Updates from kbdlab:

Firmware/Mapping for the Orion V2

O2D Orion V2 custom key mapper:


New features (based on Google translation):

• ISO key layout
• More layers (4+3Fn)
• RGB lighting support
• Added Media keys
• Added Mouse keys
• Added locking keys

Firmware is currently in testing stage.

[wlhlm]

ISO

[filphil]

• RGB lighting support

Firmware is currently in testing stage.

As per google translate

3. Support RGB Function
- RGB color controls available in separate into the lower

So does that mean RGB in-switch lighting adjustment?!

Edit:

Probably not but here's the screen shots for the bottom RGB adjustment

Adjustment for acrylic bottom flat/angled


Adjustment for the aluminum portion

• RGB lighting support

I think just for the RGB LEDs on the back

[Jason_IRL]

I am getting very excited for this. The software looks nice!

[Want]

I am so happy about the software update, I'm so hype.

[Pemdas]

There's not enough blue case previews!

[PunksDead]

I know my boards gonna come in and I'm gonna be to much of a p**** to build it,

So it'll sit in my drawer each day trying to muster up the courage to not mess up a $500 keyboard

[Sed8op8]

I feel you.... I bought a "decent" soldering station and everything I need helping hands and such.... Bought a couple beater boards off eBay for practice. Decided to mod my poker II because I figured it was a decent step between a $20 board off of eBay and a nice custom (was not 100% happy with the job I did even though it was functional). Ended up selling my first kit because I did not want "functional" on a $500 keyboard 

I guess I need more practice because I really don't feel like defiling a beautiful PCB or having to order extras in my next GB  )

See sed8s name on one of those open GB spreadsheets where you can see everyone's order.

1 aluminum upper casing
1 poly carbonate bottom casing
1 aluminum plate
6 PCBs
 ) yupp that's me

Edit: I'm also slightly OCD when it comes to my gear. So knowing there is a flaw somewhere even if its not a major device altering one drives me freaking bananas !!

[Evo_Spec]

Too bad i'm so far, i'd totally build your guy's boards.....

[filphil]

Too bad i'm so far, i'd totally build your guy's boards.....

I plan on taking a trip to Japan next year.   Maybe I'll have an extra PCB for you to solder for me!

I'll have my soldering equipment ready lol

[Fnzzy]

So far I have only seen rainbow backlighting, glad to see you can also display a solid color. Can't wait now!

The Koreans love their rainbow.

[Ngt]

I wish there was such case for a 60%, they are really pretty.

[orcinus]

So does that mean RGB in-switch lighting adjustment?!

Switch footprints on the PCB only accommodate one LED (two leads).
There's simply not enough pads for an RGB LED in each switch (not to mention routing that would be hellish).

well, 2 prong RGB LEDs might work, depends on how the Orion V2 is, but on my Octagon 2 prong RGB didn't work, but on my Leeku they did. Obviously you can't control the RGB on them though, they just cycle through

[filphil]

Some of you received a PM from me already but I'll put this out there for anyone who might be willing to help -

I'm currently looking for someone who ordered a steel plate and would be willing to swap me for a plastic plate(I have an extra set).  I'm trying to do a review/comparison of each of the plate types(with 62g gold ergo clears) offered in this group buy and the steel plate is the missing piece of the puzzle. 

Elton has already tried helping me out buy, understandably, it's a tad late to add on a steel plate to the order. 

Please PM me even if you're so much as on the fence about it.  Thanks!

[missalaire]

Can we please have an idea of when packages are going to be sent?

I'm going one month on holidays, it would really be a shame that it arrives when I'm not there.

I've been told it's been delayed until mid August.  I can ask if they can delay your shipment until you're back..

Still looking like mid August?

[Lastpilot]

Please let this still be on schedule for mid august. Please please please :]

[yicaoyimu]

Wouldn't your best bet be to buy out a third person's order, one with a steel plate?  Your pockets seem deep enough.

[FreeChemicals]

I'm parting with my order, #5 on the list. Please send me a PM if you have any interest. Pending.

LOL. I didn't have to set it up.  The longer a groupbuy takes, the more people realize what they can do with the cash they put up in it.  Congrats on your 3rd OrionV2.  I'd say to complete your set, you still need a red top (order #28, 50 or 60).   )

Will there be a re-confirmation of shipping address before this ships? I'm just curious and you could say a bit paranoid since I changed my address lol

[elton5354]

Yes, definitely.  I'll post here to let you know they are almost ready to ship and to let me know if you want to confirm your address with me. 

Actually, you can let me know now. Doesn't matter.


Edit: just send me a PM with your current address and if it's different from what I have, I'll let you know.

[coast9x72]

I really want 1 slot of. If someone want to let it go, please only pm me, i will take it for sure. Thanks.

[jaemzp]
