Re: Brand new Gladiator NXT EVO Omni Throttle stopped working after a couple minutes

AH! Calibrate first, then apply the deadzone... okay, that is the reverse of what was shown in this video: https://youtu.be/8atpTEC-QYU?t=294 Maybe that video was assuming you were coming from a previously-calibrated stick that was modified to a throttle? Anyhow, I think that explains all of my prob...

Re: Brand new Gladiator NXT EVO Omni Throttle stopped working after a couple minutes

Okay, I think I figured something out. When I tried to set the deadzone higher (from 3 up to 4 on the X axis, as demonstrated in the setup video) and click on "Set" (again, as shown in the video) then the joystick powers off briefly and when it comes back on the stick is non-functional. To...

Re: Brand new Gladiator NXT EVO Omni Throttle stopped working after a couple minutes

Now I'm very confused. I clicked the Default button in the Device Config, and suddenly all the LEDs are back to what they were originally (even the ones on the stick!).

Re: Brand new Gladiator NXT EVO Omni Throttle stopped working after a couple minutes

While I have the multimeter out, I decided to connect the wires on both ends and test to see if I still get continuity past the plugs. It was a bit hard to hold the meter's leads in place, but I was able to get a test tone when touching the small metal part where each of the three wires connects int...

Re: Brand new Gladiator NXT EVO Omni Throttle stopped working after a couple minutes

Unfortunately I only have the one VKB stick, so I don't have extra parts I could try to swap in to test :( I went ahead and disconnected the 3-wire cable at both ends and then pulled as much of it as possible out of stick both directions, to inspect the whole length - and I cannot see any visible wi...

Brand new Gladiator NXT EVO Omni Throttle stopped working after a couple minutes

I received a new Gladiator NXT EVO Omni Throttle Left Premium kit from VKB NA this afternoon, and assembled it per the videos on the YouTube channel. At first everything seemed to be working fine: LEDs on both the base and "stick", so I downloaded and installed the VKB Device Config applic...
