    Hope for some help here.

    Am considering a Kraken + X3Pro for my large scale Core-XY build but would also like a full graphical display.

    Can anyone help by telling me which Displays will go on a X3Pro (if any that is) Panacut's web page doesn't really help here.

    TIA

    You can use Viki from their page.

    On the back of your X3pro you can enable or disable the sdcard jumper. To use either the integrated card reader from x3, or the one from Viki. Use a switch instead of the jumper to use them both as you see fit.
    You can find more info about that jumper on YT.
    I know, support and documentation sucks, but they have great products.
    P.S. I'm building a core-xy too. How bigger scale you go with it?

    I have actually decided to go with a DUE and RADDS Board with Extension module.

    As for size it will be 400x400x500 initially but will be able to increase the Z to 800-850 at a later date if needed (Will just have to replace my 600 long smooth rods with longer ones can get upto 1 meter lengths quite easily. ( I am using 12mm rods by the way 4 of them one in each corner of the bed) I am also using TR10x2 Trap leadscrews in a triangular configuration driven by a NEMA23 and a Closed GT2 Belt around all 3.
