I've looked at that wxm file at least a dozen times, didn't start making sense until I got this far into calibration. Thanks for the reminder it was there :). I still have a question on it though

Quote

* moving tower radially has the biggest z-height impact on the oposite side of the tower
(if it is symetricaly high/low on the oposite side then you need to move it nearer/further in firmware)
* moving tower diagonally has the biggest z-height impact just to the left/right of the tower - one side
is going up and the other side is going down
(if e.g. left side is up and right is down then you need to move tower in firmware to the right)


The way I'm reading it they switched the terms radially and diagonally. To me to move a tower radially means moving it left or right on it's radius from the center which would move it closer or further to the points to it's left and right. Likewise moving it diagnoally would move it further/closer to the center which would affect it's distance from the point opposite. For example moving tower X diagonally would move it further or closer to point R while moving it radially clockwise would make it closer to point L and further from R.

My understanding of how to move it radially is to calculate it's position with a different angel for SIN and COS, so if I want to move tower X radially clockwise I would use COS 61 and SIN 61 instead of the default 60 (all multiplied by DELTA_RADIUS). To move it diagonally I would use the default COS/SIN calculations and increase/decrease the DELTA_RADIUS that's been used for that tower.

Am I just misreading this text? It has been a while since I've dealt with geometry at this level. For reference I'm using this as my diagram Delta Chart
