Ender 3S1 pro
It was done at 150 speed as the point is to try print faster with the new cht nozzle. I noticed the first layer is thin i did up the nozzle temp as I did it at 195 originally but after the first layer I upped it to 210.

Material:PLA

Slicer:Prusa Slicer

Retraction length:2
Retraction speed:35
Detraction speed:0
Detraction length:0
Minimum travel after retraction:2
Retract on layer change:on
Wipe while retracing:off

AI Help

It sounds like you are experimenting with printing at higher speeds with a new nozzle on your Ender 3S1 pro. To address the thin first layer, try adjusting your initial layer height in the slicer settings to ensure proper adhesion. Increasing the nozzle temperature may help with better flow and adhesion as well.

Since you are already using a higher temperature (210°C) for PLA, you could also check the bed leveling to ensure that the first layer is being squished correctly.

Additionally, consider adjusting the retraction settings. The retraction length of 2mm and speed of 35mm/s seem reasonable for PLA, but you may want to experiment with different values to see if it improves print quality, especially at higher speeds.

Lastly, verify that your print speed settings are suitable for the selected nozzle and material. You may need to fine-tune other speed-related settings like travel speed and overall print speed to achieve the desired results.

If you continue to experience issues,...

Have you done a max volumetric flow calibration yet?

It looks fine when it's at higher speeds but is having under extrusion around the cabin area.

Never even heard of that so no

#

I'll look into it

Thanks

Calibration
Calibration and tuning can help with all aspects of print quality.
Extruder calibration should be done only once, and then again if you change any hardware on your extruder setup (new tube, gear drive, different motor, etc).
Flow calculation should be done for every filament, even different colours from the same brand.

A number of calibration and tuning guides exist online:
