yes, that might happen. They asked for permission which we gave. That doesn't mean that I am getting anything from those sales, just that they will sell clones from China with our permission instead of sell anyway without our permission.

Looks like the copies are out already:

Link #2

Do these ship immediately or is there a wait involved? Can anyone here translate?

P.S. I'm not buying that sh*t, I already joined the official drop on MD

These are pretty much vendors working as a proxy to get the WhiteFox to customers in China. They'll order as many as they need from the actual group buy, and then distribute them to whoever buys one from their store.

So don't worry. It's not a copy. :D

the keyboard is not ready, so they can't ship it yet.

Also: 1) they can't use the WF logo. 2) they can't use I:C logo. 3) they can't use our graphics/photos in general.

So yeah technically that is a rip off.

That's like me paying for 10 units from Massdrop and waiting for others to buy them off me (for what seems like a meagre profit)

Why couldn't the Chinese consumers get them directly from the MD GB?

They could, but shipping would eat them alive (I think).

It's better for a merchant/vendor to get a bulk order and then sell it to locals in China. There will be a markup, but I don't think it's as bad as getting an individual unit shipped. Might also have to do with ease of access or knowledge of the drop. Some people in China may not know about Massdrop or the fact that the WhiteFox is selling (was selling) there.

Yeah, this happens a lot too. China actually helps a lot of GBs out in this regard. Jukebox is on Tao Bao, for example. They bought quite a few units i believe.

I ask because the photo of the pcb on MD doesn't show support for a stepped capslock despite matt3o saying that it does

Any ETA on when the how-to assembly guide(s) will be available? I'm really interested to see how this bad boy gets assembled being this is my first time soldering (got a soldering iron coming in this week to start testing with).

Matt3o thank you for you fast and accurate answers.
My OS is Linux (Manjaro), it supports Slovenian layout. OK so I buy ANSI keycaps and then I can program each key the way I want it to be.

If I use Slovenian layout with ANSI keycaps this is going to be a mess, so what I would do then is I would reprogram each key.
So basicly I do it like this, I set OS to Slovenian layout that gives me special letter signs like ČŠŽ čšž.
Because of Slovenian layout the sign will be at different location on the keyboard,
This means the "&" sign will not be where ANSI keycap is show me. All other keys will be also different from what ANSI keycaps are showing so I would have to reprogram these keys .
I guess I could then program it so that I get the corrent signs matching ANSI keycap with its correct sign and also have the special signs letters from Slovenian layout.

Is this correct ?

by the way was White fox keyboard already used in LInux, are there any problems with it ?

the keyboard pretty much works out of the box, just set your OS to slovenian layout. of course some of the symbols/letters won't match, you'd need to find a slovenian keyset (I don't know where you can get it, sorry, maybe some old Cherry keyboard).

I'm using the whitefox on linux since a couple of months now :)

When will be the next drop available for whitefox ?
There is 1711 requests including mine, this is good.
I am still thinking which tactile switch to choose, I have MX reds and now I am thinking of buying MX Clears or Zealio purple 67.
Will massdrop offer more switch options for the next drop ? LIke Matias Quiet Click ?

The WhiteFox PCB does not support ALPS/Matias switches. They would need to make a new PCB, plus new plates. I'd count this as unlikely.

Hey Matt3o, is there a list of the default settings for the FN key? e.g. FN+Left = Home and so on

Also, how do I change FN+1 from F1 to LED+ (or is there no simple way to explain this)?

It does not make much sense to include under-glow that will be completely blocked in a keyboard with a closed aluminum case.

Make an acrylic diffuse layer then I guess.  It's always nice to have the capability and people can choose to turn it on or not. Hope this makes sense

Well, if you alter the design of the Fox, then everything is possible, again, if the intent is to use it as designed there is no reason to illuminate the interior of a non transparent case.

WASD can make custom keycaps. They are printed (and UV coated) so the legends will wear off with heavy usage, but because they are printed, you can have any custom icon/legend you want, in pretty much any color(s) you want, on any and all keys you want. The color of the keycaps themselves, however, is limited to WASD's selection.

Man I am really hoping they do another run. I'd love to put one together.
Yeah same here, I don't understand why I didn't buy one...

My first keyboard build! I've got R1 65g Zealios on this vixen. I only had access to a 100/140W soldering gun, so I was really careful about contact time with the components. I had one or two switch bottoms get a little bit melted, but seems like they switches are still hitting just fine.

The quality of the case/plate/pcb is...well it's blowing all of my expectations out of the water. I love the weight and texture of the case, and everything fits together flush. So glad I stuck around the GB for this keyboard. Next steps are to flash the firmware with my own keyboard layout.

Matt3o, thank you SO much for organizing this project. I hope you are proud, because I am definitely gloating about this board to all of my coworkers, muahaha.
