[IC] SP SA Yuri / DCS ALPS Yuri (dropping in October)
« on: Sun, 07 July 2019, 08:16:52 »
I welcome you to the interest check for SP SA Yuri and potentially DCS ALPS Yuri.

The group buy is scheduled for this autumn on Drop.

The main keyset in this topic is SP SA Yuri and DCS ALPS Yuri is a secondary goal which should be kept in mind. Since ALPS sets are rare - i thought this would be a good experiment to try out and it gives alps users an opportunity.
Anyway enough of talk and Yuri exists already in cherry profile - so i think everyone knows what this keyset is about. If not then google for Yuri Gagarin ;)

SP SA Yuri

Alphas

Cyrillics

Cosmos

Dual Cosmos

Modifiers kit

Cyrillic modifiers kit

Dual modifiers kit

Numpad kit

Ergodox kit

40%

Novelties

ISO UK

Spacebars

Spacekeys



DCS ALPS Yuri

Definitely very interested in this keyset, I love the colourway. ISO support would be great for the SA set.

Looking forward to it.

Original SP colors ;) Despite Yuri was designed as GMK set in first place, i took the SP colors and SP samples were also used to create GMK custom colors.

The 40s kit pretty much fills ortho mods, but would it be possible to add a 1u backslash and “ key in mod colors to round it out? Or better yet, add an ortho kit? I’m getting this either way, but don’t want to have to get the cosmo kit to make it work.

I will add those keys in the next update.

ne glorious kit avail

In the next update probably. Most probably glorious keys would be only available in Yuri colors and its going to be part of Novelties. In GMK Yuri i did Glorious keys also for other keysets (like the salty kit in carbon) but SP (or rather their plastic supplier) is inconsistent if it comes to colors and thus the glorious keys would not match the keysets which were produced before.

Sorry but i am not supporting colevrak and international kits anymore, due to the chronical unfulfillment of the MOQ for those kits. If there is not enough interest/demand in those kits then i am not going to offer those. Yuri is also not that popular as Laser or Oblivion and in those drops colevrak and international kits did it tightly.

Regarding the glorious kit. SP is inconsistent if it comes to colors and two different color batches for the same color code might differ in shade from each other. Say if i produce glorious keys for a set which was done time ago then there is a high chance what you will see a shade difference. Thus i will offer only glorious keys for Yuri. GMK on the other hand is very consistent ;)

Would it be possible to add cosmos color to the spacekeys kit?

I'll look into it.

Would it be possible to have DCS Alps that uses Alps stabilizers for better compatibility?

AFAIK DCS ALPS offers only cherry stabs compatibility. Source: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=62274.0
Otherwise making alps stab compatibility would cost a fortune.

Might have gotten the ortho kit, but an orange esc and no orange enter key would look just too unbalanced.

I will add that orange enter key in the next update.

I kind of disagree with including only mod colored spacebars here instead of the accent kit, that would be like including a mod colored 6.25U space bar with the modifier kit.

Since SP could have low MOQ, I think that Yuri is popular enough to sell at least 25 or more units at a higher(but still reasonable) price or so, even if it does not reach more than 50. But it's your design and up to you to make the decision. Thanks.

DCS ALPS Yuri
As i said DCS ALPS Yuri is experimental set and i am offering only one base kit. I am not planning to add more kits for DCS ALPS!
I am also not sure about the font. As you can see i made it cherry like and making all the new legends might make this kit very expensive. So there are things to think about... It is quite possible that i will discard whole DCS ALPS idea if the pricing goes too high.

I am in for Alps DCS!  Can I just give you my money now instead of waiting until autumn?

Does the Alps set need to have the Cherry font?  I would be fine with whatever font SP has.  I'm assuming it would look something like Midnight DCS set.

Thats the dilemma here, with lower moq the pricing will go up and i am not sure if people who are really interested in getting Yuri with colevrak will still be ready to get it. And MOQ of 50 is too high. Realistically it would be MOQ of 25. There are also Cyrillic alphas which do rival (because its an alternative) the colevrak and international kit. Cyrillic (if you don't really use it for Russian layout) can be used like blanks and do fit that way any layout.

I think it does not need the font tho i really prefer the font. The thing is, i have to see that SP got and i will decide later. Otherwise the cherry font would make it all more expensive because every key will be a custom legend.

Every kit has its own MOQ. So there will be no fighting. If someone wants the DCS ALPS Yuri he gets just that kit.

Yes that's true but it belongs to another designer and i need a permission to reuse it. Otherwise i have to make my own "cherry replica". I mean i have my cherry font but as you know it would cost something since basically whole DCS ALPS Yuri set will require custom legends.

That could not have been said better.

My suggestion for using a standard SP font was only intended as a failsafe in case this set gets too expensive.  My preference is to have this set look the way you envision.
