This is the brand new Artillery Sidewinder X3 Pro, the worthy successor to the Sidewinder X2 3D printer that many of us loved! We've all been patiently waiting for Artillery to release new machines, and that time is finally here, with the X3 and X4 series arriving. This is a 300mm/s speed demon running the latest version of Marlin firmware. This is a feature packed machine at an incredible price point.
Thank you Artillery for sending us over this machine for us to share with our audience.

I'm still on the sidewinder x2. Been a great printer so far with minor issues. Their support is worse than useless though. I also have big issues sourcing any firmware updates for it.
X2 is my work horse as well. I use it through OctoPrint, but it was pain in the backside trying to find the suitable firmware files.
@@GreySectoid there appears to be different ones on their website. With no indication what the difference between them is!
I like that machine! It is a great one.
Great video! The X1 was my first printer that started it all. I pre-ordered the X4 pro and cant wait to see your review on it!
OH! AWESOME! I am excited for the X4s to arrive so I can get a good look at them.
Very nice video!!!it’s a week ago since I received this incredible machine…it’s my first 3d printer and am very excited about it!!!it cost me 228€!!!!!
Congratulations! Welcome to 3D printing! 💜 That is a really great price too!
This out paces, out features and out prices the Kobra 2 Neo ... The 300c nozzle temp and duel z rod is the icing on the cake!!!
Amazing isn't it! So many awesome features in this $200 to $300 price range.
@@LoyalMosesя его купил за 172 доллара
@@LoyalMoses It's currently selling for ~119 EUR (including 23% VAT), while Kobra 2 Neo and Ender 3 SE are 149 EUR (with same VAT rate). I think X3 Pro is THE cheapest printer that you can get. I bought one and I'll run some Klipper on that.
I've got the X3 Plus and it's been a good machine so far.
The only problem I've had with it is the 4GB sd card corrupted, but the test models on the card still work.
Artillery said that you can use up to a 32GB card as long formatted in FAT32.
You will find 2 things interesting with the bed. It has 6 leveling adjustment wheels instead of 4. Also the bed is solid mounted to the trolly in the center with 2 screws and spacers. Artillery has explained why this was done and it is to stop the bed from sagging in the middle when heated up. Makes sense because of its large bed size and magnetic bed.
Also at 300mm/s the bed would ever so slightly whip, with just springs and ruin a print if not solidly mounted.
The XYZ end stop switches are magnetic proximity switches and not mechanical like on an Ender.
We have content for the X4 Plus coming shortly! Thanks for sharing!
The corded/detached handset is awesome to run the printer in an enclosure.... orderes a longer cordniff Amazon for a few bucks. Also, the LED light bar is great in the enclosure also....
Fantastic use of it!
$219 is insane. I'd love to buy it but now I have to wait for the X4.
I want to test the X4 soon!
I bought one, and my feelings about this machine are mixed. After finding all the information that's missing from the (really shoddy) manual, I can put it to work quite reliably. But it's not that good without proper handling. Maybe fine for those having lots of experience, but not for beginners. Getting to the nozzle and cleaning is a chore, though …
I hope it works. I got it for 119
WOW! That is a crazy good price.
@LoyalMoses works great too! I'm trying to find a good approach for modifying existing stl files. I'm thinking maybe blender. I'm still new to all this
x3 pro vs the x4 pro s1 wich one would you choose ?
So theres now a Sidewinder X4 Pro Already and its got klipper! Cant wait to see the x3 and x4 head to head
Yes, we’ll have content for that soon! They are different machines at different price points for consumers.
I myself have bought the X3 Plus. While its speed is astounding, quality of prints is great and user interface is quite user friendly. The bed is what triggers me a little, the pom wheels are not tight at all and there is no way to tighten them without disassembeling half of the printer, so basicaly after every print I have to retighten the eccentric nuts.
I can tighten mine without disassembling it. Do you have giant hands!? 😁
im having bad quality with anything over like 80 mm/s. any advice?@@LoyalMoses
What's the "normal" speed/acceleration for this printer that I can comfortably print with without losing a ton of details?
