    I recently got the X2 of this model and it been great as my 1st 3d printer. Excellent build guide and very thorough. Would like recommend moving the nozzle when levelling to approximately where the screw meets the bed, it's given the most consistent results. Only thing I've upgraded is a printed side mount off thingiverse, the ptfe tube to a capricorn type with my rc car body clips which happens to fit like a glove on the coupler.
    Update: Do not. I repeat, do not get an Aquila X2 or any Aquila's with H32 board. After sales and support horrendous, partial refund is a trick to get out of warranty obligations. Now owning Aquila X2, Ender 2 Pro and Flsun SR no 3d printer in this day and age should be sold without auto bed leveling and pei flexible bed. Don't try and save a few dollars, save yourself blood, sweat and teats and get whatever's the best deal that comes with A. auto bed level B. PEI flexible sheet and maybe direct-drive for the money. Right now if I had to buy a cartesian bedslinger it's be the Anycubic Kobra or Ender S1 depending if I want value an updrade path. No more bed slingers for me now that X1 Carbon/M5 is on coming up soon

      Yep any I've owned the OG Kobra and that was great with the auto bed levelling. Now the new Kobra 2's are really great. Though I've since gone through a few prints ie.. Flsun SR, Ender 2 Pro, Kobra and now Bambu Lab P1S (with AMS) and can say if you can afford get the P1S. Seems pricey but everything I learnt on mastering bedslingers mean nothing now. I might need to tune flow rate and pressure advance but that's it. All I do is print and not think about tuning, belt tension, Z offset, manually purging filament, bed levelly springs ect. I just print. Worth every dollar.@@PERSONALEEMG

    • @jasonwu2758
      @jasonwu2758 Год назад

      It's good starter to learn the basics and all but if you're not into tinkering and fine tuning everything get any of the new printers with auto bed level. I've settled on a Bambu Lab P1S and don't need any other 3D printer unless I need bigger build volume@@LillEngineered

    You could have used a level & square to make sure the gantry is level, square, & plumb while tightening the Z axis rails. I wish manufacturers would design 3D printers with linear rails, ball screws with anti backlash brass couplings, & servo motors. With mass production, the cost of these upgrades should only increase from $30.00 - 50.00.

  • @eligiodeluna8309
    @eligiodeluna8309 2 года назад

    Thanks for the video. Unfortunately no matter what I do, the bed seems to be higher in one corner than the other 3 corners. If I loosen all four bed nuts (ie: no tension on the springs) and manually lower the x gantry so that nozzle touches the bed above the left rear corner, as I move from corner to corner the distance changes as follows: right rear about 1/16", right front about 3/32 and left front about 1/32". No matter how much you adjust the nuts you can never get the bed level and always end up with the left rear spring compressed to about 90% and the other three to some other value but definitely less than 50%. I measured from the top rail of the frame to the top of the x gantry on both the left and right side and there is a difference of about 1/16" (for example 4" on the left and 4 1/16" on the right). How do you correct a gantry that is lower on one side than it is on the other side?

If I hold the tubing in place while printing, the filament starts to print out of the needle properly but once I let go, the plastic tubing is just pushed out and the filament won't feed into the needle anymore. Any fixes or workaround for this?

    I don´t know why, but i could not print til the end, while printing it slides off the space, looks like the bed goes too cold while printing, what should I do?

      Others have suggested raising the bed temp slightly.
