Has anyone managed to get an Xbox Series X controller working wirelessly on the DC?

I've got a Brook Wingman SD updated to the latest firmware connected to an 8BitDo Wireless USB Adapter 2 which supports Bluetooth LE, the protocol used by the Xbox Series X controllers.

However, I can't get my Series X controller to pair wirelessly with the DC - has anyone managed to do this or does the Wingman SD need to support Bluetooth LE too?

It will work with this adapter when set to x-input. Make sure its firmware is up to date.

Disappointingly, the 8BitDo Wireless USB Adapter 2 does not work with the WingmanSD.

Thanks, will look into that Mayflash device - shame the 8BitDo adaptor doesn't work though.
