I have not had much luck with my "Godox F" working correctly. The Nikon version in manual works the best for me on my fuji X-E3

Have you undated the firmware?

It been awhile, but I've played around with my XT2 camera and Godox X1TF controller with remote TT685F flash. Some strange and intermittent issues led me to discover that the contacts on the camera were not making good connection with the shoe-mounted controller.

Ok Thanks, it's just the weirdest thing when I put fresh batteries in the cam and Battery grip I am good for about 200 shots, then all the sudden the camera flash setting goes into TTL when it was in Manual flash setting. The controller Xpro is in Manual and the flash is Manual and they maintain manual Happen to me at a wedding and I couldn't get it figured out had to shoot in TTL and just adj the TTL power Might just with to a pocket wizard.

I have not used Godox with an X-T2 but with an X-T20 I had no problems. The only time I have ever had Godox issues was when I used rechargeable batteries in the trigger (voltage is too low and causes unexplained issues)

I loved my Godox flashes when I shot Nikon so it seemed a natural choice to use them with Fuji. I ran into multiple firmware issues and eventually sold them. Not only were there firmware issues, when I tried to get support I ran into a maze is obstetrical. Support is only through the reseller. After convincing the reseller that I knew what I was doing he brought my issues to Godox who's response was denial.

If you are using Godox flashes on with longer lenses such as the 100-400 expect issues.
Remote TTL is hit not always correct.
If you place the flash in manual and the camera goes to sleep, the flash reverts to automatic

That's my list and I bet there are many more issues.

Fuji's flashes are a delight yet wimpy. I have a Nissin i60A Flash that is powerful, small and works well with my X-T3

I have zero issues with off-camera flash with my godox trigger and flashes. Just need to upgrade my flashes to one of those larger ones for more power to take advantage of HSS
