Thanks a ton! I'll try it out this weekend. I've also commented out the homing and added the Z0.2 offset script as I had trouble printing the robot.g due to the head being too close to the print surface. It's taking longer to get the soles of his feet of the print surface than it took to print...

OK, thanks. I had seen that thread but didn't understand what I need to do. I'll have to read it a few more times. I'm happy with the 4-point probing, but at the start of robot.g it probes the centre again so maybe that's causing problems.

If you mean the bed.g in the sys folder, it has two G31 codes; Z-0.2 followed by another with Z0.1 WTF?

I can never understand why there would be any reason to set the first layer height to anything other than 100%, the same goes for the extrusion multiplier. Both are nothing more than fudge factors because there's something else wrong with your setup.Quote

I have set the first layer settings in S3D to 175%...

Z-0.5 was definitely aggressive, but a LOT better than Z0.1 FFS! Z-0.2 is probably fine, I'll try Z-0.3 next and go from there.

The head doesn't stay level as you move away from the centre. I am sure this isn't modeled correctly if at all. Sounds like an arm length of 165 might be a good compromise for now.
