I think it depends on the printer you want to use.
For my KLD-1260 I've used WheresWaldo marlin
https://github.com/WheresWaldo/Marlin_KLD-LCD

For the Wanhao D7 there is a different firmware in their page.

Re: Best arduino mega / ramps1.4 firmware?

This printer is my own, so I have the marlin-mUVe firmware (modified by me to turn on automatic driver cooling (D10) and fix optical endstops). I can not run the M106 / M107 commands to activate the uv led on D9 or D8 ... any idea about it?
Or should I start with the firmware recommended by you? (Which I had already downloaded)

Re: Best arduino mega / ramps1.4 firmware?

Max, my revision of Marlin started out as mUVe's version. I stripped out every mUVe modification other than the synchronize command for G1 moves. Then I went ahead an applied the same modifications to Marlin 1.0.2+ which according to Marlin developers is the most stable version of Marlin 1.0.x. It only adds the 'Z_move_comp' message and none of the other crap unnecessary for most of these printers. Just make sure you pull branch 1.0.2 and you will have the latest, please note that Configuration.h is modified for KLD/Soyo/Photonics style printers, so make the appropriate adjustments before flashing.

Great, then I make changes to the other firmware
(auto startup fan at driver startup and autostop at 30 sec. To end driver )
and more..
And use your

Tomorrow I go on vacation, when I come back I install your firmware on ramps and do the tests I have to do

Hello

I tested your Marlin mod, and it work great out of the box.

i will be interested to see your machine setup and also some resin setup. If you can share that.
Thanks

I recently submitted a Pull Request to the 1.1.x Marlin branch, so future releases could include G1 commands Z axis synchronization as an option in configuration.h.
PR is yet under revision, so if you want to try it meanwhile here you can find latest Marlin 1.1.6 release + z_sync addition.
https://github.com/robpower/Marlin/tree/1.1.x-NanoDLP

Info on how to enable the option and any feedback in the following thread:
https://www.nanodlp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=958

PS: of course it is stock Marlin, you need to also change configuration.h according to your printer requirements.
