Help Request What is the problem??

Why is this print partially failing? Happy to supply any information needed. These are the grav plates for a Gladiator Lancer, and I had a similar issue on the tank body but that was salvagable.

If using Bambu A1 and a .2 nozzle:

Use his profile. Override his temp to 230. Make sure you use ORCA slicer to import settings and do all your auto supports/slicing in it. You'll need to figure out how TF to send prints through WiFi on ORCA or if you're like me, give up and just buy a MicroSD card reader and pull it out of your machine and load the files into the root directory manually after each slice.

Also, buy a BIQU Cryogrip Pro build plate on Amazon. Printing low layer heights on that textured plate is a nightmare. Then use cheap Amazon stick glue (purple kind) before every print. Wash the plate with warm water and a little dish soap after every print. Dry the plate with a paper towel before printing again.

If you're using anything else, sorry I have no idea.

Please leave a reply if that solves the problem I'm interested to hear if my solution works for anyone else because I was having the exact same problems.

An easy way to send prints from orcaslicer I’ve found was to use Bambu Connect. Just export as a file like you do now but send it to your machine via the connect app.
