  • Did you change the e-steps at all before trying to extruder or are you still using the setting from the old extruder? With the setting for the old extruder the gear reduction on the Sprite might make the filament not look like it’s even when the stepper is turning.

    I just installed an orbiter on one of my ender 3s and the first test i still had my e-steps set on the marlin default and I’m not sure the filament moved at all.





  • My default response is BTT E3 mini v3.0 but since you’re looking to add more steppers something like a BTT Manta might be the way to go. Another option with Klipper is you can use multiple boards, I’ve only looked into this but you can use something like the E3 mini running Kilpper and then use the stock creality board to run up to 4 other steppers plus whatever. You’re going to need a system running Linux for Klipper either a raspberry pi, a VM, or just a cheap PC you’re not using.
