Hey everyone,

I just grabbed an AnyCubic 4Max Pro for insanely cheap. I had to swap out the hot end, it was bent. It seems the last owner had the Z limit switch incorrectly set so it was crashing.

So far it’s printing fairly well. I need to do all the calibration and such, but for ‘out of the box’ it seems to be alright.

I’ve been reading up on the hardware itself and it seems to be fairly crippled due to the board AnyCubic used. An 8 bit board based on the Arduino Mega. I’ve see lots of pre-conpiled firmware for Marlin 2.0.x but they’re usually filled with even more bugs than they solved. The board is called TriGorilla? Honestly I’m use to BTT and Crealitys boards.

Has anyone done a board swap on this? I saw the LCD is a hack job by AnyCubic since Marlin, maybe at the time?, Didn’t support DWIN touch screens. I’d like to keep the stepper drivers, so maybe a board that has removable?

Thanks Henry
