    I still have my Artillery Sidewinder X1 and print on it every single day but the prints take FOREVER to finish compared to these newer printers now so I have been looking for options to upgrade to. I looked at Artillery's newest printers and thought the X4 plus would be a great reason for me to upgrade. Before the release of the X4 plus I messaged artillery to see if they had retailers in Canada so I could buy the printer; the response I got was "there will be high shipping costs if it's shipped from China warehouse so no, and also no we don't have Canada dealers". After hearing so many complaints with there quality control and customer service and that response I got I think I will be staying far away from artillery now and looking for better options. Thanks for the video Frank! Love from Canada

      try to upgrade to klipper, its not that dificult, I have an Artilllery Hornet with klipper with a cht nozzle and man it has been a really good improvement and I have cut times by more than 50%. Give it a try, its a really capable printer the x1

      The sidewinder x2 was the worst printer I've ever owned. I spent more keeping it running than what I purchased it for. Gave sovol a try and now have 2, sv05 and sv06+. A Sv06+ with klipper pad is the way to go.

    @Frankly Built I bought this 3 weeks ago couldnt get a print for nothing i would get the first layer good then the second layer would dig into the first layer. I played and played with the z offset and just couldnt get it to stop. Finally last night i got to thinking it was like something was preventing it from traveling up on the z properly. Checked the POM wheels on the Z and they was super tight. I am currently printing my first print with them adjusted and let me tell you so far its printing beautiful. So if you get one and have this issue check the POM wheels.

  • @mastalock
    @mastalock Před 2 měsíci +2

    I updated the firmware on my Neptune 4 Max as soon as I got it (around xmas) and it still gave me issues. Firmware fixed the grinding home, but I still got blobs of death and eventually something temp related broke. Took replacement cable Elegoo sent (in 3 weeks),and alot of work, to fix. My 3 plus has been so much more reliable. But the 4 spits out stuff much faster and higher quality (when it works)

      Definitely buy one of the new Elegoo Neptune 4s. Relatively Modern, super simple to get into, can costumize once you get good, and possibly one of the most "buck for value" overall printers in the market. Will take a solid year or two, to see an equivalent printer.
      Modt printers currently on the market are pretty good, will be hard to buy trash as long as it came out the last year or so.

    Hmm definitely a shame to hear as my first printer was the X1 since roughly 2019ish (don’t remember the exact year and have a slight bias to it just because it’s my first lol) and have only recently this past month been able to finally print how I’ve been wanting to print as I would put off the hobby due to errors either I myself caused because I didn’t know something or even if I was following letters to the letter my printer still couldn’t print a dang thing, so to hear this most recent model is a bit of a let down is sad but I guess there’s plenty of fish in the 3D printer sea 😅

    the problem I have with the Neptune 4's is they Vibrate their parts like a Harley!!! 😶😬😐😐 and also like a Harley be prepared to do routine tightening and adjusting parts!! especially on the Max and Plus!! also adjust the Gantry right off make sure it's level out the box, and check every or every other week.. also on the Max it's bed needs to heat up for a half hour!! the PUS is under powered for this slinger causing it to struggle heating in fast or uniformly so mesh is changing on the bed while heating up taking a 25-30min to uniform the temps across the build plate..! Thank Daddy God the Plus don't have this issue!!!
