Dilemma Max by BastardKB; It has an integrated RP2040 microcontroller chip and diodes and underglow leds came presoldered, so soldering the per-key LEDs and switches and assembling the trackpad and case took me close to 2 hours.
I’m still looking for a display to use on the left side.

Is that the same trackpad as used in the steam controller? Does it click?
It is! You can perform a click with it, but won’t “feel” the click, since there is no haptic feedback module, which the steam controller has.
Looks near, but the location of the track pad doesn’t seem particularly useful… but I suppose that’s entirely user opinion
I find it alright for quick mouse movement using my index finger. As main I prefer a thumb trackball.
Is this kit no longer available? I’ve been waiting forever for splitkb to release the Elora to compliment my kyria for when I need a number row (gaming), but this seems like the next best thing.
This will be for sale very soon, it’s not listed yet, I was just able to get it a bit sooner 😄
The Elora is also undergoing the last few steps before going for sale, I’m also waiting for it and can’t wait to try out the module system!
Very cool. After getting the Kyria I really cannot imagine having anything other than this style thumb cluster/stagger. Great to see that there are alternatives out there.
I am interested in the 3x5+3 version and would love to get Miryoku on it, plus of course the track pad needs to work, too. Is there an easy way, like a qmk workflow build that achieves this? Or another guide that describes it?
Is this keyboard wireless? If not I couldn’t imagine using it because the wires would sit in your lap
It isn’t wireless. I’m not sure how the wires would end up in your lap when the keyboard is on your desk.
Because the wire on the trackpad is facing the user
Oh no, the red cable is actually facing away from you when using it. I guess I shouldn’t have taken these pictures at these angles 😅
That makes a lot more sense, I thought the pad was for your left thumb lol
I think they said that because the wires seem to be going toward the user instead of away like a typical keyboard. Edit… Unless you’re supposed to use it the other way and turn your hands out instead of in.
It’s a split keyboard so you can rotate the two halves and put them further apart as you like. I noticed there was some confusion about how the keyboard should be orientated 😅
I commented another picture with how it would sit on the desk.
Looks really neat! Will you apply letters / paint for identifying the keys?
I really like the construction, if I could try something and customize it to my hands and my workflow / comfort / ergonomics / productivity AND customize the firmware (key macros, binds etc) that could be really neat!
What is your particular use case? Gaming? Streaming? Programming? Typing all day?
I suppose having multiple keyboards is also an option
Thanks! This was actually the only keycaps set I had laying around that wasn’t in use 😄 But I’m a Colemak user myself, so 90% of the caps usually don’t match my layout anyway and I never look at the keys. That said, I’m thinking about replacing the caps with a uniform XDA set (the current set is NP-profile) with labels.
I do have multiple keyboards, but I’ll try this one out for gaming, since it has a num row which most of my other boards haven’t.
I’ve been re-exploring these split keyboards… Thanks for replying . How are you liking this?
Is there anything you would change?
How is your typing speed? I’m a fast typer and type a lot everyday… less a gamer but something like this would also be fun to build and program.
I still think this is one of the cooler ones that I have seen! 👍 Good job!
