Same… but I think that may be because the slicer hasn’t been updated to take the nozzle into account when estimating time. I’m printing something right now and it’s DEFINITELY printing like it’s running out of time lol. I need to run a test where I actually time it.

That interesting, definitely taking the test results. I’ll do the same as well whenever I have time and I’ll report it here.
If you want to calibrate your own filament for use with the ObXidian HF hot end, just use the regular X1 printer profile and MANUALLY adjust all the settings as needed.
For instance, I wanted to print PETG Basic with the ObXidian nozzle, but the X1C printer profile Bambu tells you to import for use with the ObXidian nozzle only includes PETG HF. What I had to do was to use the normal X1C printer profile and then create my own custom PETG Basic filament profile by changing the VFR and temp. I started with the recommended settings of 240C and 32mm3/s but that didn’t work great for me. After some testing, I ended up using temp of 275C and 29mm3/s for the VFR. That has been working great for me so far with PETG Basic. I was surprised by the 275C temp, but it was the only way I found to stop the under-extrusion issue I was getting with the recommended values. Print times have been reduce by roughly 25%.

You’re my hero! I was about to swap the ObXidian nozzle back to my normal nozzle and store it away until Bambu Labs adds the filament profiles officially to the Bambu Labs Slicer. I’ll try your settings as a start for PETG and go from there. Many thanks augie!

I had a heck of a time trying to figure out how to get the ObXidian HF to work with the X1C—especially since the documentation is very minimal.
Hopefully you get it working! Good luck
I download and installed my new PS1 E3D 0.4 High Flow ObXidian Hotend config
I followed the instructions but the bambu Studio - AMS Materials Setting - Change Factor K shows it should be 0.008 but from my side it is grayed out at 0.020
Don’t feel the instructions are very good for the 0.4 hot end.
Also I mostly print with SUNLU filament. Could you advise any setting changes?
Seeing as this is still one of the top search results for this topic, I’m here to throw in my opinion that this is, without a doubt, one of the stupidest ways to get “profiles” out for the HF nozzles.
2 different systems? One for the 0.4, one for the 0.6?
What?
PICK ONE, E3D.
If Bambu’s going to drag their feet on putting HF options directly into Studio, at least be consistent with how we’re doing the workaround.
And personally I’m incredibly frustrated by the fact that BambuStudio HAS a “nozzle type” drop down built in now - has for several versions - presumably for exactly this. And despite the E3D nozzles being out over a year they still haven’t enabled that basic functionality…
Yes, I know at the most fundamental level you can just crank up the Volumetric Flow numbers (as many have pointed out). I’ve done a stupid amount of reading on this (CNC Kitchen has some of the best explanations and tests - I think his videos are linked above already). But many of us bought a Bambu specifically so we didn’t have to test things ourselves. I’ve done it. A lot. I don’t want to anymore. lol
Anyway, thanks for those who posted the links to the “profiles” and “install” pages from E3D and Bambu! I couldn’t find them on my own. I just think they’re beyond stupid as an official option.
