Thank you so much for the time you put in to do this.. as soon as I get my new ssd card delivered, I will be upgrading my V400. Cheers
Hi, you make truly excellent videos, I'm considering purchasing the v400, stumbled across your content during research, subscribed immediately! to mirror other comments here, thankyou for your time, effort and generosity.
I will be upgrading mine because of your video. I can't wait to get rid of the FLSUN klipper. Thanks you for this video.
Thank you very much for your video, I've been looking to do this installation for days.
A thousand thanks!
I hope I can make my V400 work better
I look forward to your test results!
Thanks for Commenting on my video.
I have uploaded a video on calibrating the V400 a few minutes ago. Check at least the conclusion of the video, original Klipper definitely improved it, but unfortunately it did not clear the issue completely.
thanks for making this video it helped me a lot installing Klipper!
Great guide, followed you through why following the instructions too.
Thank you for sharing this valuable information. While it may be a long process, I believe it's worth exploring all the potential benefits of using different plugins and experimenting with various configurations. Your documentation of the process is truly awesome, and I appreciate your hard work and dedication to providing such useful insights.
Thanks a lot for your comment!
I always hope, that my content is useful for the one or the other.
Yes, it is worth the fuzz I would say. There is a lot more you can try afterwards and if you like tinkering with the hardware... it does not get any better than this.
I have added a new vid about calibration yesterday and there will be another video about Input Shaper ADXL345 in near future. Maybe there is some interesting stuff for you coming up ahead as well.
Thanks!
Thank you SO MUCH! I'm very new to 3d printing and there was NO WAY that i could figure it out by myself. You did amazing job! Subscribed for life =)
Thank you for commenting! Really appreciated!
Thanks for all your effort 👌👍
thanks for this huge video, Ill try to put it in my v400
Bleib am Ball und mach auf jeden Fall weiter , bin gespannt auf die nächsten Klipps
Danke für den Kommentar! Ich habe noch einige Ideen für den V400. Bei mir dauert es nur länger, bis Content kommt. Ich will den auch immer ansprechend machen. Nächstes ist ADXL345... sollte "bald" fertig sein.
Thanks for your effort and time. I have attempted this three times so far. Keep getting hung up on creating the firmware flash file. Guess I'll try a fourth time. Can't wait to see if the gaps in your test prints get resolved with Klipper.
Thanks for commenting!
Yes, I am also thrilled about it... want to see if it will improve, but: I am stuck with calibration. I want to do another video and found out, that there is something I should explain a bit better (Extruder Calibration). So I dug down the rabbit hole the past 2 days how I can provide a proper animation for you guys to explain. Tool me now about 5 hrs in total to create the animation (because I am quite a noob with Fusion 360 and that was my weapon of choice). The animation will be 10 seconds in the finished video (well, it will be 2x 10s approx...).
But it happened again: I thought "ah... calibration video... no big deal, this will be done in a tenth of the klipper update video creation time" -> and again it will take me much longer. But my next projects will be less time consuming, that is for sure.
If you have been stuck at Firmware flashing... maybe you have the same issue I had. Try with a considerably less capacity mSD. If you already did... maybe even buy one from new, just to be sure (I would go for 2 - 4 GB). You can see the required Flashing Pattern in my video.
Good luck!
Good work, I can see you put in a lot of effort
Your comment is very appreciated! Thank you.
Yes, it was more work than expected - true.
I hope it is helpful for the one or the other.
Thank you very much. Amazing work
... and Thank you so much for commenting! It is always very appreciated and helps my little channel a lot.
I followed your directions with great success. I'm only having one issue. I installed Crowsnest and now I only get 1fps out of my camera no matter what I do. On the original 1.41 V400 Flsun install the camera worked great. I'm at a loss. It's a Logtech C920.
Great, thank you so much
great job! thanks a lot!
Echt ein super Video. Warte schon gespannt auf die V400 Kalibration; hoffentlich mit adxl ;-)
An dem Cali Video arbeite ich gerade. Ich habe leider sehr wenig Zeit an Ostern. Kann eigentlich nur Nachts arbeiten. Und leider bin ich gleich beim Extruder- kalibrieren an einer Simulation hängen geblieben. Ich will da anschaulich erklären, was es damit auf sich hat und hab ne Simulation gestrickt - nur leider war das meine erste mit Fusion360 und ich musste mir viel zusammen suchen. Die Simulation wird wsl. nur ne Minute in Video ausmachen, hat mich aber über 7h gekostet mittlerweile... Naja... liegt an mir selber, ich möchte gerne guten und schönen Content bringen (wenn ich schon was bringe, soll es passen).
Ich kann aktuell nicht sagen, wann ich das Vid fertig habe, ich hoffe bald!
Danach wird aber sehr wahrscheinlich mal was anderes kommen aus dem nicht- 3D Druck Bereich. Bin allerdings auch noch nicht sicher, ob ich dazu nen neuen Kanal aufmache. Mal schaun.
Vielen Dank für Deinen Comment - das ist immer sehr hilfreich, um den Kanal etwas nach vorne zu bringen.
