Thank you very much for the response. I think I found the culprit after probing around on the board a bit with a multi-meter. R37 wasn’t mounted very good I’ll post a picture when I get the chance thus not reading anywhere close to the correct resistance across the pads. I’ll post a picture when I get the chance.
I removed it, cleaned up the pads, and re-soldered it. Ran tests with the belts still removed and the motor ran just like the others – nice and smooth. So, I’m hoping that was it.
As of right now I’m getting pretty jittery motion, as in a lot of vibration, while running the sample Chilipeppr logo test. Seems to still be the y-axis, but might also be the X axis as well. When the machine does straight/fast moves along either axis everything is smooth with no vibration, however on shorter moves, or when I hold down the left/right & up/down arrow keys on my keyboard while using the jog widget in chilipepper, as well as running the test gcode file i’m getting quite a bit of vibration.
So, I’m going to play around with settings as outlined in the Tuning section of the Wiki. I’ll follow up. Hopefully I can manage to get things moving nice and smoothly by doing that.
Again, thank you very much for taking the time to respond.
