Chhogori (K2) - Release 2.1

Changes from Release 2.0.1 - Mechanical:

• Move to standardize on a 12mm belt (2mm pitch) throughout the machine, while still offering 15mm support as a legacy option (laser cut metal only supported).
• 20 or 40:1 option on the z drive, depending on builders "wants and needs", worm powered
• add support for Nitram's VolcoMosquito hotend
• add official support for Mosquito Magnum+ hotend
• replace squashball feet with a "audio amplifier" type foot

Changes from Release 2.0.1 - Electrical/Software:

• update klipper configurations to reflect mechanical changes and latest release changes (macros, etc)
• remove legacy configurations

Chhogori (K2) - Summit Edition - Release 2.0.1

Changes from Release 2 - Mechanical:

• move ballscrew z and planetary z to deprecated (planetary z may return if encoder support is added to klipper)
• all z drives are now 4 belts only, with 60:1 worm drive

Chhogori (K2) - Summit Edition - Release 2.0

Chhogori (K2) - Summit Edition: is a Medium Format, Direct Drive, Fully Enclosed FDM Printer.

Changes from Release 2 - RC3 - Mechanical:

• addition of ascender support

Chhogori (K2) - Summit Edition - Release 2.0 - Release Candidate 2

Changes from Release 2 - RC1 - Mechanical:

• add 60:1 worm drive gearbox to z drive, this is the recommended z setup for new builds
• stiffen up toolhead for better performance at 12k+ acceleration rates
• add better cable management to toolhead
• add better umbilical management to toolhead

Changes from Release 2 - RC1 - Electrical/Software:

• update ideamaker profile

Notes:

• Ascender toolhead coming soon
• All future releases will deprecate the usage of the SKR platform, we, as a whole believe there are better and safer controllers out there, and will not be providing any future updates or recommending the usage of these controllers on our platforms in the future
• M3 heatset inserts have been sized to use the Chinese variants across the entire machine (4.8mm holes), as this was a popular request.
