I'm tempted to go out and buy an Arduino and a G-shield for our Cube and just bypass the stock control system and use the existing motors. The existing Cube software is terrible, and the filament spools are expensive and too small.

Agreed. We have a CubeX Trio and the only way it is bearable to use is if we use Kisslicer and CubeItmod, which is an external slicer/plugin combination that you can import STL files into, change settings, and then convert the output into something the printer can understand. Not sure if it will work with your printer, but I would suggest looking in to it as it makes fine tuning and other stuff much easier and allows you to use non-cube filament on the printer.
