Build Instructions

See Lightning's comprehensive build guide on his website.

No soldering is required, only a screwdriver. Included are 2 bags of screws (one set for PCB, one set for plate) and 1 bag of brass standoffs.

1. Install stabilisers onto the EC PCB - ensure you have the correct plate for a 6.25u or 7u layout.
2. Install standoffs to the PCB using PCB screws.
   
3. Place the plate on the stand offs, and screw in with plate screws.
4. Insert Naevies EC switches into the plate.
5. Calibrate the PCB with VIA (caniusevia.com). Here is a guide from the designer Cipulot - https://youtu.be/Q4fDkv0Z1bM

Note - PCB Name

You may notice that the PCB name in VIA is Constellation EC.

This is due to an issue with the first run PCBs not fitting in the Constellation. Instead of delaying our EC products launch, we decided to rename it the Satellite EC on our store.

Future corrected Constellation EC PCBs will have the same firmware. This will be launching soon as upgrade kits and full kits.
