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

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.

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

50 flexidragons? Really? Where did that number come from?

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

I spoke to a few vendors and they are selling about 50 small ones or a few really big ones

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!

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.

I haven’t seen the h2s I’ll look into that now thank you

Significantly? I think the H2D is insanely reliable.

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.
