the heatsink is included. You can optionally add the rest of the V6, which is what i did and the one i got is 1.75. I dont see any options for 3, so i think they are all 1.75. though i could be mistaken and it could be a possible option, i just know the one i got is 1.75.

I figured out the problem. It appears that when the spool hit the screen it knocked a component right off the back. looks like a capacitor or something, a raised oval with a 10,000 written on it, found that when i was working on the printer last night.

ok, if i randomly start pressing all over the screen every once in a while i get a beep, but thats all that has happened so far

i re-flashed the firmware and still get just a white screen, nothing about touching the spot, no beeps if i touch the screen

My PanelDue was working fine, then a spool fell off the spool holder and hit the back of it, now it only shows a white screen.

I tried erasing and reloading the firmware on it.

I have the 1.1 version on a 7 inch display.

any ideas on what to try?

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

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,

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

found it, going to give 8 a try

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

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

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

config has
M665 R135.59 L330.77 B135.59 H235.444
M666 X0 Y0 Z0

after calibration i got
M665 Diagonal 344.383, delta radius 138.954, homed height 235.472, bed radius 135.6, X -0.050°, Y -0.359°, Z 0.000°
M666 Endstop adjustments X-0.20 Y0.13 Z0.07, tilt X-0.23% Y0.22%

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

i thought it only went to 7

ok, cleared out my config override file and tried againl

things look better, but that height map still looks odd to me? am i getting into normal now or do i have something else going on?

Calibrated 6 factors using 17 points, deviation before 0.126 after 0.125

yes, its a Delta, that probably would have been good info to include in my original post, built using trick laser max metal frame.

M557 R125 S20

At one point when i was using fsr under beds i tried height corrections. Just looking at it i found that somehow i must have fat finged something in because one point had a 0.2 and one point had a 6 correction in it, all the rest where zero. fixed them all to zero and it changed it to this.

Calibrated 7 factors using 17 points, deviation before 0.686 after 0.224

so in the ball park of not good

Calibrated 7 factors using 17 points, deviation before 1.540 after 1.047

When i run the mesh bed compensation I get the above heightmap.

I know my bed does not actually look like that. I have even changed the bed and it give me the exact same thing, ive used both FSR underbed sensors and piezo in the hotend and they give the same result

Thus I would think its something with the machine itself, but I am not sure what it would be. I use a all metal frame from trick laser and everything appears to be square and set up right, but i could use some assistance in what this could mean and where to look for the problem.
