Learn how to install and optimize the Flex3drive G5 open source remote flex drive extruder on a Seckit SK-GO 3D printer in this comprehensive video tutorial. Explore the advantages of reducing print carriage mass by 161 grams and compare the performance of this hybrid system, which combines the lightweight properties of a Bowden tube with the control of a direct drive. Follow along with the assembly and installation process, and discover how this modification can potentially improve print quality, especially on printers prone to ringing. Gain insights into calibrating e-steps and other settings to maximize the extruder's performance. While results may be inconclusive pending further modifications, understand how this upgrade matches the factory setup and flexible filament performance of the Hemera extruder.
