Qidi Tech 1 - Replicator 1 clone

Well, the filament I happen to have loaded is from Solutech, which I have to say, seems to suck hard. I've had very bad luck with it. I've got a different silver I Can try.

For everything PLA on the glass I've been using a glue stick with almost 100% success.

Is 110 too hot for the glue stick, perhaps?

As a side note I am having a bad time with solutech PLA. Seems very inconsistent in size.

It's been good for me, it sucks if it's inconsistent. I am getting ready to buy some more filaments.
I've been looking forward to printing again.

Hi guys, I recently got into 3d printing and the QIDI Tech 1 is my first printer. I had initial success with my first print but now it's all gone to hell; it looks like the printer is putting down successive layers at an offset instead of directly on top of the previous layer. It continues that pattern until it extrudes off the plate. Any ideas how to fix this?

This happened both with files that I sliced (using Makerware) and with the test file that QIDI support sent me. I'm printing HIPS/ABS, 250C/230C/110C bed temp. I factory reset the printer and it still happened.

Here's a pic of the test file print; I stopped the print after it started extruding off plate.
