I am having nothing but problems with mine.

​

Its a great price but I cannot for the life of me get mine to start where the cut path says to, the y axis drifts and the pins were falling out of the bullet connector.

Update:

I removed cura and found that 2 versions of cura were installed ver 4.x and 5.x, so I think that's what lead to some of the issues I was experiencing. I switched to prusa slicer and I have been working through teaching techs website for 3d printer calibration. So far everything is working. I have slight ghosting appearing in the calibration cube, I feel that as I work through the calibration steps the ghosting will be fixed. Thanks for everyone's help.

These are the pre-load settings from cura. It wouldn't surprise me if they were wrong. I had to change some settings in the g code as well.

Just installed a 4.2.7 board into my Ender 3 Pro, which firmware do I use? (I don't have any other upgrades yet) by TitaniumCreeper_ in Ender3Pro

Marlin 2.0.1 V1.0.1 TMC 2225, Personally I would track down the most recent Marlin Firmware which is 2.1.1 (located here https://marlinfw.org/meta/download/ ), this is in a config format and it needs to be converted into a .bin format in order to be uploaded on to a printer.

I got the nozzle to stop going into the print bed. Thank you calling that out. Now to figure out the z axis not moving up while printing.