Many thanks, man! It seems setting block size to 2048 is the key to successful flashing (I used an 8GB uSD card).
Thank you for Commenting!
i used 64 GB successfully!!
i had to use MiniTool partition wizard with default allocation size BUT using MBR instead of GPT and i just created 256mb directory and left the rest unallocated.
Muy interesante, muchas gracias por compartir.
Thank you! I'm considering buying this printer but I'd like to take advantage of input shaping and pressure advance. This is a great way to see what I'm up against. It's either the V400 or the X1 Carbon.
Thanks for commenting!
The two choices are completely opposite I would say. The X1 Carbon is a fire-and-forget Printer... you set it up, most of it automatically and it will work. The V400 is the one you tweak and tinker with.
Input shaping is a two-bladed-sword (does this exist as a wording in english? Not sure...). On the one hand it will smothen your prints (removing irregularities/ little issues) on the other hand it will smoothen your prints (lol) (removing wanted details maybe as well).
You should think about, when you use it and when you better should not.
The V400 ships with Klipper, but as said in the video, there is missing a lot of the original functionality. I consider this not to be mandatory (to do the update) - but I would recommend it.
@@craftingmat5425 in English we usually call it a double edged sword. I understand the trade off when it comes to input shaping. I'm not sure how it works when the kinematics are not linear. I guess it checks for resonant frequencies for each tower? I need to explore it some more.
@@checkavilatility Ah... sure... "double edged". I hope I will learn.
To be honest I did not check ADXL345 in depth but afaik it is only 2 parameters measured and it is (iirc) not for each tower... maybe I am wrong, take this with a pinch of salt. I will know in approx 1 week I assume.
Thank you Mat! Great video!
Is there by any chance a possibility you can share the document file you use to copy paste the text?
Thank you👍 my printer is working fine...ssh coding time is 4h24min😂..but very interesting
thx so much
Hello friend, greetings from Capri. Excellent video even if a bit cumbersome for those who are not familiar with the Fw. However I wanted to ask you something, I own the Flsun v400 with its pad, but I also own a Creality sonic pad, do you think I could manage it from there too, or has it been modified by creality there too? Unfortunately on it I see that it can already handle the flsun q5 and the SR but there is no v400.
Great , Giuseppe
Where can you get that notebook with the steps to follow?
Many thanks again for this.. Problems I am having..after the upgrade, which I did twice just in case I missed something..The extruder would not heat up. I downloaded from V400 the new printer.cfg which fixed that problem. Problems I have now are no wed cam but the most important one is after slicing a file in Cura and sending it to the printer, it will not open the file. Is there something in one of the cfg files that needs changing. I am a Linux user so code I can do to a degree.. Any thoughts or a fix would be great thanks.
Great footage. Worked as a charm. I had no problems with the 32Gb SSD for flashing the Mothrerboard. However, my Speeder Pad will not finish the boot procedure. Don't know why.... I am able to print from MainSail.
Really? This is a very strange behavior, it still persists?
Did you update the Software of the Pad maybe?
@@craftingmat5425
Hello M.
I found out what I did wrong. Nowadays there is a new question in the process that wat not posed when you was making your video. This is(was?) not covered in the Github wiki as wel. I allready informed Guilouz.
I can send you that text as well. It has to do with installing as a service. The first time around I answered No, resulting in the speederpad waiting for this service.
I copied the text from the installproces anc will foreward that.

Hello,
Is this video applicable to those with version 1.4 of FLSun's firmware installed?
Apologies in advance if that is a dumb question.
Danke für das sehr ausfürliche Viedo. Bevor ich starte hätte ich direkt eine Frage. Habe ich es richtig verstanden das ich ohne Probleme wieder auf FLsun klipper umstellen kann?
Danke für deine Hilfe
This is the best explanation for FLSunV400 and I want do for my own maybe the next week thank you :))
And I have a question, the SD card 256MB is flashing for speed pad or the for the print? And it’s necessary 256MB or can I used the 32GB?
The 256MB Card I used for the Printer Firmware. I assume that 2GB and 4GB should also work (blocksize should be 2048 or less when formatting). You need the larger Card (32GB) for the SpeederPad Flashing. As mentioned in my video, I could not get the 32GB Card (which I had and tried first) to work with my printer. You can give it a try as well - I heard of some V400 owners who could flash it even with 32GB Card... I did anything possible (including to reduce the partition size to 2GB, I tried various different Blocksizes...) and it did not work out for me. If you are not out there to deal with that fuzz... I recommend buying a 256, 512MB or 1GB card od alike in advance. They are really cheap - maybe not worth the fuzz as already said...
Thanks for your comment!
@@craftingmat5425 I was able to flash the firmware on my 32GB SDcard by using DISKPART on windows to convert the SD card to MBR format then, I used the tool to create a 2GB partition in FAT32 😁
I couldn't flash my Artillery Sidewinder X1 touchscreen firmware with a 32GB card. I switched to a 512MB card and it worked on the first try. It seems this may be a similar situation.