200* easily
Wow, great review and a killer prince. crazy
I know, the price is crazy! Love it!
I'm getting one through your affiliate link. I dont' need it, and my wife will be super pissed, but it's just too good of a deal.
Just got it. Crazy well built. Super nice and cost me $199. Unfortunately took 2 weeks to get, but it's everything you said it was.
Fantastic! I was printing on this one this last week.
Well, had a lot of issues. Bad x axis ribbon cable end, and miss-installed reset button causing constant resets and freezing. Other than that, it's been great. Had to sort those out myself. It's a great marlin 2 machine that has 4040 extrusions sides and back, but just a plastic plate in the front. Which is fine because of the box construction, but the end plate is fussy if that button isn't right. I think mine was a christmas rush printer.
Really good customer service though. Not fast, but good. They admit to being overloaded (as are others, I bought 2 sovol printers a few weeks before this one had issues with one of those) but I found after sales service to be super. I got mine for $199 but missed the coupon so it didn't apply, they applied it after the fact for me, and in dealing with the reset/freezing issue, have been great.
"I purchased the Sidewinder X1 3D printer in 2020, and it has served me well. However, I am now looking to buy a smaller printer, and I am considering both the Sidewinder X4 and the Ender-3 V3 KE. Before buying the Sidewinder X1, I owned an Ender 3 Pro, which I had heavily modified. I sold it to finance the purchase of the Sidewinder X1. Although the Sidewinder X1 has a larger print bed, I always felt that the Ender 3 Pro produced more detailed prints. At the time, I wanted a bigger print bed to print helmets for cosplay."
Oh, I haven't used either the X4 or the KE, but I do have the KE here and I am going to unbox it shortly and get it printing! Content on that very soon! We had a X2 and it was a good machine, very good helmets came off of that thing. It had some minor issues, but nothing that was a deal breaker, especially for that price.
I am currently working on SW X3 Plus and I wonder whether Artillery will release its nozzles for these printers or whether I will have to look for other manufacturers. If you have good contact with the company, you would try to get such information, but I am not lucky enough with their employees or they do not have such information.ideo,
How do you like that machine?! I will find out about nozzles - join our discord and I'll be sure to post an update there.
discord.thelmshow.com
What do you think about the SideWinder X4 Pro? Is it better than the Creality V3 KE?
I have the X4 Pro on the way, and the KE is here in a box and I haven't yet opened it. We'll have content for these really soon!
It is priced at RM1100 / $240 here in Malaysia and now it's under promotional price at RM987 / $215
Is that a good price for a machine there?
yes absolutely. I definitely thinking to upgrade it with klipper by myself because i would like it to have smart features that is no compromises and no cookies installed in the future Haha.@@LoyalMoses
Congratulations for your last video!!!I would be grateful if could make some video for sw3pro!!!as I wrote in your previous video it’s my first 3d printer and I need some advice from you!!!thanks a lot!!!
Thank you and congratulations on an awesome machine!
Did you join our discord?

I have the same 3D printer the artillery sidewinder x3 pro
When is the x4 video coming thinking of buying a 3d printer soon cant choice yet
We have some new machines here! Content coming!
I had to come to this video to see this printer on its own after that comparison video lol
Amazing machine!
As a side note what sort of current draw do these use?
Eg: Watts when in full swing
Tia.
Not much, anywhere from 100 to 300 watts at most.
PLA то и мой х1 старой ревизии прекрасно печатает, а как дела обстоят с PETG? С другими требовательными материалами, такими как поликарбонат? или e-TPU
PETG and TPU yes! PC not likely unless you found a PC blend that was less prone to warping.
It's just the bed size that is killing it for me. Does it really cost that much more to go from a 256x256 to a 300x300 (or Helmet class) printer instead to take it to a smaller 240x240 sized bed and try to make it an attractive price? Granted, 99.9% of most things I ever print would fit on this without issue, it is just the thought of having to cut up a model to print and then glooping it back together. Will we see a comparison on this vs the A1 vs the Creality Ender 3?
I believe it does, I’ve been told that the largest cost is on the Y, then X, then Z.
