Delta "un calibrates" during print

Hi there,

I have just installed repetier firmware on my delta 3d printer.
After doing all the calibrations and fixing the inevitable issues of using a new firmware, i ran into something very odd.

I managed to print a small part for the printer which was a 15 min print and it worked fine. Now i am printing a larger piece, and for some reason after the first couple of layers of printing, the printer seems to de-calibrate. The effector starts moving way off the lines it has previously been printing over and also starts to move away from the build surface. I have managed to video the print whilst this happens and i will try to find a way to upload it.

Any help is much appreciated,

Thanks,
Tom

    It is not decalibrating, it is loosing steps. Maybe because the endstop trigger from crosstalk. That happens sometimes and can be prevented by setting ALWAYS_CHECK_ENDSTOPS 0 in firmware configuration. It might also loose steps be hitting something, accelerations/jerk being to fast for motors.
