[@macjoe4448]

I have two N4P.... had them for about 3 months now... and I must say NOT ONE MISSPRINT YET... so cool!!!!!

[@MiguelFlores-mx9cz]

I honestly wish I witnessed this live I don’t even 3d print but I am excited to get into the field

[@NaughtyGoatFarm]

I loved my Elegoo neptune 4 pro. I wish elegoo would enter the core xy enclosed market and make a competitor to the Creality k1 max.

[@glenns5140]

Hey mate, so after having the neptune 4 for a couple of month's, would you suggest the max 4 over the max 3?

[@steveshepard]

Very timely. Supposed to get mine next week! Thanks for the detailed stream upload. I have moderate anxiety about the homing issue now

[@DroidZombie]

Just got the Neptune 4 MAX, but I think I might need to do the firmware update but can't find anything on Elegoo's site. I set it up and am having prints that "slip".... not slide off the bed, but throughout the print, the print's layers begin to be off-center. Feels like whenever the bed does a rapid travel movement, it does not return the exact location it should and the print is slightly off.

[@MandicReally]

They sent me the firmware via email. I've submitted a list of issues they need to address & that is one of them (Firmware release). The other thing sounds like "Layer Shifting" it is a common issue when you are pushing a machine too hard. Check your belts for tightness. If they are loose the pulley can skip a tooth and cause that issue. Or it could be relative to the print you are doing. If it is hitting the print while moving that can cause layer shifting. Or it may just be printing too darn fast. Using the Elegoo slicer profile?

[@DroidZombie]

​@@MandicReally All good points. It feels like it is being pushed hard, but I'm using Elegoo's slicer, Belts are relatively tight (I have 2 other printers so i'm familiar with where they should be), running the print on Normal mode (not sport) but did let it run on silent as well (which seems to slow it down some). Feels like, maybe a little to aggressive for the size and weight of this bed. But it feels weird to have to manually tune down preset travel speeds to fix an issue. The travel speed is bonkers fast, I have two Prusa's and just not use to seeing that kind of speed. I'll email Elegoo for the firmware update :) Can you provide which version they updated you to?

[@milesgti]

Mine just showed up on my doorstep. Can't wait to get home and get into it.

[@MandicReally]

Rad. Elegoo authorized me to release the firmware they provided so I put it on GitHub: github.com/MandicReally/Elegoo_Neptune_4_Max

[@Voidmonster]

@@MandicReally Thank you for this! I was having terrible problems getting my printer to work because the z-offset kept drifting. This firmware seems to fix that. Now the steppers are really buzzy at some speeds, but I'll take that plus good prints every time over quiet motors and needing to calibrate *every single first layer*.

[@rustyv6274]

Congratulations on the wedding 🎉

[@aaronbaker1131]

I would really like to see the difference with aux part cooling vs without

[@StevesDIYProjects7]

just bought my max 4 today :)

[@tonybarnes9208]

How long did you wait after ordering before you got it?

[@MandicReally]

I did not order, this was sent to me by Elegoo. I know folks who ordered that have waited about 4-5 weeks.

[@tonybarnes9208]

Thanks. Service is improving. Ordered mine on 18th October. Being delivered today. Awesome! Can't wait to set it up.@@MandicReally

[@StevesDIYProjects7]

and bruh as soon as you can find this nozzle in 0.8mm please let us know LOL> I'm new to your channel but watching back some vids and a few times lol. i almost got the 3 max. but then saw last min the 4 max. lol i have wanted to print nylon for a long time. to make parts on the fly. and other things that will last long term.

[@emilcost8613]

Someone help me out here. I'm having trouble believing that extruders and hot ends can push out a cubed inch of melted plastic per second. This is ALOT of plastic in a second. Am I understanding this correctly? Thanks guys!

[@MandicReally]

The math is off in how you are thinking about it. Yes, 25.4mm is 1 Inch, but 25.4mm3/s is NOT 1" 3/s. It is actually 0.00152559 Inch 3/s. At least to the best of my understanding. 25mm3/s works out to a cube that is 2.925mm on all sides. (2.925 x 2.925 x 2.925mm

[@emilcost8613]

Thank you! This clears it up for me.... thanks for your reply. I was scratching my head on this one.@@MandicReally

[@emilcost8613]

It's the cubed root of 25! Makes perfect sense to me now. Thanks again Mandic. I love the long build and test streams. Very relaxing.@@MandicReally

[@alijah1539]

With the Neptune 4pro I had to badger them for the latest firmware

[@alijah1539]

It's very annoying that my Neptune 2S came perfect from the factory no need to update firmware or anything. Then the 3 I had to to spend alittle bit of time troubleshooting Y axis issues and I needed to update firmware. Then with the 4pro It came unusable the same as yours did and If I was a newbie I wouldn't have been able to figure out the problem was the firmware and not hardware or user error.

[@parzival5884]

he said not the sugar stuff lol but drinking a monster lmfao right shit is full of sugar worse than drinking a beer

[@MandicReally]

Sugar Free Monster…

[@grimusvoorhees1]

where exists this firmware you speak of

[@MandicReally]

It was supplied to me by Elegoo. I’ll see about putting it on GitHub as it seems they are behind on releasing it now that folks are getting machines they ordered.

[@milesgti]

@@MandicReally Is this available now.? Seeing issues with certain verisons on discord. What are you recommending at this point? Thanks for the vid!

[@3DPrintRD]

I have mine everything perfect

[@MandicReally]

Glad to hear it. 👌🏻👌🏻

[@3dpathfinder]

They reduced the Z due to the Fan i believe.

[@3dpathfinder]

Ive you need to pay it forward some printer , a noobie content creator like myself would love to help lol , Then down the road I will be able to do the same.

[@rustyv6274]

Crap you’re a day late! I just put mine together yesterday and could have used a guild that direction book was crap

[@3dpathfinder]

Build you a recycler for all your waste .

[@CellarNerd]

First world problems are also problems, okay? 😂

[@dack4545]

Don't home it first Bro do a bed level let it find Z with its first Probe the bed run 👍🇦🇺

[@MandicReally]

You know the first step of bed level is it homes X/Y right? The reason Z was crashing is that Y was so far forward when it wouldn’t home that the Z probe was off the bed. So Z homing couldn’t work. Correcting X/Y homing HAD to happen before anything else could.

[@bobsellers750]

After seeing the first 2 minutes was entirely wasted on absolutely nothing, I noticed this goes on for 3.5 hours! Seriously? You may have 3-1/2 hours to waste on something that could have been covered in less than 1/10th the time; I sure don't.

[@MandicReally]

... It is a live stream. They are for folks who want to hang out or those who like to just let them play as background noise afterward. I have dozens upon dozens of "1/10th the time" videos you can check out. All of which take a LOT more than 3 hours to create.

[@JohnMiguelStudios]

Well hey buddy, the man released a video to help people like us figure it out and it was a livestream, you can go watch another video nobody is forcing you to watch this. The man was livestreaming and conversing with his followers so quit complaining and move on. Get over yourself, jerk. To the video creator: I think the video was great. Thanks for the assistance and a fun video. Note: Ignore this pansy, some princesses whine when they don't get exactly what they want. You're doing good chief.

[@redherring5532]

But you're here for it all day long too. Just choose to be a prick. Nice job