Don’t worry though, they already have larger X3s for $100 more I believe, and wait until you see what’s coming! 🔥
Absolutely, comparisons are my favorite videos to do, I think they give people more actionable data!
@@LoyalMoses that is the hardest part. Knowing when to buy and not get buyers remorse because something better comes out soon after.
@@claytonsmith9170it’s like phones soon as you buy one they’re out of date🙄
But hey they still perform
It Does, that why you see these sub Between 225--256 models they are always trying to get that sweet spot for Them. But Yeah I wanted a Bigger printer was disappointed this wasn't 300 x 300 x 400 like the X2. I am sure Both Bambu and Artillery will release a Much Larger printer THIS Year so I would just wait.
I'm thinking it could be in the $350-400 range in CAD, so $260-300 USD roughly. Quite an impressive machine, especially for the actual price, great review.
That’s a pretty good guess!
would you recommend waiting for the x4 plus or just getting the x3 plus? I am looking for a fast reliable printer that can printer larger objects fast with quality and also like to be on the more money friendly side if possible.
I’ve got content coming on the X4!
Good printers are spoiled with $1 filament sensors. Also, how does that filament sensor work, when printing at or near maximum height? Even if print head does not hit it, filament needs to make enormous bends.
My favourite filament sensor is printed, with skate bearing and limit switch with roll arm. There is no space for the filament to escape or bend away from the switch like what happens with these cheap ones. PTFE tube with cut on one side for the roll arm also works, though it is more fiddly. Used that mechanism with Orbiter 2 for a while (bearing is heavy) ;)
Thanks for sharing!
Maybe I am asking for too much - this unit would be perfect for me if had WiFi capacity (or an easy way to upgrade it for WiFi)
Yes, I agree! the X4 has wifi!
If I can should I go for the X4 pro?
Klipper machine, 500mm/s, linear rails, wifi, etc - I haven''t tested that one yet, so I can't share any insight on it, but it looks promising. We expect it here shortly.
What type mainboard is it running?
I just can’t do Marlin and would want to swap it over to Klipper like my X2s and Genius Pros.
It’s going for $220 rn and I think it’s calling my name
We have content coming for this!
I was wondering if you could export and share the printer profile from Prussa Slicer so we can reuse it ?
I can, join our discord!
loyal.ms/discord
Hi, would X4 Pro line will kill its older sibling market itself which is X3 Pro because of the fast features with Klipper or because of it's priced very differently X3 Pro is still worth a lot ? Because the date of launch is too near that is very similar to Xiaomi/Realme branded Smartphones in releasing newer models. I absolutely loving X3 Pro and hoping to buy it and mod it with Klipper with raspberry pi someday because i already have it.
I don't think it will kill the X3 series. They are going to be complimentary of each other, meant for different budgets. I can't wait for the X4s to arrive so I can get some content created.
i think that the next gen should be core xz for bed slingers
Heck yeah!
And I just saw the x4 Pro now. I love how these companies are pushing out new printers like hotcakes
Yes! Isn’t it awesome!!!
Great vid. Can you please link to the colapsable sword? My son thinks its bad ass! Thanks
I’ll have to find if the sword is available somewhere else, it was a default print on the SD card.
@@LoyalMoses No worries then!! I didn't realize it was a default print! That's pretty awesome of them. Creality sends a cat 😄. Thanks again for the great content and appreciate the response! Have a good one broski!
i bought this printer ,first time 3d printer ,i messed up my printer by trying to update my firmware and now my printer doesnt do anything .can anyone help?
Oh no! Did you get it resolved?
@@LoyalMoses yes, artillery emailed me with directions on updating the software.had to take some stuff apart but got it up and running
WoW I was thinking 300+ that a GREAT Price.
I know! Crazy isn't it?!
How would this compare to the ender 3 v3 ke?
I am super excited to find out! We have a KE sitting here in the box that I haven't opened. We'll first do a video on it, then we will do a comparison with them head-to-head!
These machines are so exciting right now, tons of features at prices that are almost too good to be true.
