And now the new QiDi X-Pro. Some nice new features on this one... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076BLQWHY
Recent review on QiDi X-One2:

Hmm, a genuine Trifecta! You might consider adding this to your QiDi Tech 1. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:124700
Possible problem with X-Axis cable. That's why QiDi ships a spare with the machine. Use of a cable chain can significantly reduce the frequency of a problem with this cable.
Also check that...
Glass and glue stick works remarkably well for me. Lots of folks have bought the Microswiss and installed them in the stock QiDi. However the Microswiss all metal hotend assy is a slightly...
Have fun with your new QiDi!
I have not found any benefit to having the bed be loosey-goosey because the leveling screws / springs are not tightened down. I completely agree that having the bed NOT wobble about makes for a...
One other item, you mentioned only printing from the Right extruder. Commonly when printing PLA, the best results are obtained with the use of a cooling blower/fan. Unless you have customized the...
And frequently, when the filament does not flow within a specific area of the print surface, it is because that area is too close to the nozzle. This is precisely what would happen if the extruder...
Finally hunted down an X-One2 ad on Amazon UK. Not much additional info. https://www.amazon.co.uk/QIDI-TECHNOLOGY-Printer-Newest-Model/dp/B01IHHJ7R4

It's now an enclosed chamber.
Nothing on QiDi websites, no additional info from QiDi support. This is all I can find so far.
Just got a tool that works unbelievably well for trimming chaff or sharps off the edges of prints. I had used them on aluminum chassis openings after nibbling away a few eons ago and forgotten how...
For whatever reason, the power supply fan on my QiDi is very quiet. Only the fan that was cooling the stepper motor driver modules was noisy.
Finally replaced that darn noisy fan inside the QiDi.
Here is how I did it: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2379468
Hey W, did you ever receive and install the multi-color /filament options for your Prusa? If so, how does that work?
FYI Here are some additional clues about S3D functions that I got from them.

I think I understand how to do a filament change now with Sailfish on a QiDi under S3D. The M322 command works, but you have to define the Z height where the change is to occur, and insert the "M322...
Yeah, I wanted something a bit more repeatable.
Any QiDi users know how to coerce S3D and QiDi to pause for filament change when printing from an SD?
I do not have an all metal hot end on my QiDi printer. I don't know what its top operating temperature might be.
If you end up taking the hot end approach, you might check out jfkansas site. He makes some kits that might help with that changeover. I think there are some size differences that need to be...
!! 32 to 50 open rolls !! Holy cow W, what are you doing there? I've been really pleased with the platform upgrade from JFK, which mod are you getting?
I've not measured the MG filament...
Hi W! Glad to hear it was an easy fix for you. I got some more Raptor PLA filament from MG last week. All bags sealed and filament is working well. I continue to be extremely pleased with the...
Apoc4, I totally agree w/ Rcleav's comments re. S3D. Well worth the $. How is your slicer configured wrt the type of printer you are using? Can you do a single extruder print without issues?
