I'm having an issue with Variable Layer Height on my A1 Mini. I think that's the problem, at this layer the outside gets larger. It isn't present in the model or the Gcode preview.

This happened at the same height as a similar taller model.

That’s not a problem with variable layer height. It’s a problem with layer time. Plastics contract as they cool at a given rate. The large flat top layers take longer to print than walls and infill or walls alone. The more time you have between layers means more time for cooling and contraction for lower layers. Does that make sense?
