First print came out like this, second print I tightened the orbiter gears and didn’t have any extrusion issues, and this is the third try with issues again
Some minor click noise on retractions but it eventually extrudes fine againhave you tuned your retractions?

I have a print going with it lowered from 0.6 to 0.4

Still an issue
What is your hotend temp?
Is the thermistor properly in there with thermal grease?
And the hotend (coldend) cooling fan?

215c pid tuned for fan speed, it’s a new rapido so just as how it came, and the hotend fan seems to be working as expected
How did you come to 215C?
You are using PS filament? That's polystyrene?
A quick google for PS print temps returns 220-240C...

PS = PrusaSlicer
Printing PLA using PLA settings
Anyways, I changed my nozzle and filament and so far so good. I'm leaning towards nozzle being suspect. Will report back when I try the other filament again

It was the nozzle, I was able to print this blue pla without issues flawlessly
