Has anyone done an accurate calibration of the Eclips3D? What values did you use for your bot X, Y, Z and E ? My 20mm test cube is running a little on the big size especially on height. My 110mm test object came out 111.1mm in both x and y..

So, Followup. I started looking around for guides for calibrating a CoreXY and info is kinda scarce. I found some conflicting information, but several people said to not screw around and just use the calculated values they should work. I plugged in the values from the Prusa Calculator and came up with a value of 160 steps. currently "alpha_steps_per_mm" and "beta_steps_per_mm" are set to 161.6 I changed both values to 160 and my Test object now measures almost perfect! I'm going to check the extruder and leadscrew next....

I have no idea where the 161.6 came from...but I'll do some testing and update the config files on my website after this is confirmed. Lead screw should be correct at 400, extruder may need tweaking and its a good idea for each person to calibrate the value themselves since the steps/mm will depend on how far the extruder teeth dig into the filament.
