MAX Falcon-8 RGB custom programmable mini macropad will come in handy more often than not. Whether you use it for hotkeys in your go-to design program, for shortcuts on a spreadsheet, or for quick access to your favorite weapons in an FPS game, it’s always right by your side.

With our simple and easy programming app, you can easily create your own macros / media keys and combination keys without any coding experience. Best of all, everything you have programmed is stored in the device itself making it so convenient to use with any supported computers.

The PCB provides up to five layers of programming so you can make it as complex or as simple as you want to. Featuring eight keys, RGB lighting, an anodized aluminum plate, and a 5-foot USB cable.

This compact macropad comes semi-assembled—making it a fun entry-level side project for those who want to learn to solder. 

NOTE: This is a semi-assembled kit.
-The base kit includes an anodized aluminum plate, PCB, standoff screws, and nuts are installed.
-Rubber feet, bottom enclosure, riser feet, and backlit media keys are included but not installed.
-Switches, micro USB cable, and wire keycap puller tool are optional.
