NEW M3D Promega
Has anyone looked into the newly releasing M3D Promega? It's available right now for less than $1200 and will retail for $3500. Thoughts?

looks good - but if it's 'overengineered' why is it only using nema 14 motors ?
Anyone ever bought a micro+ ?
The original micros had a fair few issues and wouldn't encourage me to buy from the company. Just wondered if the + sorted most of the problems out.
At $3500 with a lot of the cool stuff being extra, it's not competitively priced.
Please explain to me how to...
