Hello, please tell me some video tutorial on how to install Marlin on Voxelab Aquila

[JoeWayne]

Springs and a BL touch save yourself the headaches it makes it work great it’s not hard at all to install the Bltouch and firmware
And the Alex Firmware is SO much better than the stock firmware it’s not even close

Good video for just starting out info. I've had mine a while but still enjoy seeing how others have improved their own machine. I tried the rubber spacers instead of springs and they were crap. Too stiff so you couldn't adjust the bed more than a mm.

The problem with the Aquila is the H32 chip is not open source. There is no Marlin firmware support and the Voxelab firmware has limitations and bugs.

will the springs work for A voxelab aquila C2, It is my fist printer and don't really know what to upgade

those metal leveling wheels look nice but they are way heavier than the factory leveling wheel an for a printer that has a bed that moves on the y axis the factory would be better cause the weight can cause ghosting in prints. they work fine on printers like a ender 5 cause the bed doesn't move on the y axis but rather drops on the z so its not moving, so all the x an y motion is done by the hotend an the bed drops on the z while on something like a ender 3 or the aquila, the hotend moves on the x an z axis while the bed moves in the y. the more weight of moving parts the lower u have to have ur acceleration an jerk settings. thought id share what ive learned over the yrs. the leveling wheels dont cause an issue with printers like the ender 5 tronxy x5sa. also id compare the aqulia to a ender 3 v2 instead of the pro.

Bout to pull the trigger on my first 3D printer and I’m stuck between the voxelab aquilla x2$199 and the ender 3 v1$189 which one should I go with?

[scaramonga]

No, it's equivalent to Ender 3 V2, not Pro ;) But I agree, springs and extruder (as they break easily), although Voxelab have now strengthened the arm on newer models now, but I'd still replace, as they are cheap enough :) 4 clips on bed, instead of 2, gives much more better bed levelling also ;) A supreme printer for the cost though.

DO NOT DO THIS UPGRADE!!!The Ender Spring are longer then the Voxelab's making it hard to get the be low enough after install, also the Voxelab firmware the micro USB slot is clocked to slow and causes lags with Octoprit
