Not sure if this has been discussed before, but would it be possible to alter the delta\_calibrate function to specify a convergence integer (ie the number of times it repeats the routine with the newest values)?

I’ve had terrible first layers on my klipper delta for years, and upgraded pretty much everything I could think of; aluminum effector/ carriages, linear rails, precision magball arms, precision probe, printer frame is solid as an ox… still terrible first layers.

Turns out it is an issue with the (lack of) convergence in the delta\_calibrate routine. If I run this routine 5 times (each time using the newest values) the calculated results begin to converge, and my 1st layer issue is now 100% gone. I’d repeat this process more times to get a better converged average, but it’s a real pain to do manually.

I’ve struggled with this issue for a long time, as I’m sure many delta owners have who only run delta\_calibrate once. It was a real pain to assess what was happening/ I probably wasted a lot of time and money figuring it out; maybe consider adding functionality that uses converged values rather than a singular initial value?

This would be a great feature! Maybe this can be accomplished with a macro…???