@@L1lStyle Thanks ! That worked for me
Wenn etwas schief geht beim flashen, kann ich dann irgendwie auf die FLSun Version zurück? Danke!
I must be an idiot, but around the 4:00 mark you have listed many downloads we need to obtain. Where do these downloads come from? Are there any links to them? Thanks for your terrific video and work! PS: I already found the MobaXterm Personal. Cheers.
Where was the downloads? i dont see them :(
This video is extremely valueable for us who plan to do this. Just one question: is the password you insert at 10:58 "flsun"? Is it default or do you have to get it from somewhere?
Thanks for commenting, appreciated.
Yes the Password is "flsun" (the user usually is "pi").
@@craftingmat5425 Thank you. Could you add that to the video description so other people know as well?
@@PunCala I mention it already in my video. 10:46 I already said it is "pi" and exactly 11:00 I mention it is "flsun". I assume everybody who sees the video will know.
Hi, your videos are really the best! everything to perfection! sorry the translation is with google.
I want to do something that I read it but I can't understand. I want to remove the flsun logo and put a small .mp4 video at the start. Can you make a video showing how it's done in v400? thank you!
Thanks for your comment, very appreciated! I think I have already read about the logo somewhere... iirc this was not too difficult. I will check and see if I can do a quick video on that one. I hope I dont mix it up. In case I find out it is not that simple, I will answer you here (you can also remember me in case it takes too long - up to now I read all my comments and also answer them all).
@@craftingmat5425 please !! Watching videos I learned a lot from Klipper but just as you take the time to show the results I didn't see any!!!
@@craftingmat5425 thanks you!
i used 64 GB successfully!!
i had to use MiniTool partition wizard with default allocation size BUT using MBR instead of GPT and i just created 256mb directory and left the rest unallocated.
Thank you for the tip, it worked fine with a 32GB microSD
2 things, 1- where do you find the speeder pad restoration file 1.2? and 2- if you already have firmware 1.4, can you still go through this process (to basically downgrade) to have root?
1. Inside the guide under "Restore OS Image File" you will find the download link 2. Yes you can and have to do that.
Hi you have idea if the head of flsun v400 fit in the super racer? I have klipper installed on my printer and I need a direct driver. Tnx
Hi, I think the crucial part here is the ballheads. For each axis, they need to have the same spacing (the two ballheads need to have same distance between each other on both ends of the rods). So if you want to swap to this head, you may do that if you also change the ballheads (the distance between the ballheads) on the axis- side. The rods need to be completely parallel. I dont know if by chance the distance between the ballheads is identical from SR to V400 - if they are, you can swap. If you swap including the rods you have to be aware, that you lose build height (the rods of the SR should be shorter compared to the rods of the V400). Also the weight changes, which also may bring the one or the other issue.
If you want to do it, because you want to tinker / fiddle around with Hardware (which I completely understand) - I think it would be a cool project. If you think this is a simple conversion which will make your SR printing a larger variety of filaments... I would say "dont do it". Hard to recommend from afar...
Thanks for your comment, very appreciated!
Sherpa mini is the way.
I have followed your video carefully and have been able to install all the steps, but when I now turn on the printer the screen remains on booting system. I can manage the printer through the internet IP address but the screen is frozen with the flsun logo and booting system. Could you tell me why this happened to me, thank you very much for the effort recording the video.
Sorry for my late response. I really have close to no time for this little channel...
Unfortunately I cannot tell you why this happened.
Hi Mine does the same have you manage to get this resolved?
Hey ho erstmal, ich habe dich mit dem Video in einem forum gefunden und hier gelandet. Ich würde auch gerne auf mein v400 ein richtiges klipper machen, aber wenn ich das so sehe und bis jetzt gelesen habe, verstehe ich nur Bahnhof und bekomme schlechte Laune, so das ich erst gar kein bock mehr habe anzufangen. Giebt es eine Möglichkeit oder Anleitungen die verstendlicher und auf deutsch ist ganz easy Schritt für Schritt, habe keine lust anzufangen und am Ende geht nix mehr 😢 brauche dringend deine hilfe 😩🙏
what about the v400's original printer.cfg file?
Okay... what about it?
@craftingmat5425 I'm having trouble with Klipper screen crashing during install losing ssh connection now my speeder pad is frozen.
I have the same issue. Meanwhile, the script "./KlipperScreen/scripts/KlipperScreen-install.sh" works after a while I lose the SSH connection. The speeder pad is no longer seen on the wifi network even.😥
I think my problem was that I had the speeder pad connected to the printer. I removed the usb cable and issue went away.@@neospog
I'm having the same problem and the USB cable isn't connected to the printer. Each time I try, I have to install everything again. Is it the same for you? @neospog @ChadLower
@@X3.1a yes, the same issue. But I think in the last version of Klipperscreen is ok now, isnt it?
@@neospog I'm still stuck, how did you fix the bug ? (with the latest version of KlipperScreen)
dont forget to set date by : hwclock --set --date "dd mmm yyyy HH:MM" or get update cant work, and python get SSL error
Where can you get that notebook with the steps to follow?
