Product Description
X-Man Tornado V4 Flagship – Overview
The X-Man Tornado V4 Flagship is the latest evolution of the legendary Tornado line – a premium 3×3 magnetic speedcube that focuses on control, stability and consistency. With refined corner–core magnetisation, dual-adjustment tensioning and a sleek modern design, the Flagship version is an ideal choice for speedcubers who want a fast cube that still feels reliable in every solve.
Key Features
- Magnetic 3×3 speedcube designed by X-Man Design / QiYi.
- Balanced, controllable feel – fast enough for world-class solves but easy to keep under control.
- Corner–core and edge magnets for improved stability and auto-alignment on every turn.
- Dual-adjustment system (tensions + compression) so you can fine-tune the feel to your turning style.
- Premium surface finish with bright, high-contrast stickerless colours.
- Lightweight design that reduces fatigue during long sessions.
- Includes adjustment tools and accessories (contents may vary by batch).
Flagship vs Pioneer vs Enhanced
There are three main versions of the Tornado V4. The Flagship sits in the middle, offering a blend of performance and control that many cubers prefer.
| Feature | Tornado V4 Flagship | Tornado V4 Pioneer |
|---|---|---|
| Core system | Traditional spring-based core for a familiar, controllable feel. | Maglev system for reduced friction and extra speed. |
| Overall feel | Balanced & controllable – ideal all-rounder. | Very fast & lively – best for experienced solvers. |
| Best for | Cubers who want high performance without losing control. | Advanced speedcubers chasing PBs and records. |
Performance & Turning Feel
Out of the box, the Tornado V4 Flagship has a smooth, slightly soft turning feel with very strong stability. Corner cutting is excellent in both directions and the corner–core magnets help the cube “snap” cleanly into place, reducing lockups on high-TPS solves.
The dual-adjustment system lets you customise the cube in detail – you can tighten it for maximum control or loosen it for extra speed, then fine-tune the elasticity to get exactly the response you like.
Who Is the Tornado V4 Flagship For?
- Intermediate and advanced cubers who want a reliable main 3×3 for training and competitions.
- Solvers coming from older Tornado or Gan cubes who want stability without sacrificing speed.
- Anyone who finds maglev cubes a bit too wild but still wants top-tier performance.

FAQs
Is the Tornado V4 Flagship good for beginners?
Yes – if you want to invest in a high-end cube from the start, the Flagship is a great choice. It is more controllable than many maglev cubes and can be set up to feel very forgiving for newer solvers.
Should I get the Flagship or the Pioneer?
Choose the Flagship if you prefer a slightly more controlled, traditional feel with springs. Choose the Pioneer if you like very fast, low-friction cubes and you are comfortable handling the extra speed.
Can I use this cube in official competitions?
Absolutely. The Tornado V4 Flagship is fully legal for WCA competitions and is already being used by many top speedcubers.

Returns Policy
Returns
If the item is faulty:
If you find a fault with the product within 30 days that significantly restricts your ability to use it you may request to return it for fixing or a replacement if fixing is not possible. Once you have provided reasonable evidence that the product is faulty and cannot easily be fixed then you can return it to 90 Culley Court, Peterborough, PE2 6WA
I will then attempt to fix it myself, usually I will be able to easily fix it and can then send it back to you quickly, if I am unable to fix it then I can offer a replacement of the product or a refund or similar product if the item is no longer in stock.
Please note that if a cube pops, this is not a reasonable justification for a return, all good cubes have the potential to pop occasionally, if it happens frequently you should consider tightening the tensions or turning more smoothly. Learning to fix popped cubes is an important part of your growth and development as a cuber, it is a very useful skill to develop, I have some tutorials on fixing pops on my youtube channel and there are obviously many more online.
