Hey everyone,

Perhaps I’m just needing a nudge to get out of decision paralysis. I had a toolhead breakdown due to a hardware failure and decided to rebuild as a A4T V2 because why not? I wanted to upgrade from the old Afterburner anyway at some time so now might be perfect!

But now I have to choose … Orbiter 2.5 and Sherpa Mini are the options supported from the get-go. But for either I found “for sure that one!” voices.

For the hotend l go with the rapido X.

Or do I even go with a different toolhead all together?

I can’t simply print a stealthburner anyway because the backup printer I have available only has a print area of 115x115 so I couldn’t make the front plate fit anyway. And I really don’t feel like printing a new.

Any voice of reason, experience or opinion is very welcome - I literally just need to stop staring at websites and … Decide.

    Thanks!

    The V2 only supports those two as of now sadly. But perhaps waiting a bit till others are supported would be yet another option :D

    Or going with V1? But … V2 is new, shiny and experimental!

      The v1 is so freaking good that I have full faith v2 is worth going for. Unfortunately I don’t have any experience with either of the extruders it supports, but if I were picking one I’d go Orbiter.
