  • The Bigtreetech SKR mini E3 is a plug and play 32 bit mainboard for the Creality Ender 3, Ender 5 and CR-10. It is very popular because it is affordable and capable. In this third iteration, many of the bugs have been ironed out and a strong focus on reliability has been added.
    In this video I explain the changes in the new version, cover installation, compiling firmware, BLtouch, EEPROM, filament runout, Neopixels, TFT35 touch screen, BTT wifi and sensorless homing. Thanks to the great work by the Marlin devs and Bigtreetech, most of these are quite easy to set up.
    This board should be more reliable and offers slightly more refinement due to the automatic control of the electronics fan. I’ve never had any overheating with my previous SKR mini boards, but if you have, this updated version may be the answer. This is far superior to the Creality silent board because it is cheaper, has newer TMC2209s connected in UART (linear advance friendly), is 32 bit and has much more IO options.
    Tip from viewer Dale for helping this board connect easily to Octoprint when using a BTT TFT as well. Add this line to the "Additional Serial Ports" in settings: /dev/serial/by-id/usb-LeafLabs_Maple-if00
    This board was supplied free of charge by Bigtreetech for the purposes of making this guide. All opinions expressed are my own.

      Kyle, I found this on the listing on Amazon.US for this board
      2)Because the fan on the SKR Mini E3 V2.0 control board is a CNC fan, you need to set the wind speed before using it. (Note: V2.0 version of the fan is not ready to use after power on)
      This looks like BS to me as I can't find any documentation online to support this claim, I did however find issues of people receiving boards with faulty MOSFET's and think this could be some type of getting out for the retailer trying to make people think they have done something wrong with their board,
      My board worked fine out of the box

      My son chose to buy the Ender 3 Pro in August based on channels like this and the comments from owners. We've had a straight forward climb from build to very high quality prints in multiple filament types and never looked back. I'm extremely grateful to this channel and the comments from users about their experiences and ideas. There is no way the journey would be as easy as it has been without all of you. Yes it's a bunch of work, careful watching and reading etc, but still no big issues of any sort, and the print quality,,, wow. We upgraded during the build process ( extruder, bed springs,and wheels etc ) , I can't say enough about the value of the learning process , maintenance details and understanding the role of each component that this channel has provided. We use Solidworks to design, those drawings are done very differently had we not had the overall printing experience the Ender ( any good printer ) has provided. It forced us to do small upgrades incrementally and really understand printer setup and tuning adjustment. Best Wishes to all who contribute and Thank You !!

    I have a stock Ender 3 Pro. I didn't know it could be upgraded with sensor-less homing, wi-fi or a touchscreen! This video is awesome. I will definitely be looking for the upgrade parts per your recommendations. I'm just as excited to modify the printer as using it to make 3D prints. I really enjoy my Ender 3 Pro and I'm a complete newbie to this hobby (that's what it is for me at the moment). But, I really like designing my own parts to fix things around my home and simply trying out new ideas. I have a sincere trust in your information because you demonstrate how thorough you are and that's incredibly important to me. After I watch your videos, I don't have to guess at what choice to make. I simply have to decide where to buy from. Thanks for your continued efforts on the Ender 3 Pro and please continue to educate those of us looking to learn more about the printer itself and printing techniques, tips, etc. Thank you.

    I recently bought an Ender 3 (my first 3D Pinter) and was looking for ways to upgrade it. I started watching your videos while researching printers. Once I got it and started printing, I knew I wanted to quiet it down. So I got the SKR Mini E3 v2.0 and TFT35 E3 V3.0 and installed them. Holy shiznit! It’s so much quieter. The touch screen feels like it belongs in this century. Now I’m looking forward to add a BLtouch and filament run out sensor.
    I just wanted to let you know that your videos have been helpful and informative as I venture into this new hobby. So, thank you and keep making great videos. :)

    Michael, just wanted to throw you a thanks your way for this. I purchased this off of Amazon for a new printer. Didn't even assemble the new printer before I replaced the stock card with the E3 v2.0. After some basic calibration it's working so much better than the stock card that I'm going to replace the older printer's motherboard as soon as I can. I used the firmware that came on it and the next step is an upgrade to support BLTouch as soon as the mount is done printing. Love your work, keep it up.

