Help! Laser not engraving as depicted in Light Burn

For some reason the laser is not engraving as depicted in the program. As you can see. there is an odd curve at the leading edge of the airplanes wings that should not be there. Initially I just engraved the SVG image. Then I traced the image thinking that might resolve the issue but it did not. Any ideas??

To me, I would check for backlash issues. The white dots might indicate a problem with both the X&Y axis.

This link applies to most diode lasers.

If your your issue goes away when you turn off bi-directional scan, it’s backlash.

I turned off bi directional scan and still no solution. It engraves correctly 50% of the time, I don’t understand. The first image I uploaded it engraved correctly, then I started the next job without changing any settings and it engraved poorly.
