Wish the bottom was a bit sleeker, the numerous exposed screws and excessive number of rubber feet makes it look very busy.
If you could have one long strip style foot for the top and bottom edges that covered those screws, I think that would be optimal.
I much rather you put the money for silicon gaskets into moulding those feet instead, if given the option.
Regarding changing black to something else, perhaps Navy would work instead if you're looking to change that?
All that said, other than the bottom being busy, I love the look of the Rev4 renders.
I tried to address the bottom being too busy in the new version shown in the renders. I think in person it will be alot cleaner looking than the old version.
I dont think a geon style bumpon is something I can offer unfortunately. The screwing on the bottom and the weight are different due to the internal workings.
The molds for the feet cost essentially nothing to make. The plate gaskets are more expensive since the leafs on the plate are different shapes and sizes. I am totally willing to invest the money in those molds, just thought I should poll demand before doing so.
I will consider navy. I personally like navy as well.
The IC form doesn't allow you to select more than one plate type, although the question is what types of material do you prefer.
This was a mistake and I have updated it. You should be able to edit your response.
I love 1800 and its a shame that we don't see more of this form factor.
2 questions:
Is it possible to show the internals of this board?
Any price estimates?
No estimates yet. I want to get some international vendors lined up and get things requoted for the prototype 4 design before I announce any pricing. I will only say that 618 is not a cheap board to manufacture so do not expect it to be priced as a budget board.
I will provide a shot of the internals once I order prototype round 4 (a week or so).
