As we wanted in the UM3 initially, but we cut it from the release then when it didn't work properly. Solves the 750g spool problem. I think we've gone trough 2 different sensor chip designs, and a whole bunch of mechanical designs before that part was perfect. Then the software when trough a few large iterations as well. This was quite a ride.
Great! Looking forward to see what you came up with as I know that duet3d and prusa also haven't found the best solution to spot such yet.
May this also be available for the Ultimaker 3 series ?

So it's a completely new system internally? I would have thought that you are using the same olimex and just add the different protocols for the screen

Great! I guess you are using new trinamic stepper drivers and maybe even a new 32 bit controller?
Haha I first thought that someone at Ultimaker liked his Tesla Model S tooooo much
