Toolhead 1.0 Sizing Issue - vCore 3.1
Hi there, about a year ago I ordered the Toolhead v1.0 kit for the vcore 3.1 along with a hotend/extruder.
LDO Orbiter V2.0 Extruder
Phaetus Rapido 2.0 Plus UHF Hotend
Rat Rig V-Core Toolhead v1.0 - Upgrade Kit for V-Core 3.1 - Printed Parts (Orbiter/Rapido)
But when I put it together, the nozzle on the hotend sits about 5mm above the cooling fans. Because of this, I can't print anything with the part cooling fans attached.
I never bothered to debug the issue until now, but I need a working printer.
Is it possible I was given the wrong kit? The way I understand it, the Rapido Plus is the same dimensions as the regular Rapido. Is the V2.0 the wrong hotend?
Any help figuring out the correct parts to print to make this work would be welcome!

This is the order sheet. It all came together.

The distance from the baseplate to the tip of the extruder is only 2 inches, not 2.5 inches like the step files suggest. I don't think I'm missing any pieces on the rapido. Is there a short version of it or something? I seem to be missing .5 inches
It looks like I'm missing some high flow adapter thing. I can't find my rapido box with parts, any chance anyone has a part number or part name that I can find a spare?
