OMFG what a rush :(
OMFG what a rush :(*shaking*
Did I make it?! Lol
Can't wait to know if I made it. The shipping address part got me kinda confused because there wasn't a field for your city.

Thats what I did, we have the same address scheme haha. I guess were fineCan't wait to know if I made it. The shipping address part got me kinda confused because there wasn't a field for your city.
what did you write in there ? is it right if i write in there the street + hous number and city ?
so my first duck gb ever, how do i know if i am in ?From what I gathered you wait until you get invoiced or until elton posts the spreadsheet.

Try submitting an order, since we dont know if its full yet.
Form still alives @@ Cant believe it !!!!
my wallet hates me :(Your avatar is my picture right?
Figures I went offline 20 minutes before this post was made last night. Put an order in just now, so fingers are crossed.
Just wanted to let everyone know that we've since passed the 100 mark. For those on the fence, please submit now to be on the queue in case someone cancels out - people indeed have cancelled out. The form will be closed later today and the public sheet will be updated tonight hopefully. Stay tuned!Can you tell us the number of people submit at the moment :cool:

Do we know how long it took to be sold out?
Thats quite along time. I wonder why there wasnt more demand.Do we know how long it took to be sold out?
I would say, based on comments of some users, that it might have filled within the first hour but there are people who made the list that made mention here 2 hours after it opened that they just signed. Based on that info, I would say this list has people up to about the 2.5 hour mark.
Do we know how long it took to be sold out?I filled out the form approx. 3h into the GB, so not the "usual" flash sale
Not sure if it was just me but this one seemed to happen real quick an there wasn't much light shed on the GB, maybe I'm wrong though... Only way i knew of JF was from following the LSv3 thread an ducks IG.. But I usually browse GH on mobile so new ICs sometimes are not even seen.Do we know how long it took to be sold out?I filled out the form approx. 3h into the GB, so not the "usual" flash sale

My thoughts are this:
1. As mentioned below, there was not as much lead up to this one. If you weren't really paying attention to GH or other threads, it kind of snuck up on you.
2. The market is SATURATED with numerous boards/sets/artisans right now so people are reeling from what to get on board. MD has multiple sets like Laser and other popular boards right now, numerous GBs for other nice boards out there, just finishing halloween artisan sales, etc.
3. The cost for this board is pricey out the gate. ~450 to even step to the plate isn't easy for everyone to swallow. Then you have choices of adding plate/pcb for spare, shipping, PP fees...some of us are over 600 into this GB alone. (Still worth it)
4. Black Friday/Xmas buying. A LOT of people have joined secret santas that they have to buy for, have family to start shopping for, traveling for holidays...then Black Friday was yesterday, the day of the GB, so a lot of people were picking up whatever deals they wanted to on those sales that are not mech related and might have either missed, thought they didn't have a chance, or simply couldn't cough up here as well.
Just my 2 cents.
This is traditionally a bad time of year for GBs. $450+ is a lot of Christmas presents.Yeah $600USD (all in) in Canadian pesos is about $800, which is probably 4x some people's full Xmas budget lol.. When my bro and gf heard that I was spending that on a keeb with no caps and no switches... When I already have other keebs... An decently priced one, coming in the mail lol.. We probably had the funniest conversation about keyboards (ie. What's wrong with the ones you have here type of convo), let's just say that they think I have a serious problem.
January and March-May is usually the best time to run a GB, since people have holiday money, or tax return money.

Invoices?
Just wondering why jet fire costs alot more than lsv3 and eagle, viper? Price keep rasing up :(Because its bigger and requires way more material probably.

Every other GB runner does it, duck is late to the party.
Exactly this, the bottom an both top plate have that much more detail an complication, lsv3 shines the led from the sides on your table where as the jf has a full bottom, then the top plate vs lsv3 top plate is a whole nother story. There's that much more cnc work an aluminum on the case. Makes sense to me...Just wondering why jet fire costs alot more than lsv3 and eagle, viper?

I highly doubt that is the primary driver.
My understanding is Duck had this design done something like a couple of years ago, but the project was put on hold because the factory didn't want to do it due to fabrication complexity (translates into time, $). The factory apparently signed up after much prodding and negotiating.
This board is significantly bigger and far more complex than LSV3. Considering that, I don't see much room for "supply and demand" increase in the 16% price change which I thought reasonable.
This also is the first full layout board by Duck, which I think is a big deal.
Agree with OracleKev, price is not bad considering the complexity and size.
Only thing i wonder, is there any plans for bags, simular to kins? Fantastic both for transportation and storage when not in use. I know i would love a Duck-bag and would happily pay extra for that!

