Each stepper runs independently so you can level the bed.
its make sense
. but lets say im very price sensitive, would it be possible to have just one motor, and level the bed manually? Like this i could save two motors, and a cheaper board would be enough?
For as much as a Trident costs to build, two extra motors and the supporting electronics is something like a 3% increase. Personally I would rather people buy a different and less expensive printer to have a functional printer than to have a Voron that has corners cut.
thx. could you suggest a cheaper but still good printer in 300cmX300cmX300cm? (i know this is voron a forum and it is not polite but maybe it is allowed)
Inexpensive options at that size are the Creality Ender 5 Plus, Creality CR-10, or Tronxy X5SA.
This is not a forum to discuss the world of 3d printing, but I want people to be successful even if is it not with a Voron.

Nero has been saying the Sovol SV06 is a good budget printer. It look like they are coming out with a 300 version very soon.
Like @120decibell noted, the extra two Z motors isn't much of the cost of a Trident. I self-sourced my Trident build to spread out the cost; my Z motors came from Sparta 3D in their kit, which is currently showing sold out but is about $95 for the three or about $32 per motor individually.
