Hello,
I can't find the original firmware that came with the tevo tarantula pro any where online. Does any one else know where to find it or still have it and could provide me with it? Thank you in advance.

Hi, have been looking to get my own printer since COVID lockdown began, here in the UK, limiting my use of my works printer. Have seen loads of positive reviews for this printer and recently a friend also reviewed the Tarantula and didn’t have any ‘buts’ in it lol. He then said about the price on Banggood. So after putting some savings away I was already to purchase after next payday. To my surprise the printer price was reduced down to £130.00 (UK pounds)! Had to wait a few days till payday had cleared and the price had started going back up...so ordered at £132.00. It’s now in transit. I have access to an Ultimaker S5 in work, but really wanted a printer for home. Really looking forward to getting it set up and printing.

Hi fellow Tarantula owners!

As part of a school project where I am investigating how viable a recycling filament extruder is for hobbyists, I have set up a small survey so I can get an understanding of how the average person uses their printer and filament. I am doing this as the information I collect will allow me to come to a conclusion whether hobbyists should recycle their waster prints in a filament extruder. I will do this by comparing the trends from the survey to the amount of money and time it takes to make my own filament extruder.

You don't have to own a filament extruder to take this survey and it should take less than 3 minutes. It should also go without saying that all information is anonymous.

I really appreciate your help and look forward to being able to give back to the community in the same way you have helped me!

Here's the link to the survey:

Thanks again!