How come the my deadline is 11/28/17 thats like due by today? That will be wayy to fast :(
Why is the order form still open if max orders (and beyond) have reached? Are all new orders send directly to nirvana or are they waiting to fill canceled slots?

Good news! SA on 11 degrees is actually not that terrible!Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/4qLwdtP.jpg)
Bad news! With SA caps (Cherry is fine) the bottom row, especially the space bar, scratch on the inside of the bezel. It appears there is not enough clearance, might wanna inform Duck on that and keep a bit more distance in future designs. I'll probably have to swap back to GMK tonight :( Anyone else with the same problem or any ideas for solution? I might instead also just use the GMK Oblivion white spacebar, the modifiers are okay. RIP beautiful spacebar thock.

Turns out it was just me being dumb. All I had to do was open it up again, loosen the screws of the plate and move it a bit further up as I had plenty of clearance at the top row.
I am beginning to worry deadline is almost here I made payment and has not been updated on the main form. Anyone else in this situation? I’ll be pretty sad if something comes up and I miss out due to issues with processing that I’ve been asking about for over a week.Dont worry dude, you’re good

Can someone explain the differences between this and the blackbird?F keys my friend
Hi all, hope you enjoyed your holidays! You have up until Friday, January 5, 2018 to make any further changes to your order. After that period, no more changes are allowed.Filled out the form, can you combine this and my first order for cheaper shipping? Thanks
For those who are interested in the joining the GB, this is your last chance. There are approximately 20 slots available. The form is here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScZGWhbuTmxWAdJPAyWBuFNb1Bm7l8GjSXvJy1ksl-ZhDt1JA/viewform
You have up until Friday, January 5, 2018 to join, otherwise, we will proceed with the spots that have been paid and all others will be dropped.

Sorry, I assumed from memory it was 9009 in the new photos - it wasn't. I just want to see a silver topped board with some keycaps on, but if Duck doesn't have one built or the time for more photos that's fine. Would need to be before the cutoff on thursday for changes though :D

Any possibility of additional anodization colors? Or perhaps an option to get it "naked" to anodize ourselves?I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for other colors. The last few duck boards have all only had the option of black or silver. Much less complexity that way. Who knows about an unanodized case but my guess would be a no on that.
Why do people get extra pcbs? In case they go bad?

Hello All... I'm going to try to tackle a weight project. No guarantees yet, but I've reached out to Duck and Elton to see if there's a chance at getting the weight files to start from. Also been chatting with Merlin because he did a great job with the Blackbird weights and don't want to step on his toes, he's all good with it- has other projects of his own going, so I'll see what we can do with some weights here. :thumb:
I'll post updates and if it all goes forward/ post a proper IC/ GB because I would plan to do weights for Eagle/ Viper as well as Jetfire to do it all in one fell swoop (and not clutter the board threads). Fingers crossed.

That's a surprise... all my other Duck boards have been mini. Was the blackbird micro too? I need new cables.
Can someone confirm what type of USB connector the Jetfire has? I haven't seen a picture that clearly shows.
I asked duck on instagram, for the KR boards it was micro usb. I'm assuming it will be the same for the GH destined boards.

New cables indeed. I've never had a micro on a keyboard before. Kind of weird it's not mini or type c

Hello All... I'm going to try to tackle a weight project. No guarantees yet, but I've reached out to Duck and Elton to see if there's a chance at getting the weight files to start from. Also been chatting with Merlin because he did a great job with the Blackbird weights and don't want to step on his toes, he's all good with it- has other projects of his own going, so I'll see what we can do with some weights here. :thumb:
I'll post updates and if it all goes forward/ post a proper IC/ GB because I would plan to do weights for Eagle/ Viper as well as Jetfire to do it all in one fell swoop (and not clutter the board threads). Fingers crossed.
Wonder how many people are going to click this seeing it's been updated. Only to see this post of me stating how I can't wait for this thing to ship. Sorry!
Hello All,
While the thread is a-bumpin', thought here is a small weight update...
I have received the weight files from Duck for Jetfire, LSv3 and Eagle/ Viper!! Duck is a stud. I'm waiting on a couple of quotes and then after sorting out a few logistics and choosing a manufacturer, I think we can run some weights. I'll post a proper IC for all three sometime in the next week or two, I'd imagine as to not clog any of Elton's threads... but it looks good for weights happening, stay tuned. :thumb: :thumb:
Hello All,Amazing, I think I say this for everyone.. Thankyou very much mate!

