Pressure Advance + Slic3r PE retractions et al ... Funky results
-
Im going to have to do some more testing and tweeking ... ran some non "benchy" type parts and I noticed the Press Adv is not dialed in ... Im not getting a solid line of plastic all the way to the END on solid infill. The line STARTS look pretty good , but there are defo lines od infill that have small gaps at the end.
So far now Im going to
- increase retraction from 1.00 to 1.25
- reduce Pressure Advance from .08 back to .065 / .060
- increase line width - back to .55 for my .50 nozzle
Additionally I need to get a handle on why my Y axis motor is now developed a whine at speeds above 30 mms
Hope to get this material dialed in - and then sort out how to change the slice method and move to FW retracton etc ... sounds mo bettah

Consider tuning retraction and speeds first without any pressure advance, and then adding some in slowly after that.
I would say it really only starts to make a big difference when you start pushing speeds up around 100.
There was some pressure advance specific test files as well that make it easier to dial in separately.
