my xpro has a lot of quirks not running right stopping mid carve ect... CNC3D has been able to help me out a lot with it but I plan on going with the nighthawk when i save up. I have herd nothing but good about the night hawk!

[@jasonparker1454]

never heard anything like that about the xpro. mb you should check ur cablesor PC connections drivers. etc.

[@jasonparker1454]

what is the benefit to change the controller from the Xpro to the nighthawk? what can the nighthawk do that the Xpro cant?

[@cnc3d]

@jasonparker1454 the most notable difference is that the Nighthawk has the ability to start an SD card job from a specific line.
It also has better reporting of current machine conditions such as active job coordinate plane.
