Firmware for Gladiator Pro Mk2 with a SCG standard grip

[Xup]

Looking for the correct firmware to allow me to use the Gladiator Pro Mk2 with the SCG standard grip.

If someone could point me to the correct one please.

Cheers

Are you sure it's a Pro, does it have metal gimbal inside?

[Xup]

Yes it's a pro for sure.
Current firmware is old as it had been used for WW2/IL2 with the old KG12 grip.....version v1.85b,
need the firmware for a right hand SCG standard grip to update it to use the SCG grip in DCS

One other point, I use the VKB rudder pedals connected directly to it, not through the orange box.

Still looks so great after all this time! The proper firmware would be _Gladiator_SCG_v2_09_0.vkb
But why did you installed 2 washers on that cam? Looks like the cam is not aligned with the ball bearing anymore because of that. Check this video for proper cams installation.

You can try the extreme software as described here.

Thanks for that Fallout,

The pic was taken a couple of years ago, just after I had given it a good cleaning

No idea why I have 2 washers installed, I'll take it apart tonight and get it sorted.

Just waiting on the correct grip now, VKB EU sent me the wrong one (left instead of right) so waiting for them to get back to me via the ticket system.

One more question, with the new SCG grip..... with it now give me a working twist axis on the old Mk2 Gladiator. ?


Ron, thanks for that I'll have a look at it.

Cheers

Indeed, the twist is inside the grip and not related to the base.

Great, a free upgrade, an unexpected bonus