Unless you mix the 2nd option with the 4th option and use 6.25u spacebar but I have no idea if that is possible.

Brass is probably the only material that will get enough people to join the GB for it to be worth it.
For me, it is Brass or nothing.
#43 , so i expected it happen soon :)#49 here, so touching, I’m in queue now
What's the normal amount of time between first and second batch shipping?
People like to speculate that brass/stainless plate is best for linear switches. Aluminum is best for tactile. No one cares about clicky.
I have yet to find a measurable correlation between plate and switch type making a difference one way or the other.

Thanks! I think that put it into bootloader mode (none of the layer LEDs lit up), but I still get a DFU programmer not found error even with it in bootloader mode. I have Flip installed, do I need to do anything else with it? My O2D keymapper version is 1.12.675 if that matters also.

Have you installed the proper drivers for the board? In device manager, when you enter bootloader mode, you should see a device show up as Atmega32U4 if you have the proper driver installed. For more detailed instructions, I'll link the page I used to make sense of this process:

Jetfire is 20.5x6.25 units (~390x119mm), whereas TX1800 is 20.5x7.25u (~390x138mm), so add bezel thickness onto that.

not normal but you won't ever see that when the board is assembled.
Last week I had some time and added tmk support for winkeyless b.87 and duck jetfire pcbs to my repo. It's a first shot and not much tested but both boards work fine so far. I guess you'll see qmk ports soon. Have fun with your boards!

Hey guys, I just received a jetfire kit. Have not soldered in switches/LEDs yet
When I plug in the PCB it says "Unknown USB Device needs more power than the port can supply" and then I need to reboot my computer before it will recognize a keyboard again.
Any idea what is going on/how I can fix it? Thanks!

This might not be the right place to ask but can someone point me into the right direction to solve this issue.
I finally have the time to assemble my Orion V2 and when I was examining the PCB (plugging into the PC), it says "USB device not recognized" and a random number of RGB leds will flash (blue) once after plugging in.
I have tried another PC and the same issue persists.

You would need to install the ATm32U4DFU driver manually. I believe you can install the drivers manually by following these steps:
1. Install Atmel Flip: http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/JRE%20-%20Flip%20Installer%20-%203.4.7.112.exe
2. Open Device Manager
3. Unplug Jetfire. Hold down Home button (its the very top key above the arrow cluster), then plug the micro usb cable in. You should now be in firmware mode (underglow light should not show)
4. In Device Manager you should see ATm32U4DFU. It might show up as 'unknown usb device (device descriptor failed)
5. Right click it>Update Driver>Browse My Computer for Driver Software
6. Navigate to the USB folder inside the Flip folder you installed in step 2. It should be something like C:\Program Files (x86)\Atmel\Flip 3.4.7\usb
7. Click Next. The driver for ATm32U4DFU should now install.
I used qmk toolbox to flash the hex file onto the jetfire.
in order to make use of the 02d software, you have to change your Windows locale to Korea. I also had to change the windows display language to Korean as well. After I was able to use the POS 02d software.
dated guide, but should still apply for the jetfire: http://www.adamfalwell.com/projects/octagon/assets/-simplified-guide--duck-pcb-flash-firmware---keymapping.docx
you can get the latest 02d software here (latest changelog 5/11/18):

I planned to use Ergo clear for my JF, unfortunately the ergo clear is infamous with pulling the stem out and the plate that goes with JF does not support open top.
So TL;DR : Default JF plate does not support open top switch and does not ergo clear- friendly, so one of my friend re-draw the plate for JF which support open top and we're working on the brass plate for JF project.
here is some pictures of the prototype , which is made by plastic to save the cost :Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/I9I9Tfh.jpg)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/q1SvhO9.jpg)

I have another question and would really appreciate it if anyone can help.
I’m having issues with my PCB, the leds on the back from 1-7 lights up but the rest don’t.
I’m guessing there is a connection problem from LED 7 to 8? But I can’t tell. I have some pictures here if one of the pros can help me out I would GREATLY appareicate it!

Trace your pads (LEDs and switch pads) and see if you have a loose pad. A loose connection can mess up those SMDs.

i wouldn't know where to begin with this. some of the solder pads have been lifted (the status led indicators) so it may be due to that. but if that were the case wouldn't none of the LED underglows work? i figure this is some kind of firmware related issue.

For all those tired of using O2D software, I bring good news! With many thanks to xauser and his TMK port along with ctzn_voyager for shipping me his Duck Jetfire, I successfully ported the Duck Jetfire over to QMK and is also now supported in QMK Configurator.

