    I'm having problems with gaps in the outer layers of prints. I have a Robo 3D R1 plus+ with an e3d V6 hot end installed on it. Although I still had this problem on my old hexagon it seems worse on the new e3d v6. which leads me to believe its an extrusion problem like its jamming for a second then continuing. Any information would be helpful.

    And I know there is already a thread about missing layers, but nothings been resolved in that thread and I think this is a completely different problem.[​IMG]

    I was having a similar issue until I calibrated the extruder steps. I was under extruding by about 5%
