Kobra Max Hemera Upgrade

thingiverse

This is E3D Hemera direct drive upgrade. It is not a simple one as it requires soldering. It does NOT require recompiling firmware. Before starting I'd suggest to have screw drivers, soldering tools, shrink wraps, buy a set of M3 screws at various lengths and JST connectors. Auto bed level works but it the fan shroud needs to be taken off and appropriate lenght screw put into orgianl holder. The holder is mounted underneath motor on the right. Hemera is the original with V6 with full motor. For pancake motor, holes in the carry plate would need to remapped. Cable holder needs additional holes drilled for joining them together and one for zip ties. Don't worry about this step, it will become clear and easy once you get to this point of the upgrade (and takes about 2 mins) :) After upgrade the bed level, e-steps, PID tuning, re-centering need to be done. Also since hardware is not recompiled most likely you will need to run the prints at lower temperatures. I'd suggest to run temp tower with filament you are familiar with to find out temperature difference. Link to the fan shroud: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4031637
