Work around for firmware/configuration update error "command not recognized"
I spent more than an hour attempting to update my Drop Shift keyboard. I'm not sure what has changed, but I was not able to do it entirely from the Drop website as I had previously done. I have most of the keys configured how I would like, but the default LED function was a very bright, distracting, rainbow wave going across the keyboard. Every time I turned the computer on I had to manually adjust the lights how I liked. Using the online version or the locally installed app, you first have to install the QMK XAP interface. You then have to flash your already configured firmware file, which can be done on the Drop website. If you are logged in your last configuration is saved under your account and you can alter what you like, so you don't have to start from scratch. So, following the instructions I selected the appropriate board, entered bootloader mode, but when attempting to flash the file, I would get an error that the C:/Users/Mike C..... command is not recognized...

I have a problem with my hands that makes working with much more than the WASD keys and spacebar difficult. Started playing PUBG and I need more options. Would be cool to add pressure sensitive fuel and brake pedals. Where do you find someone to give these ideas to or have them build one? Maybe there is a market for an idea like this or someone comes up with. I have a 3 button pedal I use all the time but I want more buttons. No more searching for keys far off from what you are using most often.
