            I ran into more issues when I calibrated over 6 factors. Six ended up working great for me. More wasn't better in this case when I set up my delta. The trigger height corrections are what you'll need to establish and plug in. Once you get those nailed, you'll be off and running.

              9 factors is looking better for me

              im using a piezo in the print head so i have no variation in trigger height

              Calibrated 9 factors using 17 points, deviation before 0.159 after 0.034

                That's a lot better. What are your M665 and M666 changes?

                    M500 will save that to override.g and if you have M501 at the end of your config.g, it'll use those settings.

                      so yes, 9 made the calibration look good, but it did not make it print good. back to 6 i guess

                          Things where great near the center, but out near the edges it went right off the bed. I guess it
                          changing the arm length by 14mm was not the best

                                Is there a list somewhere of what the different factors are? i saw one once but it only went up to 7.

                                    I think that is better, you can even see on the heightmap where i have binder clips holding the heatspreader plate down.

                                    Calibrated 8 factors using 17 points, deviation before 0.087 after 0.056

                                      Earlier you said it went off the bed. Are you saying it tried printing off the edge of the bed? Is your build plate 270mm+?

                                        it actually went off during a calibration not a print, the first time through the calibration it looked good, later it went off the edge, yes the bed itself is 310,

                                          Is this a Rostock, by chance?

                                            in concept yes…but i think the heat bed is the only actual real rostock part,
