Hello! Just a head's up for those participating in this current drop. I did a teardown of the VB87M, where I replaced the space bar's stabilizers, you can check it out here: http://imgur.com/a/4RuFJ

LeaseInteresting; thanks for the inside view. What didn't you like about the stabilizers that came on the board?

kbdobsessedNot all of the stabilizers, just the space bar's. It wouldn't accept the usual spacing that were used in many keycap sets.
I believe Varmilo used Leopold's uncommon space bar stabilizer positioning in some of its own keyboards. (They're both produced in the same factory btw)

LeaseHi Lease, may I ask if you're aware of whether or not the cherry stabilizers come as a standard, or it's a mixture depending on the type of switches people order for this upcoming drop?
Would really love for it to be the standard Costar stabilizers.

DominikPhuaIt's speculated that there's no 'real' way to avoid getting these non-standard stabilizers or the costar stabilizers. But I do believe that Massdrop communicated this problem to Varmilo after the first drop.
Best to confirm with a few people from the second drop if they received costar, or even standard cherry stabilizers yes.
