I have a newly assembled Delta Rostock mini G2s pro DIY kit with auto-leveling with auto leveling. I have it hooked onto a mac. The bed is level. I have communication and control through repetier and am able to control it. It will auto home to the upmost position but when it tries to print it drives itself into the bed. what setting do I need to alter to stop this? I would like to use Cura with it, what are the settings I would need for it to function properly?

I have not used a Delta printer, but are any of the motors clicking (like from under voltage)? What happens if you auto level it, tell it to move to 100-300mm, then tell it to move back? Is it still level to the bed? My only other guess would be if you were using an induction probe and a heated bed, I know the probes see different distances at different temperatures, maybe try auto leveling after the bed is heated. Good luck. Sorry I don’t know more about the subject.

There is a google+ group that you can join with people that are building Rostock Deltas. The Group says it is for Geeetech printers but they are all basically the same.
Here is the link:

If the link doesn’t work let me know.

I would definitely check out the google+ account. It’s run by people like you and me and not by Geeetech. Everyone on there has gone through the same struggles as you and me trying to build and calibrate the delta.
