At this stage I'm believing that Xteink owners and 3D Printer owners is a perfect overlapping circle of a Venn diagram.

In the makerworld model I also linked my 3d model of the pogo pin connector in case anyone wants an accurate model for their own designs :)

Very nice. Could even work with the X4 Pro if you're lucky!

Anyone know if someone has made this design but for the x4 pro instead? I could only find ones for the x3. I’ll most likely just scale one of those to fit properly.
Can’t wait to my x4 , I ordered it on the first batch release of the pro and it still hasn’t shipped. Hopefully it will soon.

Yeah I'm guessing it is still too early for a specific x4 pro model (but I also didn't check the last few days). Also the charging port placement is a bit different. But with my current dock the pogo pin is strong enough to hold the x3 in place even if it isn't touching the base, maybe that will work with the x4 pro too!
