Just purchased a full Godox flash kit. Does this look like a good working set?

Closest thing they have at the moment is the ability for the GodoxPhoto app for iOS and Android store off the group on/off and M power ratio settings as presets that can be loaded. Unfortunately, the app cannot set HSS or TTL for groups.

The app really needs to be updated to duplicate the UI on their TTL triggers, now that the A1/A1 mini are no more its original design purpose for strobes doesn't really fit any of the current X-system devices that speak bluetooth (X2T, R2 Pro II).

Outside the US, it's a harder decision between the higher-end but older XPro and lower-end but newer X2T.

I wouldn't say the X2T is lower end. Just different.

Also, the bluetooth feature of the X2T makes it even more convenient to use than the XPro. Using a smartphone is simple and very effective, and negates the negative aspects of the smaller screen (which aren't all that bad to begin with).

See here the part about the app:

OK...my curiosity is piqued. I gotta try the app. BTW...your AD100P is pretty amazing kit, IMHO.

I really like it. The beercan form factor makes it easy to carry (it forst into any lens slot) and it pops powerful and fast flashes like a big boy.
