Works like a charm
I was pleasantly surprised the quality of the LEDs, sometimes LEDs can be a little lacking in the brightness department. I have much more expensive PCBs that aren't nearly as bright.

South Facing LEDS please!
The PCB is unique in the sense that it provides 2 usb c input ports. This is great as my PC at home is on my left, and at work, its on the right. Additionally, if one of the ports breaks or snaps off some how, you're not entirely screwed. The LEDS and the underglow LEDS are super bright and look fantastic against the acrylic accent piece of the drop CTRL. My biggest gripe with this is that LEDS are north facing so some switches may cause interference with cherry profile keycaps. With long pole stems becoming the norm lately though, this is becoming less and less of an issue, plus north facing LEDS typically are better for RGB lovers who use shine-through caps. I hope future renditions of this PCB support pcb mount stabilizers (screw ins) as they sound and feel much better than plate mount. All in all, this is a fantastic PCB and it is appropriately priced for what it offers.

Just what I expected!
The board is easy to configure! I normally run into issues with the hotswap sockets but this board was put together well!

It's A Replacement Board
I see a lot of people giving this high ratings for two reasons:
- It fits inside the CTRL keyboard
- It was in stock and they were able to buy it.

Lacks modern features
Features of the PCB - remapping keys, led control - are a bit lacking compared to modern PCBs. Via support would do wonders for Drop boards.

PCB Still no 5 pin Switch Support
I wish drop would update these PCB to support 5 pin switches. No alternatives at the moment.

Total CRAP
Received my first PCB, tested it only to find that more than half the switches didn't work. Received a second PCB only to discover while building the board that SO FAR 3 of the F keys don't work. Tried multiple switches in every non-working key and NOTHING. This was my first purchase from Drop and you can trust I won't be a return customer nor will I suggest them to anyone.

Works great to replace old 4+ year old PCB
My old PCB was causing issues with plugging in and out and this resolved the issues. I wish they'd add an edition with 5 pins or a rotary encoder though.
