- I have had a lot of people with questions about the skr mini v3 so I figured now would be a good time to pick on up. In this video, I cover the differences between the v2 and v3 and provide a recommendation on which one to get.
If you have any questions on the content covered in this video, feel free to leave a comment below with them. I try to reply to all comments within 48 hours.

I didn't get a duck with my v3 either... felt a little shorted. I went from the original ender 3 pro board to this board and it was night and day. Love the fan controls and the quiet steppers. Thanks for the review.
Hi. It’s odd that the ducks are in some of them but not all, not sure why. I agree that this board is a huge upgrade from the stock one.
Hi Rob. First of all I want to thank you greatly! You have no idea how much time I spent trying to fix a problem finding a good firmware to make my Ender 3 Pro to work with CR Touch and a 4.2.7 board. Finally I came about your 3D website and what a relief... I finally managed to fix all the issues. With that said I want to do a bit more than just thank you. If you are a Star Wars fan, I do make models of ships and Pod Racers, all out of my own interpretation and imagination. I would like to send you one of this models, I paint them and make dioramas. Let me know how I can send you a model. Its the least I should do to thank you for all you do.
Hi. Im glad i was able to help :). Can you ping me on discord?
Great review! Any chance in the near future do a review on BTT’s new SKR3?
Hi. I will take a look at it and see what I can do.
Acalaids:
If you are having issues, I was having issues with Visual Studios (to build the firmware), and I went into their Discord and posted a message in their "general help" and Patrick popped in and was able to help me. My problem was with Visual Studios it just plain did not want to work on my Windows 10. Sure glad they will live help, people this is a cool thing.
Hi. Thanks for sharing :)
Hey I gotta idea for your channel. There is a mpcnc low rider v3 that just came out you should build one and show how you put it together.
Hi. I will look into it, thanks for the recommendation.
Curious which chip yours came with cause there are mentions of GD chips making their ways into the SKR boards? I have had the mini e3 v3 for about 3-4 months now and it has been great What pisses me off about the board if the fact that BTT boasted about dual Z axis when in reality this board does NOT support dual Z. It has dual z ports BUT they share the same driver and that wasn't fully made clear in their advertising otherwise I would never had gotten this board. No G34. No dual extrusion. I have ran both Klipper and Marlin using CR touch. It's been a great board. BTW, mine did come with the rubber ducky🤪
Hi. I will need to take a look at the board to see what chip came with it. I will try to do that today or tomorrow.
Love the V3, especially when combined with the TFT35. I had the V2 before and I was happy with it, but parts of the board started failing on the V2 after a year, so I upgraded to the V3 recently. My biggest problem now though is I cannot connect my printer with this board to my Raspberry Pi for Octoprint. As far as I can search there is not a solid fix or guide on how to fix this. So for now I have a printer that is ‘offline’ and needs to be manually started with SD card, and the others have to stay with the V2.
Hi. Are you using a data usb cable? I know many of the charging cables are power only and wont work in cases like this.
@@3DPrintscape funny enough I sinply did a hard reset of both the printer and the Pi and after the second power cycle it started working normally. Im assuming it had something to do with detecting a communication port? 🤷♂️
@@WeeabooShipPoster Ya, something could have had a lock on it.
Did the v3 end up being more long-lived than the v2 was? Did the firmware issues ever get sorted out on the v3....stability like the v2?
I really hope there's a video on configuring the firmware for the V3 soon...with the BLTouch specifically. Been sitting on this setup in my Ender 3 Pro for a while and don't really know what I'm doing as far as coding Marlin in VS Code.
Hi. I hope to have this video out next week.
@@3DPrintscape Awesome! I really appreciate you taking the time to go into this! I've been looking for weeks for a guide to getting my setup to start working again. I don't know if it matters but, I also use CURA as my slicer and I've seen videos that mention modifying the code in there as well for different setups. Not sure if it would apply here or not. Thanks again!
@@leogomes8119 You will want to add the g29 code in the machine profile in cura. I have two firmware videos coming up for the v3. The first one will be coving the basic firmware and updating it, the second will be the marlin build. The marlin one probably wont be next week but will be the release after that.
@@3DPrintscape I have no idea what I am doing with this, so I am looking forward to this video. All I know is that I need a new board but I don't know how to set it up.
@@3DPrintscape Just to be clear, what exactly do I add in the G29 line? I really have no idea...
I got my rubber duck with it. I'm having problems with it and the cr touch for z-stop functionality though.
Hi. I think i got ripped off by not getting the duck lol. Can you give more details on the issue your having.
@@3DPrintscape I've ended up fixing the issue, for some reason the firmware they provided didnt want to work properly for me but compiling marlin myself fixed the issues.
I couldn't build the firmware using the platformio for the skr mini e3 v3 in particular, but the other board is normal. Do you have any suggestion ??
Hi. What issues are you having?
I got a duck with both the v3 and the screen I ordered separately. Idk man I would refund until I got a duck, jokes lmao. Great video!
Haha, ya maybe i should return it and get a new one.
is there an issue with connecting to octoprint with the skr mini v3 board? I installed the bin from the 3D printscape site and can't connect to octoprint
Hi. I havent had any issues. Make sure your using a cable that is meant for data (not just charging) and that you selected the right port and baudrate in octoprint.
