Or flash repetier and you can do away with the 2nd extruder altogether.

You would need to leave a the hotend heater and thermistor attached or the machine would fail the power up self test. It looks for both devices to be present and connected at power up. You might can get away with disconnecting the heater, but the thermistor absolutely must remain attached even if you are not using that channel it still looks for it at power up since the firmware knows there should be two.

I would say yes it is possible you would just have to do a modified carriage. You can go with a pico or e3d hotend.

As I was looking at my original stock print heads. It looks like I can totally take the second head off. Would that cause the printer to not print? I know this thing looks for everything on boot up and mine is basically stock. Just curious. I am so sick of the dragging of the second head. Its driving me nuts!

Hey folks I have a Da Vinci 2.0. I would love nothing more than to take out the second print head. Is that possible? I really think it causes more problems than anything. Not to mention I almost never use it.
