I checked out the Uwell Rafale X yesterday. It's potentially very interesting. The center "neutral post" allows for some atypical builds, such as a quad-coil setup that isn't crazy low resistance. What do you think of uwell's new dripper?

I think this will be something great I got some stupid low .07 framed staples from my boy at the shop I've only been able to run them single now I can get above .1 with both this is a game changer imho

I can't believe this rda isn't getting more discussion! Maybe because Uwell didn't blast it out there? I really like what they did on the deck, just wish it was a little bigger. To clarify width wise. Without the neutral you could fit massive builds. But I'm more interested in the series/parallel builds. From what I see it will be tight for cotton when building regular horizontal s/p builds.
Anyone out there have any thoughts?!?

Had to pull the trigger and order one of these from STS this morning. 
So the center pin is isolated, allowing you to run coils in series...
I guess this just begs the question: why not just wind coils that are twice as long and not have to screw aound with additional coil legs and connections? A 2p/2s coil setup is the same as a 2p setup in the same gauge, just with more leg loss.
2p/2s != 4p

Here's a chat with Uwell Leo about the Rafale X, as well as the black and gold versions of the Rafale sub-ohm tank.
Ok have mine in hand. Just got it today so haven't played much. I see why some say the neutral is worrisome since it seem wobbly but it's OK. Threw a quick quad s/p Nichrome build in it and it works well so far. Machining and o rings are all good.
Oh and not sure about the spit back piece in the dt yet, doesn't bother me really other than having to pull it out to drip.

This rda is so under appreciated it's sad. It's the most innovative product that has come out in a very long time. An absolute must for series mod users. I have a dual 5 wrap 22 gauge anarchist build right now. An absolutely suicidal build on a cricket with any other dripper on the market. It's reading .5 ohms and hitting so amazingly. Best 30 bucks I ever spent on vaping
I absolutely love this rda. I'm able to run 5/6 wrap alien coils in it and have it come out safe enough to run on a series box (the main reason I bought it). To make it even better the flavor is great regardless of airflow, with no tip, and I haven't had mine heat up all. Seriously considering picking up a second one.
Well just built mine.
Used ss316l.
2s/2p, 2.5mm, contact coil, .47 ohm-.5 ohm depending on device.
Using it on the rx200 right now. First time I have ever really "needed" to go over 100w in recent memory.
Settled in at 111w for now. Warm vape, about as dense as a crown tank with .25 coil at 60w 480f on the sx.
While I can see some of the more artistic coil builders making use of the "netural" post, for me so far it is just a novelty. It is well made esp for the price (30$ ish) there are better ways to get the vape I want. But still thats just my first impression maybe this will inspire me some how to try out some type of fancier build.
Love the deck space.

Better to wick 4 small coils than 2 large ones.
I've had the Rafale-X for a day now, nice dripper, deep juice well and very versatile. Currently I have 4 316L core claptons (26/34) at around .4ohm.
Not my prettiest work, but really nice once it ramps up -
I've since moved the wattage to 175W, ramping up is not really a problem now. I might take another wack at wicking it differently, I think it would perform even better if half of each coil was not covered with cotton.
My next build will prob go back to normal dual coils. It isn't that I have a problem with vaping @175W, I just don't like swapping batteries that often.

Mine currently has 4 standard like your first pics. But when I wicked I fed straight from coil to coil in the middle. So only the outer ends go to the well. Wicks well (ymmv depending on wick etc...) and has more airflow as you mentioned.
I was waiting for it to be dry so I could rewick it like that, but went with the vertical coils and I am not disappointed at all with the results.