I have a Ender 5 plus and also have a used 5 plus silent not installed, what would you say would be a better option on the 5 plus the Creality silent board of the SKR mini E3 v2 or V3?
Hi. Honestly if you want a screen like the tft35 i would go with one of the skr boards. If you dont care about that any of the boards will work just fine for you.
@@3DPrintscape Thanks mate, i should have mentrrioned io am planning on going klipper at some point was well
@@glenncol Personally, i would go with one of the skr boards but if you already got the creality one it will work as well.
tried everything for the v3, could not get the micro sd card to work with the ribbon cable or by itself. Had to compile with marlin bugfix and not the bigtreetech files because it would fail on the build. It would read the firmware.bin file on startup, but would not read the sd card after. I setup a return for the v3 and ordered the v2 yesterday.
Hi. It seems people have had hit or miss luck with the v3.
Sorry since this is very long after the initial message, but I have the same error, the reason it occurs with an adapter is because there's a physical sensor, but even when I use SD_NO_DETECT which should bypass that check, it still won't read from an sd card reader, but a regular micro sd will still work. Did you end up finding a fix for it in the end? I'm concerned about damaging the micro-sd port without having an adapter, and alternatives are a $60 touch screen, or $70 for a raspberry pi, neither of which I particularly concerned with as a replacement board would be half that price and I'm not interested in the features those products provide either.
@@InfernoViperz123 I returned the v3 and got the v2 board and bought the touch screen as well. When there is more support for the v3 maybe I’ll switch.
@@brandonknight8671 I ended up just returning my CR Touch, its not too bad leveling the bed with Marlin 2.0 and honestly it was just too much of a pain to deal with that it wasn't worth it. Plus, the fact that the Z-Stop preventing my bed from getting scratched couldn't be plugged in and having to rely on the CR Touch to protect the nozzle and bed (half the time it didn't).
On another note, do you have any other recommendations for paid modifications to get, which have real functional use. I've mainly been looking for a way to transfer over WiFi, I saw the TFT35 board has support, and the RaspBerry Pi, but both are fairly expensive for just WiFi.
@@InfernoViperz123 bondtech bmg extruder and e3d v6 extruder combo. print yourself a fan duct and you should be good. I also used a dual z rod kit
What would happen if I just use V2 firmware on the V3?
Hi. Hard to say for sure. If it takes the firmware pins and other things changed between boards so im sure there will be issues; I just cant say exactly what. Im also not sure it will even take the firmware.
If anyone sees this I have the BIGTREETECH SKR Mini E3 V1.2 Control Board 32Bit with TMC2209 in my ender 3 pro already. Is it worth going to the E3? I am a hobbyist but my next project is 3d printing parts to make my own CNC. Last project was the open rc f1 car.
Hi. If your v1.2 is working im not sure its worth upgrading unless there is something specific your looking for from the new board.
@@3DPrintscape I got it working. Couldn’t get latest marlin to compile right but got 2.0.9 I think working. So I got the mesh leveling stuff now.
I really need some help I am switching over toPETG and have tried everything I can think of and seen and still can not get PETG to stick to my glass bed head temp 230 to 240 bed 70 to 80 no fan is what is called for. Tried glue hairspray everything I have seen . Can’t find and help
Hi. Is it sticking at all and if you switch back to pla does it work as expected.
@@3DPrintscape the big problem is i installed a cr touch and it will not take the z off set alway to high. i have delete the eeprom from my sd card rehomed put in my new z off set. re homed and set z to (0) and still to high. this causees the filiment to stick to the nozzle and can not print.
@@3DPrintscape will i installed a cr touch to my ender3 and it will not save my z off set. I have deleted my eeprom from my sd card and homed the printer set my z off set saved it and then rehomed moved z to (0) and it is still to high. this causes the filiment to curl and stick to the nozzle before i can tune z on the fly. im sure this will happen with PLa. i have been all over the internet have seen were people have had this problem but know answers. it has be week i have been working on this thinking about taken the cr touch off.
@@markwilds2517 The z offset should be a negative value. Are you able to use baby stepping to dial it in once you start printing?
@@3DPrintscape no I am trying to print PETG and start clogging nozzle before I can get it down
duck is not included due to fear of patent infringement in some areas
Interesting, i got ducks before with other BTT products.
I got a duck with a v3 twice. don’t know curious
@@jimmorgan7765 Nice, ya im not sure where mine went then lol
No CR10 profile for the v3, unless you're a huge firmware nerd you're using the V2 for CR10
Hi. Good to know, thanks for sharing.
Youre a lifesaver, I just picked up this board for my CR10 and realized theres no specific fw. Ill give this a try when I get to installing and report back.
no duck with mine
Odd, not sure why they are shipping that way these days.
I'd take mini usb any day over micro. micro usb is the worst connector ever.
Hi, I dont disagree but i wish they would have just used usb c.
nice review. Bob. Is there any way I can reach out to you by email? I have some business proposals for you.
Hi. You can email me at admin@3dprintscape.com
