@ruhigundrelaxed said in help needed: first layer in midair (~.5mm):
G30 ; home Z by probing the bed G30 P0 X0 Y165 Z-99999 ; probe near a leadscrew, half way along Y axis G30 P1 X280 Y165 Z-99999 S2 ; probe near a leadscrew and calibrate 2 motors
It's generally a good idea to do another G30 at the center of the bed after doing the tilt correction, because the tilt correction changes the height of the bed slightly.
