In depth look at whats available for extruders, build types and installs.
lots of information and research to help guide you through the buy or build

This info from mahor design

Firmware configuration

Thermistor

#define TEMP_SENSOR_0 1

Steps per millimeter of the motor (1/16 recommended)

#define DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER_UNIT {  80, 80, 400, 305}

G-code command: M92 E305

^ Home ^

PID calibration

Autotune command via Pronterface or Repetier

G-code command: M303 E0 S200

#define DEFAULT_Kp 39.24

#define DEFAULT_Ki 5.38

The extruder from high temp is different, it has a different screw and barrel so this info is for referance only to establish a working setup, once established I will post
