Aroum's handwired Yolochka was mentioned multiple times (#196, #204 here on kbd.news, and now turtle_bazon released his wireless Yolochka Remastered, a 36-key unibody split with Katana-ish staggering, inspired by the original. Yep, and with a super-flexible PCB.

It started as an attempt to turn the original YOLOCHKA into a PCB-based design with some sort of flex – turtle_bazon.
