You probably have more control over your 1, 2 and 3rd fingers so use those to set the anchor, and then bring your pinky into the mix on the high E string as a final movement. If you practice this enough, you will eventually get comfortable with your pinky grabbing that last note on the high E string.
Thanks for tip, I'm getting better at it but switching between chords is still difficult.
