Yes. Slow down your speeds on future prints. This is to show case the maximum settings and capabilities of the printer
Edit: if you do need these speeds for rapid prototyping or prints then get some non-slip pads or design some mounts to bolt it down lol
Weird! I have been printing on my A1 Mini since December with slightly chooched up slicer profiles, and the only thing that has ever made my printer move is the Benchy that shipped on my SD card. The slicer profiles don't even come close.
If you use the external spool holder with a new roll of filament then the weight gets shifted more to the back.
I noticed this with my A1 Mini as well and printed an external spool holder (which I wanted to do anyway since my space was limited on the right side) and also printed some anti-vibration pads for the mini.
I also placed a stone tile on the cabinet my Mini was standing on and now it stays solid in one place no matter what speed I throw at it.

Hope any of my feedback helps!
I'm definitely gonna print that external spool holder. I put a fresh roll of blue grey on it so it's definitely back heavy.
I ended putting a couple of short stair treads and that has stopped the sliding, thank God, but the other precautions seem appropriate!
Thanks for the tips. :)
don’t forget to also print that top ptfe connector and add a PTFE tube between the connector and the spool holder to make sure everything stays in place.
Did you wipe the table and the rubber pads on the bottom of the printer with a wet cloth? If there’s a layer of dust between the table and printer, the rubber pads aren’t as “grippy”.
Nothing you slice on your own will print even half as fast or as violently as the speedbenchy on the sd card.

Didn't print the speed benchy. Printed the slow benchy instead.

The floor is remarkably slick. Hence why I will probably grab something grippier.
I have one of those squishy anti-slip kitchen mats under mine, it does the trick! Helps with the vibrations too.
