Still having problems with bed compensation with the dc42 probe

Have a look in DJD's piezo sensor thread?

I'm tempted to try the bltouch as I have the same sort of issues, prints fine 1 side of the bed but no the other, bed is ali tool p[late so I know its flat with printbite on top which again I know is flat by testing it. when I do my comp the height map says its all over the place and cant get a flat bed at all so might try and see if the new probe will help, either that or try one of the new dc probes as mine is an old version[/quote]
If you know the bed is flat, then why bother with compensation? I have a similar issue which I suspect is due to me using 3DLac which changes the reflectivity but as I know the bed is flat and level, I just use the probe for homing.

Ian Rommies issue is that the Effector tilt causes the probe to trigger at differing height around the bed and unfortunately this negates the use of the Bed Comp anyway and the prob will be just the same with a BLTouch.
I think DJ's Piezo idea will do away with that error as it uses the Nozzle tip itself as the probe point.
I wonder how difficult it would be to use Strain gauges on a
CB material or even better a Carbon Fibre effector with a set of Hayden's rod's?
