Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)QIDI X-Plus 3, listed in QIDI navigation as X-Plus3[1][2]Voron 0.2, current revision R1. Sold under kit vendors' names: "Voron V0.2-S1 (R1) 3D Printer Kit by LDO & HoneyBadger", "Voron 0.2 R1 Latest Version CoreXY 3D Printer Kit" (Formbot)[3][4]
Release date (announcement and actual shipping)Not published by QIDI on the pages checked (Aug 2026)[1][2]Not documented
Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry)$699 on QIDI's official US page, which routes purchases to its AliExpress and Amazon stores; checked Aug 2026. 3DJake lists the model as sold out[2][1]There is no single price: Voron is an open design and kits come from several vendors. Formbot's kit is $328.06 (was $349.00, 6% off), in stock, checked Aug 2026. The LDO & HoneyBadger V0.2-S1 kit is $639.99 but sold out. Neither figure includes printed parts unless the option is selected[3][4]
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)Two headline-speed figures circulate for this model: QIDI's own US page says 600 mm/s and 35 mm3/s, 3DJake's spec table says <=500 mm/s and 30 mm3/s. This is exactly the kind of sibling contamination the 3-series suffers (X-Max 3 is 600 mm/s / 35 mm3/s). Siblings: X-Max 3 (325x325x315, 900 W) and X-Smart 3 (175x180x170, no chamber heat, 300 °C)[1][2][5][6]Two things get conflated. First, revision: R1 is the current one, adding a filament-runout sensor, MR85 bearings and fastener changes. Second, kit vendor: the LDO/HoneyBadger S1 kit ships an SKR Pico, E3D Revo, HoneyBadger dual-sided PEI/CF bed and 200 W supply, while the Formbot kit ships a TZ V6 or Dragon hotend and a 150 W supply, so hotend and PSU specs are vendor-specific, not model-specific. Printed parts are an extra on both[3][4]
Physical & Frame
Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable280 x 280 x 270 mm advertised[1][2]120 x 120 x 120 mm[3][4]
Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)511 x 527 x 529 mm[1]Not documented
Net weight (kg)24.3 kg net[1]Not documented
Frame construction & materialAll-metal frame per QIDI's US page; no further breakdown published[2]Aluminium-extrusion CoreXY frame with acrylic panels (LDO kit); the LDO/HoneyBadger build uses a 100 mm top hat. X axis on a genuine HIWIN rail, Y and Z on HoneyBadger stainless rails[3]
Enclosure: open / enclosed; panel material; door/lidFully enclosed with a heated chamber[1][2]Enclosed by acrylic panels in the LDO kit[3]
Passive chamber temperature reached (if enclosed; measured values preferred)65 °C, independent chamber heating (manufacturer claim)[1][2]Not documented
Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)CoreXY[1]CoreXY with the build plate moving in Z[3][4]
X-axis guide type (rods / linear rails / V-wheels; size)Linear optical axis of high-strength steel[1]Genuine HIWIN linear rail on X in the LDO kit[3]
Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlashDouble Z axis[1]Not documented
Speed & Acceleration
Max print speed (claimed, mm/s)Conflicting manufacturer claims: QIDI's US page says 600 mm/s, 3DJake's spec table says <=500 mm/s. The lower, more conservative figure is used as the sortable value[1][2]250 mm/s max print speed, 300 mm/s max travel (Formbot kit listing). This is a kit-vendor figure, not a Voron Design specification[4]
Max acceleration (claimed, mm/s²)20,000 mm/s2 (manufacturer claim)[2]Not documented
Max volumetric flow claimed (mm³/s)Conflicting: 30 mm3/s (3DJake) vs 35 mm3/s (QIDI US page). Lower figure used[1][2]Not documented
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameHigh-flow direct-drive extruder, 1.75 mm filament[1][2]Direct drive in a Mini Stealthburner toolhead with a picobilical board and umbilical cable (LDO kit)[3]
Hotend & Nozzle
Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?)Ceramic heating core. Copper-alloy nozzle head for normal materials, hardened-steel nozzle head for abrasives. 0.4 mm stock, 0.2/0.6/0.8 mm optional[1]Kit-dependent: E3D Revo (Voron edition) in the LDO kit; TZ V6, Dragon standard-flow or Dragon high-flow in the Formbot kit[3][4]
Max nozzle temp claimed AND firmware max temp limit (both values)<=350 °C claimed[1][2]300 °C on the Formbot kit listing. The LDO kit's E3D Revo has its own limit, not stated on the listing[4]
Heated Bed & Surface
Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limit<=120 °C claimed[1][2]110 °C (Formbot kit listing)[4]
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedDouble-sided flexible magnetic RF plate[1]HoneyBadger dual-sided P-series plate in the LDO kit: smooth black PEI on one face, carbon fibre on the other, on a Kirigami mount with an edge-to-edge polyimide film heater[3]
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Automatic bed levelling; probe technology not named[2]Not documented
Filament Handling & Detection
Filament runout sensor (type, location)Filament detection fitted; type and location not published[1]Not documented
Electronics & Power
Mainboard model & MCU (exact chip markings if teardowns exist)Not documentedKit-dependent. LDO kit: SKR Pico (LDO Edition) with a Raspberry Pi 4B as host[3]
Host computer (SoC, RAM, storage) if firmware runs on embedded LinuxCortex-A53 64-bit at 1.5 GHz, 1 GB DDR3, 8 GB eMMC[1][2]Not documented

Calibration Routines & QoL
Assembly level & time from unbox to first printNot documentedSelf-assembly kit. Printed parts are not included in the LDO kit (sourced separately, e.g. through Voron's Print It Forward); the Formbot kit offers them as an option[3][4]
Reliability, Support & Ecosystem
Warranty length & support reputation (evidence, not vibes)1-year coverage (QIDI standard store terms)[7]Not documented

Manufacturer claims, independent measurements, packages and test conditions retain their source wording. FDM linear speed and resin vertical speed use different units and are not directly comparable. Unknown values are marked “Not documented”. Prices and source dates remain historical snapshots; check the linked guide for product details. Differences highlight text, not a universal winner.
