hello i got a problem that i cant solve..
installed a new aluminium xy gantry yesterday. I am using thes joiners https://www.printables.com/de/model/307508-ratrig-v-core-31-extrusionless-x-gantry-xy-joiner-
But when I tighten the belts, the right side pulls back about 5mm and so the xy axis is no longer straight. please help.
iam on it to uninstall the joiners and install the original that came from ratrig with the update kit..

Could it be that your belts don't have the same tension, I had the same with the original XY joiners and original extrusion.
If they have similar tension, loosen all the XY joiner bolts and try to remove the play that way, then retighting all bolts again.
i will test it thank you
