Is there ISO support? After a quick search in the IC, I think this was never answered.

Can someone clarify the part about +$10USD for aluminum plate. I'm a bit dense reading the info and not getting what's the default plate, is it the acrylic?

Does anyone know when these are estimated to ship?
Thanks for the infoDoes anyone know when these are estimated to ship?
According to Elton's previous posts about Duck boards, it looks like the time from invoice closing to shipping out is 6-7 months, so that would be my best guess
Is this keyboard has in-switch RGB as well?
Does anyone know how the anodizing in the Jetfire turned out? More similar to the recent group buys or the ones from before?
No bottom weight?
What's the expected weight of this bad boy?

This board will be perfect for video editing and CAD work. The left macro keys are perfectly placed.Or even playing mmo's I cant reach 7-0 holding alt or ctrl but this allows it... only thing is finding keycaps

How? Starting with a 1u 0, once you get to 6 and 7 the rows won't match

what style plate is everyone going for?
Assuming am in, went with alumnium. Have a board with steel plate, not a fan it just feels too harsh.yeah, that was my experience with my past board with ss.
First time ordering through GH - will we be getting a confirmation that we were part of he order?There will be a spreadsheet posted after orders are in. Your username will be listed on there if you made it within the stipulated number of units. The ordering is FCFS.
Surprised this board is not getting more attention. 68%+ board is considered passé now?
I know, but I get the impression people get hot&bothered whenever one of these kmac mini/RS78 type get posted. I know I do =p

I do get it ;D Just to me it resembles a left handed TKL more than Mini. Basically, it's damn unique.
well despite my ongoing desire to move all my boards to QMK I've (hopefully) jumped in on this on - tap/hold functionality is not so critical with all these keys to put macros on :-)
You mind telling us how many were ordered so far elton?

Definitely interested myself. Really hoping I was able to get in on this. Was using my phone but the link wasn't recognized on there so I got my computer and submitted my form after 10-12 minutes. Do these usually sell out immediately or does it take a bit (glad there is 100 instead of 50)?

More popular layouts sell out quickly, but I believe Jetfire took a few days.
Previous duck boards have been ported to QMK, I think there's a good chance this one will as well, especially considering how heavy it is on macros/non-standard stuff.
Ugh. Can’t believe I missed the formNo worries, you didn‘t miss the form, the link is just not clickable via Tapatalk. You have to use the browser.

This is one of the most exciting Duck designs! I don't understand the low interest ...
Seems like the monthly chinese TKL custom GB sells better than something really new.
I already do regret it - but unfortunately there is no money for this board atm -.-This is one of the most exciting Duck designs! I don't understand the low interest ...

Yep, I reckon some people will regret it later.
Elton, can you please list the orders so far? I'm not sure about my form submission - I forgot to order extra prate + pcb combo :)

No, it's 1u wider.

Wow I finished 3rd not including Elton, I am surprised it hasn't sold out yet
I have no regrets :D :D :DScheisse jaa! Besser nicht! :D
Not complaining that I missed out, but wasn't the buy supposed to stay open to either 100 units or May 12th? Neither was the case
You guys think silver top and black bottom is going to look weird?
Considering to change my order, hmmm

I'm in the same boat- haha.
Also seeing 1/2 the participants going steel plate gives me pause about my choice there too. Starting to wonder, being that this is a very unique design, better off ordering a spare pcb with the steel plate.
Saw me on the list but did not get an invoice. Should I already get one?

What's the best practice when it comes to order change for Duck groupbuys? Wait until the first invoice is sent out and request change, is that when duckustomkeyboards has the compiled list? Thanks.
Hey Elton, what‘s with those other 20 or so spots that are not filled in the order sheet?
Email sent. :)Hey Elton, what‘s with those other 20 or so spots that are not filled in the order sheet?

