  • Look on github for Rappetor’s SV08 mainline repository. You’ll need a new mmc or sd card (both are ok) and a “five bucks” STLink programmer, but then it is quite easy to put mainline klipper on your sv08. The mainboard is a cb1 clone with the “main” ST microcontroller for driving the steppers on the same board (for cost reduction, probably)

    That’s the prerequisite for using a probe. like a btt eddy on a SV08, for example.

    Other than the SV08 has a few issues like super noisy board fan which can be very easily be taken care of. (Funnily software control of the fan is possible, but just not done in the default firmware)

    My mods are mainline klipper, btt eddy, new (printed) extruder shroud with better airflow, a microswiss hotend and a second camera (USB webcam for second viewing angle and better resolution).

    Out of the box the SV08 has a bit of problems keeping a consistent Z offset due to missing temperature calibration for the probe. More reliable solutions (ported from voron) like klicky are available. I chose eddy - but haven’t perfectly tuned it in, either. I’ll try the eddy-ng firmware (github) next week.
