    Love the homage to 3ildcat! These kind of videos are relaxing, and it’s nice to see you try something you have a passion for. A tip: if you will continue to do subtitles for your videos, I would suggest checking the color against its backdrop. The yellow subtitle against a wooden desk made it difficult at times. Other than that, solid build! Akko is making great strides to listen to feedback from community

      Haha glad you noticed, 3ildcat is probably one of my biggest inspirations and I got into the hobby cuz of his videos! Appreciate the feedback, will make sure to keep this in mind next time 👍

      Thanks for commenting to say this. I love the board, the build and the video quality, but the captions were a little difficult to read, especially for me as a mobile user. A different color or perhaps a thicker border might help with the readability.
      At any rate, I'm subscribing now, can't wait to see more!

      Yes I need to detach the jst cable when changing the plate, its pretty simple as shown in the video, just make sure to take you r time and be careful. The PCB does support clip in stabilizers and yes, the hotswap sockets will fit switches other than akko as well.

    Was there a specific reason why you had to cut the dampening pads for the stabs, and not use the whole pad?

    • @YBBK
      @YBBK  2 года назад +1

      The stabilizers were designed for 1.6mm pcb and the 007 one is 1.2mm. Since shims or washers are not included, I decided to use the stabilizer pads to fill up the missing space. But I personally don't like how they make the stabs feel mushy. As a result, I just cut out the parts that would touch the stab stem. This way I can fill the gap without affecting the sound or feel! Learned this trick from 3ildcat lol

    • @YBBK
      @YBBK  2 года назад +1

      I also had this issue too while building my mod005 lol. The stabilizer cutout is the same for both its just that the stabilizer in this video (akkos own) had thinner housings. Akko's plates are not designed for thicker stabilizers such as the durock v2. Stabilizers with thin housings that I know of are C3 stabs, KBDFans stabs and akkos own stabs. Theres probably alot more tho

      I believe what you are referring to are the stabilizers pads. I only cut the parts around the screw because personally, I don’t like how the pads make the stabilizer feel “mushy” and sound muted.
