    I definitely think it's worth it! My printer used to sound like R2-D2, now I can't even hear when it's on.

    Upgraded my Ender 3 with the 4.2.7 board. Amazingly silent except for the noisy fans. The stepper noise used to mask the fan noise. Extremely happy with my 4.2.7 upgrade :)

    I wouldn't say im hard to make laugh, but you really caught me off guard with the sounds you made of how the 3d printers sound LOL. it was spot on.

    FINALLY! So many vids on how to install the V4.2.7, but no one else actually has the difference in sound. Like you said... WORTH THE $50!!!
    Thanks for making a sensible vid about what we all wanted to know.

    The bl touch port is to add a bl touch or a cr touch to your printer. It's not for a touch screen, that would be that rainbow ribbon cable on the LCD.

    I was looking to do the same upgrade I just picked up an Ender 3 Pro this last weekend and you’re right holy cow is this thing loud. Lol I have an Ender 2 Pro and it’s much quieter. I do have a question hopefully you can answer but did you just board swap and that was it, or did you have to flash a firmware onto it to get it to work with your Ender 3 Pro? Thanks!

    I wonder if he ever turned the board over and looked at the bottom side to see its wonderfully complete labeling of "the big wires" area? :) That's one thing I gotta give Creality props for - their boards are well-labeled.

    I remember installing my CR touch and finding the hot glue 😨, so annoying. I’ve just got the new motherboard so I will look forward to removing this all then 😅. What are your thoughts of using hot glue to secure them onto the new board? Reckon it’s just to prevent damage during transit?

    • @LegacyStudio
      @LegacyStudio  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Well I admit I am not a "pro" in any way when it comes to 3d printers. Ive given away 2 of my systems and just have my two Ender 3 Pros now. I personally didnt re-glue them myself, but absolutely I can see merit to a small dab of hot-glue to help with transport and just general proper maintainability.

      @@LegacyStudioI just have a quick question. I have just upgraded my Ender 3 max and it now does not seem to auto level properly. Did your circuit and firmware update work right away without any additional calibration?

    The wire locations are silk screened on the back of the board... dont worry i didn't see till the third time i pulled it to troubleshoot stuff.

      and if you need to know the stepper driver chip type for marlin updates its the sticker (or magic marker on older ones) on the sd card slot.

  • @3Bud
    @3Bud ปีที่แล้ว

    you should reference in the beginning to do a load of research prior to even touching the board. you had the potential to brick your printer by turning it on and not making sure the correct firmware version was on there first. maybe tell people to take a picture of the boars before removal and to have it unplugged... safety items.
    otherwise good job man

      @@LegacyStudio it's fine when it was working, but I'd say, if your happy with your printer as it is, just leave it , a CR or BL touch is just something else to go wrong 🤷
