How to Link Gladiator to GNX Dual THQ + SEM + FSM-GA Combo

Postby FrequentFlyer » Tue Jan 25, 2022 2:05

Hello,

I recently bought the GNX Dual THQ + SEM + FSM-GA Combo and was wondering how I could link my Gladiator NXT to it: what parts to purchase and how to install said parts.

Also, is attaching it even possible, or would it be above the device limit for the USB controller in the combo?

Attached is a picture of how I would like to attach the Gladiator to the Combo. I just want to add the stick to the right of the combo.

I would greatly appreciate a response, thank you!

Unfortunately this is not possible out of the box with the combo. Independent modules would come with everything needed, but the combos come with the minimum necessary.
So basically you would need one of these couplers (they come in package of 2) and a 3-to-4 pins JST cable. The cable is not posted on the website, but if you'll decide to go for it just write an email to your local vendor and ask to have one added to your parcel; you won't get charged for it.

Do I need to get the reinforcing plate as well? https://vkbcontrollers.com/?product=mod ... cing-plate

I see that it is recommended to use it for 3 or more connected modules.

For 3 modules in line only if you move them a lot on your desk. More than 3 in line, yes. Same with the Gladiator NXT + module - if it's always on your desk don't bother; if you're store it on a shelf from time to time better reinforce it.
