Q1: What about other layouts?
A1: We now have ANSI, ISO, HHKB layouts. We’re sticking with standard layouts for now, as we can’t add multiple layouts to the same PCB as the hotswap sockets can’t overlap. Trying to cover all possible layouts would be impossible so it’s standard for now. if there are enough people wanting other layouts, we may look into them.
Q2: What happened to the upside down esc and 1 keys?
A2: It’s due to the placement of the USB connector following the universal GH60 standard. The hotswap sockets can’t fit otherwise!
Q3: Is it difficult to collect all the parts needed for a full keyboard and to put it together using this PCB?
A3: Any other 60% case you find that has standard mount holes, and any standard plate, will work with this PCB
Q4: Does it have underglow?
A4: No as the power draw for all the in-switch LED’s is quite high already. There are exposed pins to add underglow RGB strips, but this is experimental and up to the user.
Q4: Can I set the RGB?
A4: Yes! It comes with different styles as well as colour picker. QMK community is working toward a hosted software to do that as well but its still under development.
Q5: USB-C? or Mini
A5: Mini for now
Q6: Do i need diodes, resistors, etc?
A6: The board is fully complete and ready to go!

This will lower the shipping costs considerably.