That's why you got two, right? :))
Out of curiosity: Why would one choose the offered plastic plate over steel oder aluminium? I would expect it to be inferiour regarding for example flex and noise/sound.
Is it about aesthetics?
Interesting. Didn't expect plastic to be a thing for enthusiasts. I may try one in the future ;)Out of curiosity: Why would one choose the offered plastic plate over steel oder aluminium? I would expect it to be inferiour regarding for example flex and noise/sound.
Is it about aesthetics?
If I recall correctly, it has to do with manufacturing. The plates are laser-cut and not CNC machined. Aluminum in this case would require them to use CNC services, which would be costlier than manufacturing SS and plastic plates as far as time/process/supply of raw material goes.
Plastic is not necessarily inferior as a plate. It all depends on the build and feel you are trying to accomplish. There are a lot of very high-quality keyboards with polycarbonate/plastic plates or half-plates as well, and some enthusiasts prefer them.

Paid for 2! Now the fun begins.
BTW, these are weighted at 3.5kg shipped. Are weights still necessary/recommended? They'd be mighty heavy otherwise. Curious though...

Adding a weight to a board is 80% just adding more money/premium things into the board and 20% to make it heavier. Its not worth it but it does make it heavier and its an extra $80 you can throw into your already overly expensive board.

Any source for that? I heard he's done making 'normal' layouts and sticks to doing weird stuff like Jetfire, TC-V3 and such for now.
He posted this a month ago on his instagram:Show Image(https://scontent-amt2-1.cdninstagram.com/vp/e529807ac1f626eabf02043d6abbbeca/5BAA5EC0/t51.2885-15/e35/31901261_487139321716932_5596120216619712512_n.jpg)

I'm curious to know what people are planning to use for caps that will work with this layout, particularly the two columns on the left side.
I plan putting SA Oblivion on the TC-V3 with keys from the "Assembly" Kit for the macro block on the left.
SA Oblivion should start shipping soon :)

I hope it gets skipped and the Orion V3 runs first. The one duck posted on insta is beautiful.
Dear All,
duck0113 confirmed that Raven/Sidewinder will be run separately from his main GB.
Therefore, after TC-V3 GB next will be Orion V3. :)
Cheers!

if duck has me wanting one of his boards you know it's good
i want a black one
Bruh you comment on every thread that you want it, also who are you to say boards are good or not you have a Mira, not saying its a bad board but it aint anything special and if you only got "good" boards i dont think Mira would be the board

Yeah, from the 3 previous buys, looks like it's a 5-7 month turnaround. so, september at the earliest with october/november being more likely...
considering uniquearmory is right in the middle of raven/sidewinder production for primekb, id imagine TC-V3 might take a little longer then most duck buys....

Hi everyone, sorry for the lack of updates as I was occupied with work and moving into my new place. With that being said, all PMs will be replied by the end of the week.
In terms of updates for TC-V3, the units for the Korea GB will be shipped next week and the NA units will be shipped after. I will provide you all with a solid update when I hear back. Thanks for your patience!

I believe the batch shipping is to save duck from having to do 100 boards at once, so i'd imagine it'll be batches
but also, i have no idea

Does anyone know the dimensions for this board? I'm looking at getting a TX bag for it and want to make sure I get the one that's closest in size.
Does anyone know the dimensions for this board? I'm looking at getting a TX bag for it and want to make sure I get the one that's closest in size.
Width is pretty much identical to TX-CP, depth is a tiny bit higher on the TC-V3 as it has 0.25u spacing for the F-row compared to none on TX-CP, you might have to cut a few mm of foam if at all.

Yeah now that I look at it, they're close but I'm pretty sure the TC-v3 is a bit wider also.

