Use AutoHotkey to get around the tilde problem.

Visually, this is like something out of my daydreams when I first saw GMK birch. It’s incredible. But bummer to hear about the Esc key, that’s a drag.

It is an absolute beauty I could put up with the Esc key¡

At least it has cursor keys! I recently bought the RK61 and for me it's unusable!
(I don't think I've ever needed an escape key though!)

Not sure if you have access to the firmware, but you could probalby remap the cursor keys? My KB hasn't any, so I use MOD + I / J / K / L (home row).
The Windows Power Toys also allow the creation of custom shortcuts, maybe this would work as well (if using Windows)

Modded my royal kludge RK71 that I just use as a cheap wireless keyboard for my projector setup. Kept everything as OEM as possible - stock switches and stabilizers, and bottom casing since I wanted to keep the factory angle to go off off. Honestly would not recommend this keyboard because the escape key needs to have fn pressed, it’s default is tilde and you can’t reprogram it lol. Would not recommend this kb at all but it was a fun project
