KBDfans Odin R4 Mechanical Keyboard Kit

No, the Odin R4 is a barebones mechanical keyboard kit. You will need to purchase your own mechanical switches and keycap set separately to complete the build.

The leaf spring mount provides a more flexible and cushioned typing feel compared to traditional tray-mount keyboards. It allows the plate and PCB assembly to flex slightly with each keystroke, resulting in a softer, more comfortable bottom-out.

Yes, the Odin R4 features a hot-swappable PCB. This allows you to plug in and remove compatible MX-style mechanical switches without the need for any soldering tools.

The included Polycarbonate, FR4, and Aluminum plates allow you to tune the sound and feel of the board. Polycarbonate offers the most flex and a deeper sound, Aluminum provides a stiffer feel with a higher pitch, and FR4 sits in the middle as a balanced option.

Yes, the Odin R4 uses a standard 100% full-size layout. It is compatible with most standard keycap sets, including those that feature a full numeric keypad.

The Odin R4 is quite substantial, weighing approximately 1.80kg as a kit and reaching roughly 2.06kg once fully built with switches and keycaps. This weight helps keep the board firmly planted on your desk during use.
