I don’t follow evolve activity but at some point you needed their BMS to use their ESC might not be the case anymore…maybe?

Ender 3 for $160, which is the lowest price I’ve ever seen/got one for.

I just purchased the ender 3 pro from Banggood for $182usd landed with sales tax. Also looking at the $160 ender extender to transform it into 400mm X 400mm printer. It was way cheaper than upgrading my 8 year old reprap to modern spec.

I wish I had one to compare to my ender 3. The 40mm y extrusion is the only difference that could affect print quality.
Keep us posted on the extender kit. Definitely looks promising.

Yes indeed, good sir. Was in Ventura County, but moved down to Canoga Park in my teens. Can I get a shout-out for Naugles Tacos?

this looks kinda like the shitty direct drive that I have. they tend to unscrew themselves after like 5 miles of use. the issue is a design failure. theres no screws on the motor can to stop of from unscrewing.

I have tried this before. one of the drives spins in the same direction as the threads. locktite isnt going to hold against the full torque of the motor trying to unscrew itself.

that still doesn’t explain the drive unscrewing itself thingy he’s talking about
they would still be either the gen1 or gen2 of elofty drive, it wasn’t discontinued, it was updated to “better” revision

discontinued as in flipsky stop selling them.
I cant imagine a 2nd gen product having such a horrible design flaw… must be gen1.

Nope Gen 1 were fine and gen2 had all kind of flaws (I have them) but with some care they are fine
