Re: T-Rudder Mk.IV causes Gladiator Pro to disconnect

I think I found something: IMG_20250125_120700.jpg IMG_20250125_123322.jpg Signs of heat damage at the RJ45 connector. There is some discoloration of the individual contacts as well as melting of the plastic in between. It seems those contacts have been shorting out to the bottom plate of the stick....

Re: T-Rudder Mk.IV causes Gladiator Pro to disconnect

This is so strange. I had just used the rudder pedals to play a game last night since it was working after I connected using the Blackbox I have. Now I come home from work and the "SYS" and "PEDALS" lights are flickering rapidly and the pedals are no longer recognized in VKB Devi...

Re: T-Rudder Mk.IV causes Gladiator Pro to disconnect

I connected the rudder to the Orange Box and then Orange box to PC USB and the pedals are recognized in VKB Device Config, appears to work now. Does this mean there is a problem with the RJ45 connector in the Gladiator stick?

Re: T-Rudder Mk.IV causes Gladiator Pro to disconnect

I searched around to see how to disassamble the pedals, but could only find instructions on replacing the cam. Do you remove the small plastic cover under the pedals (with the serial number sticker) to see those connectors?

Re: T-Rudder Mk.IV causes Gladiator Pro to disconnect

Unfortunately, everything worked well for one evening, and today the original problem returned and got worse. Now as long as the pedals are connected, the stick does not even connect (no lights on) and does not appear in the VKB Device Config program. I tried different combinations of connecting the...

Re: T-Rudder Mk.IV causes Gladiator Pro to disconnect

I used the "Make Reg File" tool and ran the resulting file, then re-calibrated using the VKB Config app. I don't have full range on the Z-Axis (throttle) and X-Axis. For the throttle my minimum value is 6400, maximum is 63715. For X-Axis, I still get the same behavior where I only get full...

Re: T-Rudder Mk.IV causes Gladiator Pro to disconnect

I downloaded the latest firmware and vkb config from the support web page. Since I have a Gladiator Pro Mk II, I chose the firmware file "_Gladiator-MK2_KG12_v2_18_9.vkb" is that correct? Or should I have used "_Gladiator-K_KG12_Pro_v2_18_9.vkb"? So far, no random disconnects/rec...

Here are the screenshots I got with the rudder pedals connected using the original cable: Profile-axes.JPG MaRS test.JPG While trying to get these screenshots, the stick kept rapidly disconnecting and reconnecting a few times and then stayed connected. I noticed the red mode LED on the stick was fli...

T-Rudder Mk.IV causes Gladiator Pro to disconnect

My 7-year old T-Rudder and Gladiator Pro setup seems to have developed a communication problem between the pedals and the stick. When they are connected via a standard ethernet cable (the cable that came with the pedals is now testing bad with my ethernet tester), the stick and rudder disconnects (U...

Re: Gladiator Pro Mk II Grip Options

I have not gotten a response from either sales@vkb-sim.pro (2 weeks) or sales_en@vkb-sim.pro (5 days). Are the offices observing the Chinese New Year Holiday?

Gladiator Pro Mk II Grip Options

I bought my Gladiator Pro MkII back in 2017 and used happily it almost every day since together with my VKB rudder pedals. The only thing that doesn't work very well anymore is the hat on the KG12 grip. It no longer clicks in the up and down directions although the switch still registers those direc...
