yo im so dumb and the PCBs have a small problemit affects the 6 key on the numpad. the RGB LED signal cuts straight through the diode pad on the switch footprint. it's an easy fix for the handful of people I've already shipped:cut on the red linesShow Imagethis makes the RGB not work properly, obviously... i've ordered new PCBs for the polycarb orders. the rest of the PCBs that ship with the aluminum cases will have this cut made to them by me.
any ideas when the extra would be up for grabs?
18 black hbcps are currently out of my hands and in the hands of USPS/DHL or delivered. the remaining black ones (except for bigger orders, like 4+ PCBs/plates) and any that have an Alps plate order (read below) will be out Tuesday. I will hopefully also start getting pink ones out then too. Silver and the PC ones will be shipped after I get some more of the black/pink out. Trying to make some more room for myself lolVIA is active for the PCB but it does not come with the VIA hex flashed. You can download it here: https://caniusevia.com/docs/download_firmware#0 Note that you cannot change the indicator colors with VIA *yet* - however you can use the RGB commands now for the underglow. To change the indicator colors you have to do it in QMK itself by adjusting the HSV_* values in the hbcp.c file. If you need help with this message me and I can help ya out. Regarding the alps stuff, I decided to bite the bullet and order some new PCBs with a fixed hybrid alps+MX enter footprint. I will have some (8-10ish) extras for whomever may want one. I will be hand soldering the MCU/USB/RGB LEDs on these so they may take a little longer to get out, however there aren't too many so hopefully not too much longer lol. It's the right thing to do for everyone involved. The patience has been outstanding, thanks yall
I've never used VIA before so maybe I'm missing a step.I've downloaded VIA and the .hex file following the link below. However, when I run VIA it starts searching for devices but never finds any. I've tried plugging in pcb then loading VIA. Having VIA on and then plugging in pcb. Pressing the little button on the pcb while plugged in with VIA on, and pressing the little button while plugging it in. When I first plugged in the PCB Windows did detect it properly so at least the computer knows it's there...Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Did you flash the new .hex onto the PCB? You can do that with QMK toolbox: https://qmk.fm/toolbox/ make sure you select the AT90USB1286 in the top right menu, and browse to the correct .hex. Once you reset the PCB the AT90 device should show up (make sure you have the drivers detailed on the Toolbox page installed as well) and flash.Just did that process myself and the PCB shows up fine:Show Image

I'll try that when I get some time.Thanks for the help all.
Just finished building mine this morning with an FR4 half-plate. The board turned out sooo nice. The ano is super smooth and color matching on point. This was the smoothest group buy I've ever been in . From GB launch to board in my hands = 4months and change.... amazing 👏 Thanks so much, Hiney. (Attachment Link)
Any idea when the PC ones are going out?
Will any extra blacks be available as well? Also, dumb question, but would the extras be sold on your website?
So happy to see that the boards are being built because not only are they beautiful, but it means I might get a chance for a spare part.Where should we be checking for the potential raffle? only on your site?

Hi! Any news on silver?
Anyone want to trade one of these to me for a satisfaction75?
After you get those shipped out will you have a sense for extras?

hi yall. still waiting on the fixed PCBs for the poly orders. I got the HK DHL tracking number on April 3 however it hasn't moved since, seems like it's slow between China and HK. I am moving next weekend so I will either have the PCBs beforehand and ship once I'm moved, or have the package redirected to my new address. Either way looks like we're still at least 7-10 days away from me starting to ship the rest of the poly orders.

I tried the discord link to keep up with the latest, but it wouldn't link me there.
Hi. I moved last weekend, everything went great. I still have the polycarb hbcps with me. I got the new PCBs working fine, and have received all of the packing materials except for the side stab guard things (hardboard panels I put in the box to protect from sharp objects penetrating the cardboard). I'll pick up some hardboard from home depot tomorrow and make those up (easy stuff to do) and I'll get these out this and next week.enjoy!
i assume after everyone receives their's then there might be some b-stock available ?
Well, my PCB (the very old, pre 6-key fix) was DOA. I just took it out of the anti-static bag today to build, and no computer recognizes it as a thing when I plug it in. I'm going to need to get another PCB when they all get sorted out.
