G00/G01, speed/acceleration/(not) jerk, and Marlin/grbl

As promissed feedback following a play with this:

Current settings in firmware as follows:

#define G0_FEEDRATE 3000 // (mm/m)
#ifdef G0_FEEDRATE
    #define VARIABLE_G0_FEEDRATE // The G0 feedrate is set by F in G0 motion mode
#endif 
  • Travelling when sending manual G0 via terminal are great (nice a fast)
  • When using jog function in my weapon of choice (Octoprint); appears Octoprint is hard coded to send the feedrate with G0 which over rides the speed (cant find anywhere to change this)…if I am brave enough to override #define VARIABLE_G0_FEEDRATE then this should over come this problem but at the risk of some funky cutting speeds if there are any accidently G0 instructions slipped into my machining programs
