SatPad The SatPad (formerly: Cupcake) is an open-source 30% ortholinear keyboard/macropad designed by u/quirk .
KBD.news Published July 1, 2022
Jason Hazel aka quirk designed this neat 30% ortho using ergogen .
In the announcement on r/mk it was called Cupcake ("because the Pancake2 was an inspiration") but comments pointed out it looks like a satellite so it's now SatPad.
I've been playing around with Ergogen and decided on a 30% that could double as a macropad as my learning project. I messed up on the OLED (missing VCC trace, socket rotated 180) but overall happy with my first attempt – quirk .
