Anyone still holding out on orca for now

I switched to Orca Slicer 2.3.2 and rolled back my AD5M Pro to an older firmware. Things are going mostly well since I did that. Not really planning to upgrade to the latest of anything from FlashForge for a while.

Just ordered the ad5x

Good luck and have fun. I am new to 3d printing as of Christmas 2025. My 1st machine was a adventurer 5m pro. I have been having a blast with it. Very user friendly. Not sure the differences with software etc but I use mainline orca slicer and have been having a blast. Some failed prints but mostly

Beginner doubts

Orca-Flashforge is okay, if you are familiar with Orca you may miss a few features, for most of my printing I don’t. As far as firmware goes, be cautious, many of the problems we hear about are people who are either very early to adopt a new firmware family, try to upgrade to fix a “problem” which s

Para mí primera impresora me recomiendan la Flashforge Adventurer 5M

I have the FlashForge AD5M Pro which is identical in most ways... It was my first printer and it a good choice for learning. It also offers some good options to expand, upgrade, and modify Zmod or forgex for full klipper. Lots of aftermarket plates in compatible sizes. (Love my cryogrip glacier) Sev

questions on adventure 5m - custom firmware?

I was running stock since I bought mine a year ago. The recent update to include AI ads in their software is what made me switch to the Klipper mod. From what I know of the Klipper mod, it currently does not brick your machine and allows you to go back to stock should you wish it. That situation mig

Sell me on Klipper

Way better method of monitoring your printer remotely than Flashforges awful app. Better control over just about every aspect of your printer. Bed mesh function that allows you to make sure your bed is physically level, which makes the auto-level way more accurate and prints come out better. Select

HOW TO VIDEO: Klipper Mod on Flashforge Adventurer 5M (AD5M)! Get Moonraker, Mainsail, Fluidd, & remote WIFI printing!

Thanks for this. Two years old, but especially relevant now with how Flashforge has decided to lock down their environment and shoehorn AI Slop ads into their software. Just starting to research how to install klipper mod on my AD5M Pro and your video was very helpful

Flashforge adventurer 5M vs Bambu Lab, Creality and Ankermake

I don't think flashprint will be better than orca slicer and vibration compensation of flashforge is worse than a bambu, but still the gap is not that big :) (I own flashforge ad5m pro)

Buying First Printer

I haven’t had any issues with the 5M pro’s software, I would recommend downloading OrcaFlashforge for the slicer since it is optimized, and the only thing that will get to be annoying is that it will constantly log you out of your account. The mobile and pc ui for the flash forge app sucks and is re

Zmod or forge-x?

You don't need the ssh access unless you intend to go back to stock and Forge-X uninstall nuked your AD5M json file (it did for mine) which I believe is a rare side effect of the removal process. The screen loss is just some of the stock functions but you can control literally everything from a web
