  • I think Airbus is too busy swimming in money.

    I heard from my neighbors - who work there - that the biggest struggle internally now is to keep their quality standards up despite everyone and their mother ordering dozens of planes as they’re cancelling as many Boeing orders as they can. So it takes constant and organized pushbacks against management to not commit the same normalization of deviance that is bringing Boeing down. You’d think it’d be easy! Because that’s exacty why their main competitor is flailing. Nope, management wants their bonuses. 😑

    At least from what they can tell me, it’s actually working though and upper management had to shut it and accept the current speed of work and enjoy the decades of backlog and paid-already contracts instead. Only 4 yachts per person or something…


  • Hrm, I had similar issues on my Artillery X2 before.

    Here’s what I went through:

    • Replaced the nozzle
    • Replaced the thermistor
    • Replaced the heating block
    • Replaced the main PCB
    • Replaced the heatbreak

    Finally, I gave up, and took out the thermistor again thinking maybe I broke it. There’s a small PCB connected to it, that sits on the side of the hot end assembly. I contacted Artillery about a potentially faulty hot end PCB, they sent me a replacement. It did not help. Desperate, I also replaced the thermistor with the replacement one that was part of their repair kit. And that worked. I think the faulty PCB broke the first replacement thermistor or something…
