> preorder a kit for $99CAD

What is a kit here? A trackball? All the parts needed to assemble a trackball? A populated circuit board, where the rest needs 3D printing? A pile of electronic components that need to be soldered together and the rest needs 3D printing?

Based on https://web.archive.org/web/20260727075248/https://blog.ploo..., it seems like some soldering is involved

For comparison, the regular adept had a PCB and came with printed parts. Some light soldering was involved.

Okay, so assembly and soldering required, but all parts included and I don't need a 3D printer. Can do. Weird that they don't mention any of that. The finished item looks like a good trackball.
