to the motherboard on the print head making maintenance impossible it’s great :) my new motherboard will be here on Tuesday 🤦♂️
@@WillOnParade I understand; in theory, if I just replace the stock pulleys of K1Max for smaller ones, the printer will work the same way, but with less vibration (and VFA).

All printers have issues. This time around seems Creality got it right with this 2nd revision.

It's done so they don't come undone randomly, with all the vibration. But still a pain.
Hi, what is the firmware version? Is it the same version of the K1 Max first generation?
It's the same K1 Max firmware.
@@WillOnParade Very interesting! Even with smaller pulleys it uses the same firmware.
Software will run the same. The only difference is the smaller pulley will cause less vibration causing less VFA.

Right. Basically the same thing they've done with this version 2 K1 Max
