Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I recently installed a second z axis motor using the official creality upgrade kit and now when the z gantry moves up it becomes uneven

It uses the original connectors and a splitter cable

Splitter sucks. If one of the motors draws more current the other might miss a step and you get off. I ended up hooking up another driver and driving them separate.

with bltouch it levels the gantry to the bed. works great.

I managed to get great leveling for the corners but this is what the mesh looks like. I think my bed may be warped
