As wardjr said before the only one that would really benefit from a DRV8825 is E, but it is not a necessity.

I also do not care for the "auto-leveling" thing, and have not found any reason to add it to any of my machines (currently 4).
Taking the time to properly adjust things and removing any slop in the mechanical's will go much farther than auto leveling will. Not to mention that you STILL need to properly level your bed manually before using an auto-leveling system - so what is the point?

I set it with max microstep (16).

Auto level simply adds another un needed variable into a system with too many variables.  Using software to compensate for a poor mechanical platform should be a last resort.  It also adds unnecessary complexity to an already complex system.  Properly level your bed and use glass to create a flat surface.  Remove any slop or play and there is no need for auto level.

I have standard pieces (extruder...), but i see another motors and another extruder for improve the quality of this printer. Why do not you like auto level ? It is not accurate or it has other problem ?

PS: Can you help me for add another fan for PLA? in http://reprap.org/wiki/RUMBA#FAN0. Fan0 or Fan 1 for PLA? ithink FAN0 for extruder and FAN1 for pla but i don't know.

Because in the forum i see the version of Marlin with function G29 (autolevel bed) so i can install it and then mount a M12 proximity sensor (http://www.soliforum.com/topic/13564/ha … ng-on-sd2/)

But i prefer for my budget under 100€, because i have another project for this printer.When it works again , i would add a autoleveling bed (with proximity sensor)

But i see another ramps 1.4: SainSmart 2 in 1 it's better because all in one, it is simple for power and connection.
What do you think about it?
Thank you very much for your time smile

driver better is DRV8825.
