I trust my ad5x more than my creator 5. And only trust it a little more than my 5m pro

So I added the creator 5 to my ad5x and My 2 5 m Pros and not only is the creator five the slowest of them all out of the box so you can turn it to ultra speed, but it’s really slow out of the box but I also don’t trust it to finish a print without checking on it like I feel if I start a print, I better come down and make sure that it’s good because there’s a higher chance of failure than my ad5x or even 5m pro
I don’t know if I don’t have the settings dialed in yet, but the 85X is the fastest of the three of them the creator five has been kind of a disappointment. I’m gonna be honest maybe I’m not using it to its full potential but I’m really not impressed.

Creator 5 help

IfOK, you have to be joking that this damn creator 5 level 64 fucking times before it starts to print my ADX five right next to it was halfway through with the print and the creator five was still leveling. How do you turn this off? It’s so annoying.

And don’t tell me this is the default because I don’t care if it’s zero purge if it takes an hour to start a print I will send this bitch back tomorrow if I can’t fix it

I have the flashforge trifecta now

New to 3-D printing about six months didn’t know I would enjoy it so much didn’t know I would make so many things didn’t know I would pick up CAD as easy as I did. I’m loving it and I’m stepping up my game constantly. I started with one adventure 5M Pro I took a part a couple screws and I was making stuff in 30 minutes then I went to the ADX I initially ordered two but once I got it out, I didn’t like how much it purged to multi print so you have to really be clever to multi print on it or are you gonna waste a lot and then the creator 5 just intrigued me so I went ahead and splurged on it. I make so much stuff now I’m thinking about starting a little tacky things website to see who wants to buy my plastic ideas. 😅 i’m moving up to fusion 360 from Tinker CAD so it’s getting ready to get real. Can’t wait to show you guys what I come up with.

Flash Forge adventure 5m pro help please!

Hey guys, I have a 5M Pro from flash Forge. It was working just fine until about a week ago when I had a pet G print got tangled and when I came, the thing was printing in mid air for maybe like an hour so I had to take it apart and clear that I put it back together with all the pieces and now it extrudes just fine but when it goes to print, unless I am pushing the filament through, it will not put it on the build plate after that first swipe it does on the front. It’s like it doesn’t have enough power to pull it through
. I’ve changed the nozzle. I’ve changed the flow rate. I’ve checked the calibration. I’ve used glue and I have also played with tension screw on the side. None of this has worked. I’m getting ready to order another one and put this bitch in the box and send it back because it only worked for two months

But before that I was gonna see if anyone in the community