Steville Where is the only place to sell black plastic parts ,,,"

The boards look beautiful imo, and the anodization on the black looks especially great. This will be my first Duck board, so I'm super excited!
Hi everyone,
I've been advised from Duck there are some delays. I will provide you an update when I receive any further updates regarding shipment of your boards.
Thanks for your patience!
Someone posted their build on Reddit. Not sure if they’re from the Korea buy or this one. https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/9oawkp/tcv3_with_gmk_hyperfuse (https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/9oawkp/tcv3_with_gmk_hyperfuse)
Looking great!
The owner 심플라이프 has a lot nicer pics of it on kbdlab. Hopefully he doesn't mind me sharing his pics..... :-[Show Image(https://imgur.com/JJYeVJQ.jpg)

Someday Duck will realize how bad that uneven rgb underlighting looks. 5 LEDS along the front all spaced uneven. Its quite infuriating!
Hopefully one day someone makes this layout again that's not 11 degrees 🙏
Looking to transfer my spot if anyone is interested!
Hi all,
Unfortunately, I am unable to do any more address changes at this point, which means we are coming closer to shipping. Stay tuned.
I totally keep forgetting to ask this, but what is the USB termination for this board? Mini B? USB C? Thanks, I need to get working on a cable...
I forgot to ask earlier, does duck usually declare a lower value for his boards?

There were a few people earlier in the thread that said their previous boards were declared at $30 to $100

Secondly, did people get their shipping notifications?

Someone posted a sound test a month ago:
she has another Video that is an actual review.
...odd thing is...she shows the USB Connection on the back of the TC-V3 and is it Micro USB! WTF....I hope the owner of that board somehow swapped it out.Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/Pl1C24r.jpg)

Hamel covered this a bit earlier.
And another Wednesday as past...
Any reason to why the local orders got shipped so much earlier than internationals? I can't imagine it sending packages worldwide would be any different locally.

Duck always runs a Korean groupbuy first, then an international one. Elton organizes the international GB, and TrueCustom handles the Korean one. Pretty sure the orders from each are sent to the manufacturer separately and done in batches. Paperwork for shipping internationally is totally different from paperwork for shipping locally. Customs 'n ****.

#8 here and no board yet, weird since the person who had theirs for sale is #9
My board showed up yesterday without any notice.
Tracking numbers are on the spreadsheet at the bottom of the first post of this thread (for those that have been sent) just FYI
Delivery attempted, authorized recipient unavailable at time of delivery... goddamnit...
Just curious, any idea when the rest of the international shipments are going to go out?
To the people asking for an update, check the Google Spreadsheet at the bottom of the original post, it updates with tracking when the boards go out.
This is what I am checking.

All remaining orders will be shipping today (Korea time) or tomorrow.
Just received my board moments ago but the spreadsheet isn't updated with a tracking number. Confirming that other Canadians from the first batch should be receiving theirs soon.
Anyone know, what company is doing the U.S. delivery?

Should be USPS.
Am I just blind or was there never a clear answer on whether this is O2D or Snow Tools?
I’ve just noticed that the spreadsheet has been updated and everyone now has a tracking number. Based on mine, it should arrive tomorrow :)

just put your tracking number in google and search....then hit the USPS link.
make sure you double click the cell that your number is in, so it highlights the numbers that aren't showing. Your complete tracking number is EG236490765KR
The 5KR doesn't show on the spread sheet.

I just use some tweezers and switch hitter. It has worked on every duck board I have built up until now. Straight out of the package.
https://elitekeyboards.com/switchhitter.php
Would anyone happen to have the CAD file for the weight? Or know where to download it?
Help is much appreciated!
So any good guides on programming one of these? This is my first Duck :)

Ok found the latest 02D tool, but for the life of me cannot figure out which key is the "flip" key for this PCB to get it into bootloader mode. Anyone want to give me a hint? Currently trying a bunch of different guesses.
I've tried in vain to get the plate file for this kit. If anyone has one, or has reverse-engineered their own, please PM me. I'd like to get a brass plate made.
Also, this board BEGS for QMK.
I started to build my board this weekend, but I have a couple of led pads that ground out. I reflowed them with an iron and rechecked with a multimeter with no luck. Not sure if that is grounds for a PCB replacement. The board works otherwise. Thoughts Elton? Can I buy an additional plate/pcb if not?

