yeah - I would contact RR and tell them how mosquito is a poor choice to have in the store. I really wish they would stop offering it as an option for new builds

I had this exact issue with a magnum and a 4028 fan. I had to limit the fan to 40% max otherwise I would get these as soon as the fan turned on.

Sorry to revive this but I am running into this issue now with a Mosquito, what is a better choice of hotend over the mosquito?