This has worked pretty well on my(ctzn_voyager's) Jetfire. I'd appreciate any input from other owners if you have time! Thank you very much.

Anyone experience only partial SMD Leds working? This has happened to me and I cannot figure out why the rest aren't working. Here is a picture.Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/HqBFMBI.png)
Hey guys - I got my jetfire fully assembled and working. I also got it ported over to QMK when it was built. My only question is: how can i control the underglow LED's? Right now they're just the standard pulsing rainbow, but I'd like to make it solid purple or pink.
Alrighty, I got mine working. My builder never ported it to QMK, which is why what i was trying wouldn't work haha.
Got the RGB LED keys bound to a function layer and changed the default colors in O2D to what I wanted.
Looks like my only problem now is one LED in the front not firing up:Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/vb1YWMk.jpg)
All Jetfires have that dead zone even with all LEDs working.Alrighty, I got mine working. My builder never ported it to QMK, which is why what i was trying wouldn't work haha.

Thankls! I was about to open the whole thing up again haha. A bit disappointing but fine in the long run.

All because of this one microchip lol https://imgur.com/cDavtEC
So, does anybody know that five lights on the top and three lights which between the F row and escape key stand for? And how can I control them?

They're indicator lights. You can control them by hitting caps/num/scroll lock.
They're the layer indicator lights. You can define multiple functions to keys on the board, logically separated into layers.
Take a look at the QMK firmware port on GitHub for more info, sorry just heading into work so can't explain further right now.
Cheers!

To be fair, it was a partial answer. The question asked about both led clusters....So, does anybody know that five lights on the top and three lights which between the F row and escape key stand for? And how can I control them?

This is incorrect. The 3 lights next to ESC are the indicator lights.
What he is asking about are the layer indicators above the frow keys.

Hey guys, I just received a jetfire kit. Have not soldered in switches/LEDs yet
When I plug in the PCB it says "Unknown USB Device needs more power than the port can supply" and then I need to reboot my computer before it will recognize a keyboard again.
Any idea what is going on/how I can fix it? Thanks!This might not be the right place to ask but can someone point me into the right direction to solve this issue.
I finally have the time to assemble my Orion V2 and when I was examining the PCB (plugging into the PC), it says "USB device not recognized" and a random number of RGB leds will flash (blue) once after plugging in.
I have tried another PC and the same issue persists.
You would need to install the ATm32U4DFU driver manually. I believe you can install the drivers manually by following these steps:
1. Install Atmel Flip: http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/JRE%20-%20Flip%20Installer%20-%203.4.7.112.exe
2. Open Device Manager
3. Unplug Jetfire. Hold down Home button (its the very top key above the arrow cluster), then plug the micro usb cable in. You should now be in firmware mode (underglow light should not show)
4. In Device Manager you should see ATm32U4DFU. It might show up as 'unknown usb device (device descriptor failed)
5. Right click it>Update Driver>Browse My Computer for Driver Software
6. Navigate to the USB folder inside the Flip folder you installed in step 2. It should be something like C:\Program Files (x86)\Atmel\Flip 3.4.7\usb
7. Click Next. The driver for ATm32U4DFU should now install.
I used qmk toolbox to flash the hex file onto the jetfire.
in order to make use of the 02d software, you have to change your Windows locale to Korea. I also had to change the windows display language to Korean as well. After I was able to use the POS 02d software.
dated guide, but should still apply for the jetfire: http://www.adamfalwell.com/projects/octagon/assets/-simplified-guide--duck-pcb-flash-firmware---keymapping.docx
you can get the latest 02d software here (latest changelog 5/11/18):

Has anyone that's using QMK on their jetfire been able to get the layer indicator LED's to function? I'd greatly appreciate a PM if you have.

Good question, curious to know as well :) I didn't get them working either, nor the backlights (leds, rgb underglow works).

I'm confused by the last segment of your message. You say the backlights don't work, but yet the leds and underglow works. Which leds are you referring to?
^ yeah the layer indicator LED's do not work on QMK.
Additionally I am having issues with an alt/fn/ctrl to the right of the space not having the correct wiring. Seems to me QMK for jetfire is more of a beta solution at the moment.

I apologize. I only had 1 Duck Jetfire to test with. I posted the initial firmware in August of 2018 and returned it the following month when I didn't get much feedback. If you're up for it I'd love to tinker around with your board to get it working. Also in general, QMK Layer indicators are a custom feature that have been written on a per keymap level, happy to write you one if you can send me a keymap and a means to properly test it.
