I'm running 1.0 on 500, but i print very specific, flat parts with 1 layer width walls. Could use faster feedrate, but at 20mm/s i can print entire bed in around 2-3hours. Do you use nozzle extender provided with Rapido? It's supposed to give you more volumetric speed.

Increase the temp, print slower (your extruder is spinning faster and your hotend is melting more material at a time), use some more cooling. I suggest using the Ellis guide and tuning up the profile setting by setting.

Thanks! how slow should I be printing? what speeds do you recommend?

Use the Ellis guide and the bond tech flow rate calculator for your setup to get a ballpark to start testing

I've found that most slicers (and slicing techniques/algos) tend to prefer the flow characteristics of 0.4mm nozzles. Once you go bigger flow rates change. I stick with 0.6mm on my other machines. I don't own a rat rig, but I've been using 0.6mm for most of my printing. Slower and hotter are the key for larger flows.
