For the those interested in a budget oriented, easily DIY built, 60% keyboard with USB C instead of the ‘standard’ TRRS cable.

New version fits existing plates (and 3D Designs) and have the same options for OLED & Encoders as before. Sandwich case plates are available in black & white, both with optional ears to tent/tilt.

No, this is not asshole design. If the oil port was sticking further out, it’s gets knocked off if you lay the bike down. And then you have no oil at all, and a blown up motor.

It’s by good design the oil port is recessed. Yes it’s annoying to use a funnel, but it’s the preferable option.

Well the problem with that is when you lay the bike down, the oil port gets shaved off and you lose all your oil. Don’t ask me how I know.

So yeah, it’s a PITA to use a funnel, but it’s still the preferable option.

What am I missing, how is this done?

 

Common core functionality:

  • Hot-swap 4x12 Ortho
  • RP2040, 4 MB flash
  • USB type C
  • Full per key RGB
  • Optional encoders on all four corners
  • Optional 1x2u & 2x2u layout

Option 1:

  • North-facing keys
  • Fits existing JJ40/BM40 cases

Option 2:

  • South-facing keys
  • Needs dedicated case design (possibly USB daughterboard)

Option 3:

  • South-facing keys, compromise on the two top row keys by the USB connector.
  • Fits existing JJ40/BM40 cases

Actually, I prefer liftoff

That’s not he projected range shown on the display. That’s the actual range the battery will give you.

They temporarily removed a bit of the safety margin built in to reduce battery wear, allowing people to get out of harms way without a stop to charge if they were on the limit. But only for people moving away from The affected area, etc. so smart and helpful.