This was my thought. Looks like great results compared to the enders.
Can I work with cura slicer on it?
Of course!
I thought: 300$ is nice for such a printer. it's a low ball value, but still.
but the price you named (spoiler for those who want to cheat) is very interesting. I might buy it.
The prices on these machines are getting super competitive!
@@LoyalMoses yes 😀
I have an ender 3 pro, bought when creality had the 5 year anniversary and offered discounts, for around the same value sidewinder wants now (again, spoiler),
I found out about creality because of a certain sexy cyborg and a video she did with a south african dude who lived in shenzhen (serpentza). had a very brief chat with her in one of her livestreams, essentially just told her, that I have the printer because of her... which is somewhat true, in 2019, there was just no printer in the price bracket I was willing to pay other than this one and I did not know creality.
what would you choose between Artillery Sidewinder X3 Pro and Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro? :D
Having never used the Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro, I can't really say. I do have a Neptune 3 Max and it is just an amazing machine. We printed some HUGE helmets on it, like REALLY HUGE -- comically oversized! Motion system is excellent, interface is great, it is a really nice machine.
@@LoyalMoses thank you :) I'm pretty sure that a vs by those 2 would be great ;)
Hi from Spain,
could you share the prusa slicer profile? I am having some problems with my X3 Pro. Also Artillery sends a version of Cura for PC and I am on Mac ;-(
Thanks in advance!
I’m on a Mac too! We share some of these things on our discord.
@@LoyalMoses How could I get them? I do not use Discord
That sexy HueForge displayed in the background made the the video! Jokes aside, this is a great video.
😁 Thanks Spann!
Marlin is over, Klipper has taken over ;-)
😳
The only think they had to change on the X2 was the bed rail, replace these crappy plastic rollers by a proper bal bearing rails combo. Adding speed where guideways are already not precise enought to max out the X2 possible speed is completely useless.
Cool!
No auto-z offset? I'll pass then. It's one of those features that I didn't think I needed, but after using my K1 and a friends A1 it just simplifies everything.
How's octoprint work with it? Does it have Host Action Commands enabled on the Marlin Firmware?
No auto-z on this machine, but it is their entry level machine, so that is not to be unexpected.
I do not know how well it can integrate with octoprint. I would imagine soon though that octoprint will become obsolete, as many of its features are simply being included in 3d printers stock now.
You were born in the wrong generation lol. You just remind me of a radio personality from the 90s for some reason.
Either way, love your videos man.
Thanks! 😆💜🔥
185€
230$
i'm thinking about 300-400 dollars
A lot of people guessing about the same!
@@LoyalMoses yeah i didn't expect it to be way cheaper
I'm guessing 250 to 300 USD.
I was wondering just a couple of days ago, what had become of Artillery.
Good guess!
OH! They are working on some great stuff. I am excited for the new year.
219$
😳🤔
$149?
Oh dang! That would be nice!
200
That is a great guess! Things are changing in our industry for sure.
250 euros
Did you already know!?
own one and the x2 bought both 4 Christmas 150 for the x2 and there brilliant@@LoyalMoses
AWESOME!
and im new to it just put them together and hit print no problems and i got to change the filament on the X2 with ease @@LoyalMoses
$199
That’s a pretty good guess!
@@LoyalMoses Thanks. I had an X2 and just thought they might go that route.
220$
That's a great guess! Did you already know?!
@@LoyalMoses in the basis yes I see these days a lot of those cheap printers $200-$300 if some $ run into me to buy second one printer
300 euros
What is the euro price right now for it?!
Id guess $250 on no knowledge
That’s a really good guess!
180€ with discount
That would be an amazing price!
249
That’s close!!! Wow. Did you already know?
@@LoyalMoses not the slightest clue, but I figured it had to be around that ender price range. My thought process was that the A1 series has pushed down pricing on pretty much everything that isn't on their level. Had this been released in May when I got my ender 3 V2 neo, I could have seen this machine come in at around the 330-350 price range.
DOA… so outdated features. Good luck to them
Completely inaccurate! This is an awesome machine for folks with a budget of $200!
