Gladiator PRO MKII twist issue

Hi all,

I just purchased the gladiator pro MKII from a former owner. I received it by postmail and the joystick looks great, i really enjoy the felling when flying...
But i have a trouble when i try to twist the stick : it is very hard to twist on the left and side and it's completly blocked on the right hande side... and the axis is not functionnal..
I dunno if the former owner opened the stick or did anything with the stik...
Is there any lock for tis axis ? or something to do to get the rudder on the stick ?

Thx,
Acro

The Gladiator PRO doesn't twist. :shock:

If it does, you have a problem :?

The "twist" you experience is probably due to the fact that you haven't tightened enough the grip to the base. It would also explain why you can "twist it" left, up to 15°, and not at all to the right. This is a feature allowing us to rotate the stick left a little bit to make it more confortable when mounted on center position.

Thank you so much for the eplanation and for the pics...
I purchased a Saitek Rudder pedal so no more problem with the Stick !

But i thought i read a manual showing a twist on the stick....

Thx again
