Core One Camera mounting issue

I cannot get the camera to hold firmly in the corner. It is as if the magnets are not powerful enough. What am I doing wrong?

It's likely that you have simply not found the right position yet. The magnetic mount does not register in a very obvious, positive way. The optical axis (camera lens) needs to be oriented at 45° relative to each of the metal corner profiles.

Edit: Maybe try it with the cable unplugged at first, so that can't interfere. After you get the feel for the right position, repeat with the cable plugged in.

I printed this mod: Core One Buddy3D Camera lid remixed to improve view of printbed, then used super-strong N52 magnets. It also gives me a much better angle on the print bed.
