When I built my Vz330, after setting up the motors as specified in the docs under

VzBot 330 - Mellow Kit -> 6. Electronics -> 6.8 Mellow Fly Super 8 1.3 -> 5160 Motor Setup

my motor movements were off. Similar to a regular CoreXY if I had switched the motors around. After switching X<->Y and X1<->Y1, everything worked fine. This might be PEBKAC on my side, but if not, the picture of the motor layout would need to be flipped horizontally.

It's quite possible you're not the only person having this issue. I've heard of other people having this issue as well. It might be something to change in the documentation if this is indeed systematically being miswired.

Belt routing / motor designation

  • Clarify which motors are X/X1 and Y/Y1.
    The Vz235 docs have a diagram; rotate this 180° to get the Vz330 diagram.
  • Add a label to the diagrams what's front and back

5160 Stepper driver section

  • Split the stepper drivers into its own section.

  • Move picture showing Black, Green, Red and Blue wires to the 5160 Stepper Driver section

  • Move bridges between mainboard and 5160hv to the 5160 section / its future dedicated page

Motors:

  • Clarify that the stepper motor wires need ferrules
  • Clarify how to find A B C D, or which ones go to which phase (maybe link to Voron docs on finding the motor phases?)
    Black Green Red Blue, top to bottom. There's a picture showing this on the page, elsewhere
  • @DerDackel said:

    LDO has been fairly consistent. Red+Blue should be A, Green+Black should be B
