you're a lifesaver, that was the info i needed, right away. And then i got some bonus tips! I appreciate you going through the time to make this video good sir
This is really good advice. I do the same with my printer, testing thst z offset at least 3-4 times. I do the same with estep calibrations as well. As for estep calibrations i just disconnect the bowden from thrle extruder and feed 100m out the bottom after a flush cut. Do the estep calculations, save it and do it 3-4 more times. Really like this video!
Thank you so much for this video, so clear! I'm saving it in my favorites! At first while printing I couldn't see the differences very much, but when you pulled it off the bed it all got much clearer! I'm subscribing! ^^
This is exactly the channel and content i need. I have the QQS pro and it's been great until recently, i just started having issues. So I'm gonna start from step one and get it all calibrated
The slightly rough to the touch area is the only part of the square that stayed together which means the squish is right and each pass is sticking to its neighbour. The areas where you raised the nozzle so that it felt smooth all came apart and each pass was not sticking to its neighbour which means the squish is not enough. I get the same effect with my SR, adjust the Z height so it all feels smooth and when you remove it from the bed it all falls apart.
This is good info, i wished i knew this before, Ive been messing like a day(or 2) to get it right...but its so simple, i made the mistake to go up a step to make the paper lose again. It was never consistence.
My auto level and adjust z do not respond when i prompt the machine to do so from the touch screen. Any reasons why or how to fix? Nothing has worked for me
@@dennisgignac5103any luck troubleshooting this issue? I too am having a similar issue. During print if I input Z height adjustment the SR makes a strange noise (not heard otherwise) for a period of time, maybe 5-10 seconds? It never appears to actually change distance regardless of how much adjustment input is selected. No issues with printer other than this and it's driving me bonkers lol. Thank you in advance for your thoughts and ideas pertaining to this matter. Also, awesome content and videos (newly subscribed and sharing!)!
Really good info about the mechanical backlash, nobody ever mentions that! Dennis, could you do an extruder and belt maintenance video for the direct drive on the V400?
Very good video! I bought a super racer and I'm having problems with the printing, do you have a profile to share? The prints come out half melted or with marked threads, the strange thing is that the test model of the nut that the printer includes came out impeccable, the problem is other stls so I think it is a cure configuration.
Hi, thanks this is great advice, wish I'd seen it when I got my SR a few months ago. I do seem to have bed adhesion issues with my printer, I can't seem to print multiple objects at different places on the bed without some of them coming off in the first layer. Would carrying this out help or is there something else I should do. To note, a singular print on the bed sticks fine (sometimes too well) and comes out nicely but of course, for smaller prints that I want multiple off, it can be a bit wasteful to have to print one at a time.
Hello Leah: If this issue is extream, check your belts. Sometimes there is a worn spot on one of the belts. Look good, sometimes the worn spot is hard to see... But I get this also once in a while so I use this !!!

Nice video. Thnks. My issue with sr is the nozzle hit the model. Or the supports and its get out from bed. I tried and gyroid infill but still touching
There is no set value. Once you calibrate, you have to set the z height using a piece of paper and save. Then run a flat test on the first ;ayer then adjust if not perfect...
Hi Dennis, thank you for your videos! I have a question:when you adjust the z height while you're printing, is this one saved after the print? Or have I change anyway the z height in the correleted menu?
When doing a calibration it measures several points, AS IF it would do a mesh calibration - however, the SR does NOT. It just uses a SINGLE Z-value afterwards (perhaps the average of all, I don't know). So if your heatplate is not absolutely even, it will result in uneven first layers. Lots of SR users seem to have this problem 😫I hope they will fix this by firmare update.
Hey Dennis. I just bought the FLSUN Super Racer. Right out of the box it makes this beeping sound coming from the extruder. Can you tell me what the issue is. Thanks.
@@dennisgignac5103 It only did it on the g-code included with the sd card. I have done several prints from Thingaverse with no issues. Everything is working perfect now. Thanks so much for responding.
I followed this advice on loading filament from your other video. I have NEVER had issues with the extruder and I equate it all to you. Thanks!

This is gold! Thank you so much for the clear, detailed instruction and examples.
Great video Dennis- wish you would have provided a link to test print you used however....
Your tip at 5:30... remarkable!

Great video most.videos don't even tell you to heat the bed on this model and also I was having issues with leveling but you just fixed that great job

You sir are a legend, thanks for the tips that i will use on my SR
Dennis is the man!🏆

thank you not so many videos for flsun, i have the v400 but sr is very similar.
please more videos for the v400 :)
I certainly will !!!
hi what is the handheld your using?
Nice video. Thnks. My issue with sr is the nozzle hit the model. Or the supports and its get out from bed. I tried and gyroid infill but still touching
Perhaps you can send me some video with the sound included so that I can analyze...
Hello! What value was the Z height set to? Unfortunately, it is not visible in the video. Thanks in advance
There is no set value. Once you calibrate, you have to set the z height using a piece of paper and save. Then run a flat test on the first ;ayer then adjust if not perfect...

@@dennisgignac5103 thank you ☺️
Do you have the STL file of the square
You don't heat up the nozzle and bed before setting your Z ?

Is their a need to do a delta calibration I'm using 1.4 on my SR
Should you have the bed hot (60c) to adjust the Z? I hear but don't know, heating up will expand the plate... is this true
Yes indeed...
I have the v400 and the z offset changes after every print. Its becoming infuriating, im very new and dont understand why
What about e-step calibration?
I have not done it on the SR. BUT, here is a great video and easy to follow...
