Just pulled the trigger on this for 700$

Did I do alright? Could someone point me in the right direction for a beginner with this machine?

What's causing this distortion?

Beginner CNCer here (shapeoko pro XXL) but long time woodworker. I'm using vcarve pro, exporting toolpaths to carbide motion ATC, using very conservative feeds and speeds. This is a simple v-carve path of a text with single line font.

What checks and tests can I run to narrow down the cause?
