Qidi Tech 1 - Replicator 1 clone

[Colorado CJ]

So guys,

I just bought Simplify 3D. What is the best printer to specify for our Qidi Printers in the Simplify 3D options?

Thanks!

I started with the FlashForge Creator Pro profile and made changes from there.

They say the Rep 1 dual and is what I used while testing.

I used Flashforge Creator Pro also

I also used the Flashforge Creator Pro profile that I downloaded here and then modified per my needs - https://github.com/djecken/Printer-P.../flash%20forge

This prior post explains why it seems like they are setup for "ninjaflex" only from the start - http://3dprintboard.com/showthread.p...ll=1#post87650

Who is "they" and forgive me for asking if this is a stupid question, but isn't the title of the thread "Replicator 2 Clone" which would make me think that selecting the "Replicator 1" profile is not accurate?

Actually it is a Replicator 1 Dual Clone the guy that started this thread got it wrong.
When upgrading Sailfish from RepG you should choose Replicator 1 Dual.
The Makerbot Replicator 1 Dual was Makerbots last opensource machine.
If it was a Replicator 2 Clone Qidi Tech, CTC, Flashforge and other clone makers would be in violation of Makerbots patents.

I used Flashforge Creator Pro as my S3D default since it's the most current interpretation of a Replicator 1 Dual.

Thanks for the full explanation, I can't believe I was under the impression this was a Replicator 2 Clone until today.

I'm guessing it's not possible to have the thread renamed?

Does make it confusing because I sure know I was confused until "they" mentioned. As far as who "they" are well....lol...seriously "they" are various people in various google groups I found as I was searching around for as much info as I could get before I purchased the machine.

Thanks for clarifying, it's sometimes tough to know where references come from.

Interesting, what humidity are you experiencing? Based on my sensors, the humidity in the enclosed space is consistently 15-17% while printing and 42-48% when normalized.

This is while printing ABS with a 110c build plate and 230c extruder.

Typical in case humidity during ABS print for me is 36-42%.
I live in south Texas, right on the coast. Can literally walk to gulf of mexico from my house in about 3min.
I have a plan to deal with it, but it's kinda an expensive plan, so its little bit at a time ya.
