I would like to print Nylon parts for my rc cars, but I can't seem to get the printer to start printing from 230C

Changed temp 230c in printer settings, but it starts printing at 210c and then heats to 230c

Is there any reason why it always starts at 210c?

The idbox spec info indicates its filament type is ABS and PLA only and not designed for Nylon use.
You may find that printing normal nylon won't provide the same rigidity or strength of glass reinforced nylon, which is the material mostly used for RC cars especially where high strength is needed for such as wishbones.