    I bought the mini E3 largely because of your video, and I was blown away by how much better the printer performed with it compared to the stock board, particularly regarding noise. I've recommended it to a couple friends as the first upgrade they should buy for their printer, and they've been happy with it as well. Through my journey in printing I've watched your videos, so thank you for helping educate me and many others in the community. I started looking deeper into duet boards a week or two before your video on them, and they seem quite promising and offer several things that marlin doesn't have yet; it would be interesting to see how using a duet in an ender 3 impacted performance and usability. Happy Printing!

    I've just upgraded my Ender 3 pro to the SKR min V2.0. Only 2 small issues when using octoprint. I didn't get any comms via the USB port, I'm using a pi 4 and the USB operation has changed. Evidently you need to add "over_voltage=1" to /boot/config.txt of the pi, I had no issues with the stock ender board and the pi so it must be different on the SKR card.
    Secondly, something I was going to get around to on the previous board but didn't was to put a slither of polyamide/kapton tape on the +5v contact on the USB cable so the pi is not powering the main board. I had false overheat protection alarms from the printer if you turn the main power off on the printer with the nozzle still hot. I didn't get that with the previous board so assume overheat protection wasn't enabled although the version of firmware supported it, it was the stock Ender firmware. I believe thre are other issues around powering the board form the pi, here's a good reference github.com/bigtreetech/BIGTREETECH-SKR-mini-E3/issues/41

    Just installed the v2 in my ender 3 pro and I'm pretty happy aside from two issues. 1: clicking Stop Print does not immediately stop the print. I have no idea why but there is often a delay between 10 and 30 sec before the print stops and while I don't use this much, when I want to stop a print, I want it stopped NOW! 2: It may be the lack of motor sound but now the other fans sound SUPER loud. This second one is less a serious issue but any ideas on #1 would be greatly appreciated. Love the channel.

    4:29 - Just a heads up that at least on an original CR-10, "B" in your diagram is backwards. I don't know if the polarity is reversed on the SKR board or on the bed heater relay. Either way, after getting a bed heating error I swapped the red and black and it now works fine.

      After you installed the board in the CR10 did you have to compile new marlin firmware, or did it work out the box?

    • @ttocsmann
      @ttocsmann Před 3 lety

      @@chrisstock5210 Yes. I had never taken the time to understand all of the Marlin firmware so it was a good exercise. There's a reddit post on building the firmware for Ender which I followed but started with the generic Marlin Example Config for Cr-10 and retained all the CR-10-specific items, mostly bed size/dimension related config.

    Something to keep in mind: I'm pretty sure there are 2 versions of this board, one having an RCT6 labeled on the processor and another with RET6. I believe the latter is associated with a 512k onboard flash rather than the 256k flash found on the RCT6 model. I'm not sure, but it looks like the build environment he is using in the video would work for the 512k variant, but maybe not the other? Someone let me know as I am a little worried with choosing which one when compiling.

    I ordered this the same day I ordered my Ender 3 Pro. I like the board - much quieter than the OEM part, more features, etc. I installed a bltouch v3.1 and wanted to keep my z endstop, so I tried to use the probe ports as indicated in the manual (the "1st way" as indicated in the video). This never worked with the BTT-compiled firmware or my own custom Marlin build: the probe would self-test, deploy/retract, but WOULD NOT TRIGGER at all. I checked, re-checked, and checked the wiring again - it was all correct. I plugged the probe wires into the z endstop pins, et voila! it worked. YMMV.

    • @oriongaby
      @oriongaby Před 4 lety +1

      This has always been kind of a problem with every BTT board that has both a Z-endstop and a Probe pin. I can't remember the details correctly but the way the firmware is written you needed to do some hacky changes to the code to make it work the way you want. I think there have been attempts at introducing config settings to change the behavior but I'm not sure what's the current status since my printer has been down for a couple months.
