Delta printer and backlash compensation

I read a post from way back 2014 that backlash compensation was not supported for deltas - is this still the case?

If not how do I go about measuring each motor and adjusting it?

    Backlash for delta is in deed not supported as it would work different and I don't think it woul dbe able to love anything. Further more all motors must have same steps per mm.

    What do you mean with measuring each motor?

    If it worked I would have presumed the three motors would be slightly different and need to be compensated individually.

    However when its not available for deltas, its a moot point I guess. Thanks for clarifying though!

    On delta you need same strain on all belts so all steps per mm remain the same.
