I have the M4 set up vertical at an angle of 24 degrees. My cuts are crooked when it goes to its max position top corners. Noticed that the machine itself tilts. Would it be better that the top belts were on the bottom of the machine? Like the M4 is build now its pulls itself on an angle.
what are the heights of the anchors compared to the arms? can you post a picture
shoting what you are talking about?

I have the same problem - my frame is smaller than the standard frame and I think the angle that this increases the angle from the left top anchor to the top spool of the Maslow 4. When at that top left it pulls the sled away from the spoiler board. From what I read on here (cannot remember where), if the anchor points are raised to be level with the corresponding spool it will reduce the amount of error at the extremes and a more horizontal, inline pull may help reduce the tendency to tilt the sled. Any change in the anchor lights needs to be reflected in the yaml file as well.