Im sending mine to merlin so he can port it. I was waiting for my semester to end which it did 12 hours ago

Which LEDs are these. I want to test mine before I build it, thanks.
Oh the indicator LEDs?
so much for wednesday :'(

Yes. Grounded out right out of the bag.

They only activate when layers are selected, but mine were obviously dead due to multimeter readings. Make sure that it isn't a polarity reversal or just because the leather isn't active.

If it’s not too painful, would you mind explaining step-by-step how you would test these with a multimeter?

Message me if you get the plate file. I would like to make a carbon-fiber plate.
I’ve had zero luck despite several attempts unfortunately.
Any links to the latest firmware?

I'm almost done redrawing the plate. Still need to add the holes/slots for the mounting screws, round off the outer corners and simplify stabilizer cutouts. And do a cheap test cut in acrylic or something (unless one of you can do a test cut quickly).
What kind of layout do you need? I'm personally going ANSI, split backspace and right shift, 1.5/1/1.5/6/1.5/1/1.5 bottom row, probably both kinds of caps lock, all 1u macro keys.
Cool. Did you draw it with swillkb builder?
I prefer to 6.25u or 7u spacebar because it's much easier to get the keycap(especially SA). Could you draw an universal plate to be compatible with all spacebar sizes?
Sure, no problem. I'll make sure the bottom row matches the original plate.
6u can be a pain, I had to delay my build for a while when I learned (the hard way) that the 6u stab wire I had from an G80 1800 (with the extra bends) wouldn't work with a plate.
I did insist on 6u for this board and got a wire (kbdfans has them) ;D
(Attachment Link)
Don't know if I chose offset stem because of the PCB or because of the keycaps.
[No progress on the plate file.]
If you don't mind me asking, where are those relegendables from?
So I know mechmerlin has a board, any word on how the QMK port is going? It's the only reason this isn't my daily driver.

Curious: What are you looking to do with QMK that you can't do out of the box to enable it to be your daily driver?

Have a backlight setting that isn't on highbeam all of the time. Tapdance, modpresses, etc.
Does anyone understand the led cluster above the right arrow key. There are 6 leds. What do they map to?
Does anyone understand the led cluster above the right arrow key. There are 6 leds. What do they map to?
Layers. On base layer the top and middle row left LEDs are lit (not sure if that’s supposed to be like that or not). I currently only have one extra layer programmed, but when I hold down the key to change to that layer the top row of 3 all light up. Haven’t had time to play around with the board much yet, so I haven’t added any extra layers to play with to see how the lights work (like what lights up for what layer).
Anyone know how to program this board? Just put it together but had no idea how to map it
Any links to the latest firmware?.
Further up in the thread is a link to the latest O2D for the TC-V3.

The only real issue I had was saving the hex file. It would constantly fail and error out when trying to save, no matter what name I gave the file. I didn’t see it discussed in that guide you linked, but found mention of it in another guide/discussion, was that you need to go into the directory where O2D is and create a new txt file, rename it to whatever you want to call your hex, and change the extension from .txt to .hex. After that the file will show up when saving and allow you to overwrite it, giving you a working hex save file.

I had that issue too until I changed that sys language to Korean as mentioned in the tutorial. It's a bit ridiculous for a board being sold internationally. But at least it works...

When I used O2D I was able to flash successfully without changing language.
I have assembled the keyboard using Snow-Pro ALPS-TKL pcb and I'm struggling with keymap.
I tried both Snow Tool and O2D tool to connect to the board without success.
I thought that I do not have the correct driver installed.
Could anyone help me with this.

How do you even get a TKL pcb to fit in this case with the funky layout? :eek:
is Duck ever going to rerun this board/a variant of it? One of my dream layoutsI wonder what Duck's take on an ergoboard would be like
I noticed that mechmerlin got the TC-V3 port into QMK, has anyone has any success with that?
If I compile any of the supplied keymaps and flash I end up with a dead board (no output from keypresses).
Thankfully I can roll it back to default firmware ok, but would love to get QMK working on it.
