Which line to choose inFLOW DYNAMICS CALIBRATION

When I do a Flow Dynamics Calibration, Bamboo Studio offers a example of a model image on the screen which is very different from the model that I get when I calibrate and print this filament. In my print I get 11 lines of filament.


After analyzing the lines on my print it’s clear that the best line is the sixth line from the bottom. Would I be wrong in assuming that this line is 0.05?

0.025 - it’s between 0.02 and 0.03.

The number of lines and the step size is chosen when setting up the flow dynamics calibration test. The example shown in the Bambu wiki uses a test setting of a k factor from 0 to 0.05 in 0.005 steps and that DOES NOT not match the example picture given of the (supposed) results. On the other hand, your result DOES match correctly if using 0 to 0.05 in 0.005 steps. Your best result appears to be a k factor of about 0.025 (halfway between the 0.02 and 0.03 lines).

Wow was I off! I input 0.05. To be clear the best line in my print was the 6th from the bottom. I interpreted this as 0.05mm
Honestly it’s a bit confusing trying to understand the wiki page compared to what is printed in the test but I will update this filament profile and do a test print of something. It gets a little embarrassing asking for help on something so basic but I’m glad I did. Thank you so much for your replies!
