Grinding Slipping Noise

I had the same problem and applying 1.0.8b1 fix the issue without need to slow feed rate. This release has code to ajust max-deviation to a new value of 0.05 (actual 0.001) and also ajust new settings (max-blend-error, max-merge-error, max-arc-error) that are not used in 1.0.7.

This enforce acceleration and jerk limits. You lose a little speed, but the machine is actually following the correct path, and not overloading what the steppers (torque) are capable of.

I installed it ‘upgrade via file’ using the firmware bz2 file release 1.0.8b1 found on github under assets.
