So I received my Gladiator II today finally after an eager wait. Plugged it in and all seemed fine until I went to calibrate it. Its disconnects from the computer as I do the calibration then reconnects.
I have slowly gone through every button and it seems to be the 'Eject' button. When I press it , it disconnects.
I picked up the joystick and turned it over to have a look at the model number and it disconnect then too.
I have changed USB ports but it still does it.
I think I have a dud
The Mode lights show both Green/Red when it reconnects then goes to just red.
Loose wire maybe?
Actually, I just checked the USB cable and when I wiggle it at the base of the joystick, it disconnects.
Now what?
New Gladiator II keeps disconnecting

Re: New Gladiator II keeps disconnecting
Had another play around with it today. Definitely the cord where it goes into the joystick base.
I could open it up to see if its an easy fix but I won't.
I have sent a message to VKB North America to get an RMA or instructions on what they want me to do.
Has anyone else had this problem out of the box?

Re: New Gladiator II keeps disconnecting
Fixed it!!
VKB told me to open it up and have a look.
The connector at the end of the USB cord inside was just barely connected. Pushed it in all the way and it works perfectly now.
Thanks VKB for your help.
