Godox issues with the R5 are only if TTL and HSS are used at the same time, right?

I can say that because it works. For me with the R2 Pro II the flash doesn't go full power, it flashes +3. If I do -3 it exposes perfectly well. I shoot manual anyway so this issues doesn't affect me but there's a workaround as long as you don't need negative compensation.

I use a V1 Godox. When I got it I worked with it and Godox's top remote unit as well as on the camera. I don't do HSS so let me qualify that. I found by setting it to -7 with TTL it was dead on every time. So I'm a happy camper unlike those that are having issues here. I suppose with many products they don't meet the expectations or needs of some. In my case as you expressed it does a fine job and I wouldn't go with any other flash in it's place. I'm on a R5 as well.

Name the gear and I've probably owned it and used it.
