smoothieboard 4x configured for a delta printer
Here’s a quick pic: mattlapaglia dot com /wp-content/uploads/2015/02/IMG_20150208_223541 (dot) jpg
The three towers home correctly towards the max end stops. Moving the effector around manually works as expected. When I try to print an object the gamma axis always jams upwards while the other two axis perform normally.
I’ve switched the end stops and motors around to make sure it wasn’t anything with those particular components.
Here is some gcode from Cura, set with the “hardware center at 0, 0” checked in the config:

G1 F1200 X22.719 Y-16.569 E0.01974
If I execute the G0 command manually, it performs as expected. When I execute the actual gcode file though, the gamma axis pushes up into the end stop, forcing me to shut off the machine.
I upgraded to the latest stable firmware and started from a fresh config file for the delta style printers.
Any help would be appreciated!
