    Try dropping Fpwm on both motors to 25, then refine the settings for both.

    SimTools v3 is at the tail end of Beta and is the best way to go if you are starting out, as it has the inbuilt repository for motion plugins and is all in one interface.

    That said, V2 and V3 can both be installed on the same computer, and use the same SimTools license, but v2 plugin access is separate and an additional cost: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/coins-and-how-to-download-plugins.2/
