Klipper on the Vertex Delta

Hi
is anyone running Klipper already on the vertex delta? I’m struggling with the config, most likely with the printer config.
The basics are already correctly configured, but I’m not printing yet :slight_smile:

this is what I have so far. I’ve never worked with firmware yet, but the Klipper documentation is really good. So I will get through it. Either way, I’ll share and push back to the project when it is working.

edit: display is already working and my first print was needs some more calibration but I’m getting there! :smile:

See docs/Config_Reference.md for a description of parameters.

I’ll definitly jump in when I’m finished with my FLSUN QQ-S.
