Over View and Core Metrics

Dimensions: 24 inches (L) × 7 inches (W) × 1 inch (H)​

Form Factor: Extended mechanical keyboard featuring an integrated, fully remappable layout and dedicated ergonomic gamepad cluster (136 total keys: 104 main + 32 gamepad).​

Compatibility: Windows 10 / Windows 11​

Connectivity: Single USB-C connection to PC (internally bridged via dual RP2040 split PCB architecture).​

Materials & Chassis Construction: ​Main Frame: CNC-milled 6061-T6 Aluminum

  • Plates: Precision waterjet-cut top plate and gamepad plate.

  • Fastener System: 24× 316 Stainless Steel flat socket countersunk (FHS) hex head screws utilizing multi-stepped studs for rock-solid structural alignment of the PCB and internal plates.​

  • Foam Dampening Pad: A Die-Cut foam dampening pad will line the bottom of the frame.

  • Ergonomics & Feet: Integrated magnetic keyboard feet for adjustable typing angles.

  • ​Switches & Hot-Swap: Dual PCB architecture with MX-style hot-swappable switch compatibility. (Note: Gamepad cluster utilizes specialized sizing; standard keycaps will not fit the gamepad section).
Electronics & Firmware​Microcontrollers: Dual RP2040 split PCB design.​
  • Firmware: Open-source QMK firmware with VIA integration for real-time, fully customizable key remapping across both the main layout and the integrated gamepad.​

  • Audio & Control: 4× EC11 Rotary Encoders dedicated to audio volume, media control, and custom software mapping.

  • Lighting: Per-key RGB backlighting with onboard programmable effects.

  • Performance: Full N-Key Rollover (NKRO) for zero ghosting during intensive gaming sessions.​
Signature Features​: The "Rage Quit" Key:​Pre-configured as a dedicated macro key (ALT+F4).​Features a user-loadable audio file countdown triggered upon activation before executing the exit command.
  • Fully Remappable via QMK/VIA for alternative utility (e.g., instant gameplay clipping via OBS or GeForce Experience)

  • ​Custom Gamepad Keycaps: Resin-molded ergonomic gamepad keycaps finished with a tactile Polyurethane Elastomer (PUE) coating for superior grip and durability.​

  • Top-Left Artisan Launch Module: Semi-translucent acrylic artisan keycaps designed for the top-left custom switch. (Currently refining luminosity profiles relative to underlying switch RGB and physical keycap pigmentation).​

Customization Features:
  • Anodized colors: Red, Black, Blue, Purple, and Brushed Metal.​

  • Top Plate Customization: Custom laser-engraved top plate designs.(User can upload SVG file)

  • ​Crystal Edition: Upgrades the top V-window housing to genuine quartz crystal (alongside additonal features and exploratory materials for variant releases).

  • ​Included Accessories: Precision hex screwdriver matched to the 316 stainless steel hardware.

Anodized colors can be mixed and matched in any combination for Top Plate, Frame, and Gamepad Plate.
