I have my Mega V built But I cannot get UGS to recognize the control box. What am I not doing correctly? When I switch over to my carve king UGS works just fine.

The com port probably needs to be changed. Click the "refresh" button for COM ports and select the new com port. The Arduino will select a different comm port for each controller between the Carve king and Mega V.

Check out some video tutorials that we've posted in the general forum. From there just set a small goal of something like a square or a circle cut into softer material like MDF then build from there.

I have had the machine running for a week now but have yet to make a good carve. I have tried several different files. But on each about 3/4 of the way through the Ruffing my z starts to drop. I have the past depth set at .0625 But in about the same area 3/4 through the the z drops to about .25.

Make sure your not hitting the top Z axis travel limit. The Carve King has .25" extra travel in the Z axis compared to the Mega V.
