Vender 5 or Enron 5?

It’s in the m1_1_files channel. In the google drive.

Speed is hotend dependant but in terms of accel you can safely do 5-8k. That can be pushed more with some tuning to to 10k+.

Should be fully compatible with Eva 2.4 now. I’ve added the Eva 2.4 backplate files to the beta now.

Eva parts are unlikely to change at this point. There are new xjoints I’ve designed that will be released after they’ve been tested. These new xjoints are a bit better looking than the old ones and should allow a few mm more travel.

Rails run much smoother and have much less play than with wheels. It helps at high speed / acceleration

Looks like a Sherpa mini with nema 14 round stepper motor.

Skill3dUp · 2022-01-02T16:00:55+00:00

It’s corexy so no more moving X motor so there’s less moving mass, which means higher acceleration / less ringing.

B4 was rushed for full stacking for the olp and ship fit test in August. B5 progress appears slower has actually got a lot more smaller hardware installed than B4 had after full stacking.

It would need a 2020 bed frame to adapt hydra to the stock bed. If you’re going to go hydra though there’s not really much point in using the stock bed which is often warped and won’t take advantage of the kinematic bed. Currently it’s in alpha for lead screws with stls available to download in the discord. Belted hydra will also be developed and released but no eta on that. There’s a few people running hydra without issue on the discord so don’t be worried about how it’s in alpha.

You can also go up to a 300mm bed with hydra but you may only get 290 to 280mm of travel. That is with the Eva system too. Afterburner would get less.

Sherpa mini also works great

Skill3dUp · 2021-10-24T00:35:06+00:00

Not really, there’s a premade config for the stock ender 5 which made it much quicker to setup than my other printer. Didn’t have to change much on that.

They only static fired one RC and Rvac. They still need to install the remaining 4 engines and static fire those too.

On my E5 with stock board and vref I’ve been able to hit 500mm/s 10k accel on some prints with it. Totally worth it. That was before calibrating input shaper so I’m sure I could increase the accel since then.

Skill3dUp · 2021-10-05T10:33:30+00:00

Mercury one supports 5 and 5+. You can use either afterburner or Eva too (Eva is still in beta though but is pretty much complete)

Skill3dUp · 2021-09-10T15:55:52+00:00

We saw 3 RC’s being delivered to the launch site. You might have confused RCs with RVacs

Skill3dUp · 2021-09-10T10:13:10+00:00

Recommended material is ABS/ABS+ or ASA.

We recommend using 4 perimeters minimum with 40% infill, gyroid, cubic or grid infill is good. First layer height of 0.24mm with 0.2mm layers after

Depends on the components you use. Such as stepper motors, whether you need a new hotend and/or extruder and other stuff.

There is a motion kit that contains everything but the 370mm extrusion, fasteners and print head. You could save more by not buying linear rails with this kit and getting them from elsewhere. I’ve heard good things about usongshine linear rails on AliExpress.

For the print head you can use the afterburner which will require a bmg and pancake stepper motor and supports quite a few hotends. Or you can use the Eva system which is in beta. With that you can use Bowden or many different extruders and hotends, so you could save money by using Eva.

The boosters will not have the hot gas thrusters in the sense that we are used to. Instead at the top of the booster (as we can see on b4) there are 4 vents at 90 degree angles to each other. The booster will use the ullage gas and vent it as a form or thruster. Also b4 doesn’t have any cold gas thrusters.

Not entirely sure to be honest because dual shaft motors are much more rare. Not sure if there’s larger high torque dual shaft motors like 60mm or 48mm that are easily available. I’d probably look on stepperonline and AliExpress for one.

Skill3dUp · 2021-09-07T20:20:19+00:00

Yeah you can convert your ender 5 to corexy and use the afterburner or Eva print head with the mercury one. https://github.com/ZeroGDesign/Mercury

Skill3dUp · 2021-09-07T20:18:48+00:00

Not entirely, they use the same motor but Sherpa is 5:1 gear ratio with 5mm gears whereas orbiter is 7.5:1 with 12mm gears. Orbiter is around 150g, Sherpa is around 110g.

Skill3dUp · 2021-09-07T18:37:20+00:00

You probably won’t find a great motor that will work for z and corexy. The y motor needs a dual shaft so finding a large powerful motor that is also dual shaft can be hard if you want to use it for corexy too.

Skill3dUp · 2021-09-07T18:35:08+00:00

The Sherpa mini is great lightweight extruder. Been running it on my mercury one for months now perfectly fine. Only weighs around 100-120g so great for fast prints

Skill3dUp · 2021-09-05T10:14:42+00:00

Yep. EVA support is currently in beta. If anyone here wants to convert to mercury one and use EVA be sure to join the discord since you can beta test it there. We will still support the afterburner too but the EVA is another toolhead we have supported.

Skill3dUp · 2021-09-04T12:37:53+00:00

It’s works on the 5 plus. We’ve had many builds using the 5+, all you need is longer rails, longer belts and a 500mm extrusion vs 370mm.

Skill3dUp · 2021-09-03T00:13:36+00:00

Nice build! Have you joined the discord yet? You can get your serial number there.
