SCG Grip Conversion Kit disabling Z-Axis
Posted: Tue Dec 23, 2025 23:32
Hi everyone,
I ordered the SCG Grip Conversion Kit (right) to have my original Gladiator NXT OTA upright again.
So according to the product page (https://flightsimcontrols.com/product/s ... rsion-kit/), this is the right product for what I'm trying to do. Installation went smooth so far, but I immediately noticed, that the twist axis is not working anymore in VKB Joytester (e.g.)
Confused, I put the OTA twist adapter back in and the twist axis does work.
I don't understand why, as for the stick, the twist adapter is just a magnet that is moving near the HE sensors within the SCG grip.
Can it be a broken conversion kit with e.g. a faulty magnet?
