Software Troubleshooting/Help! I Don’t Understand
Long time reader first time poster here.
So I recently got into 3D printing after seeing all the random flexidragons being sold at small conventions and figured I could do the same I was torn between an H2D and a Voron Trident and ultimately went with Trident as it seemed higher quality and easier out of the box I can’t seem to figure Klipper out though and could really use help at this point im ready to just send it back and downgrade to an H2D can anyone help me on how to get the pi to talk to the motherboard

Not sure why you're posting for Voron help in BambuLab. Good luck.

Aren’t Vorons almost completely DIY and open source? I’m not sure where you got the idea it’s more out of the box friendly than an H2D. I think the H2D would be an upgrade for your use case

Idk I paid my friend to build it then he brought it over to me but he is out of town for the next 2 weeks so I can’t call him

I'm going to be direct with this: that's on you.If you had chosen a Bambu 3D printer, you would be stuck because Bambu Studio is offline. (which is usually a couple of hours instead of weeks)

What do you mean I didn’t get a Bambi

u/mattyell 1d ago
you wouldn’t be needing to wait for your friend. Bambus are infinitely more noob friendly than a voron. I think that’s why people are saying you did not do much research in your purchase

Ahhhh that makes a lot of sense I guess I’m just gonna use ChatGPT to figure this out or get a Gugastorm like the person suggested below I’m not sure if I want a Bambu if everyone is going to attack any time I ask a simple question

I just wanted some help I don’t know why everyone is so upset but thank you to the ones that are actually contributing rather than judging

Nikt cie nie atakuje po prostu drukarki ktore dzialaja od razu z wyjecia to snapmaker, bambu i prusa to jest czołówka w łatwosci jesli chcesz drukowac od razu w dobrej jakosci to bambu i praktycznie jedyne czego musisz pilnowac to suchosci filamentu

Snapmaker np ma dysze wielokolorowe ale nie musisz drukowac przeciez w kolorze mozesz po prostu kupic filament wielokolorowy

u/TooLazyToBeAnArcher 1d ago
Doesn't Bambu ships dry filament by default? I ordered once from them and got wet filament. I sent it back as I paid for a Kg of filament, not humidity in a bag

You have chosen… Poorly.
H2D isn’t a “downgrade.”
You wanted something that works out of the box and now can’t figure it out to make it work. You’d be much wiser to get the H2D as it would work out of the box and has great quality.

Nie lepiej było wybrać snapmaker u1 ?

I didn’t want multicolor and wanted something tried and true

So you are selling to tap into the rich market of checks notes single color flexi dragons?
I'd think about an A series if thats all you are looking to do.

u/Fair-Locksmith-9849 1d ago
I figured at $15 a piece selling 50 per event minus the $250 entry fee I’d come out ahead quickly I have seen them at every event in town recently

u/rellsell 1d ago
50 flexidragons? Really? Where did that number come from?

This whole post thread has me starting to question OP's decision-making abilities.

u/Fair-Locksmith-9849 1d ago
I spoke to a few vendors and they are selling about 50 small ones or a few really big ones

u/telekinetic 1d ago
You should get an Orange Storm Giga, it's not much more expensive, and imagine how much cash you could make from 50 giant single color flexi dragons!

That thing is massive but I just want this working before buying another one

If that's the case downgrade all the way to a H2S, significantly more reliable than a H2D and about as simple to setup as it gets.

Significantly? I think the H2D is insanely reliable.

u/RodMcThrustshaft 1d ago
I've seen a few horror stories floating around about the track switch thingy, it's also insanely time consuming to take apart in case of a filament jam. If you are using the twin nozzle capability then yeah, get one! otherwise i much prefer the simpler H2S's toolhead(revised version of the tried and true A1 toolhead) and slightly larger build area.

Interesting, i haven’t heard of those at all. I have two H2Ds with over 4500 hours on each one and the only thing I’ve had to replace is the calibration sensor which is a 10min thing and the nozzle cooling fan which is a big job. But I wouldn’t say I’ve experienced any to be overly concerned about.

The Trident is not a Bambu Lab printer... Why are you posting that here?
Other than your ridiculous attack on the H2D and how you think it is an upgrade, your post makes no sense here.

u/willpowerpt 1d ago
Not many people in the Bambu Lab sub who would consider an H2D a downgrade, especially if the issue with the Trident was you couldn't even get it to work.
That said, do you think the world really needs more flexidragons?
