In firm hands

Fellow Pilots,
We promised you joystick desk mounts.
We failed to deliver.
We neither managed to design, nor to produce desk mounts for joysticks.
Instead, we created and produced a UNIVERSAL MODULAR SYSTEM for mounting your gaming devices onto a desk/table top.
Lean and muscular. Reliable. Easy to install. Compact to store. What is more, able to expand with multiple optional modules – from cup holder to keyboard arm.
We called it UCM STRONGHOLD.
Solid like a rock – UNIVERSAL CONTROLLER MOUNT STRONGHOLD
The system is made of 6061 construction aluminum alloy. It is the same material that Audi use for their A8 chassis, and VKB for their Gunfighter joysticks.
This alloy sports extra-high corrosion resistance which is why it is also widely used in yachting and underwater structures.
Needless to say, all parts of the new STRONGHOLD are duly electroplated to preserve exterior as new for years.
Thanks to elaborate and meticulous design even the basic set will afford you ease of setup, as well as comfort of use and storage.
We offer a UCM-S (S for short) version for sidesticks and throttle controllers, while a UCM-L (longer one) will perfectly hold an extended joystick. The latter can also be made short in case you currently have a sidestick, but are planning to get an extension in future.
We release the first STRONGHOLDS with the following options:
• Telephone/tablet*/compact keyboard holder
• Full size keyboard holder based on telephone holder
• Tea/coffee cup holder
• Beer/liquor glass holder**
_______
* Phone and tablet holders are designed with GameGlass in mind. GameGlass designs and sells tablet game sim interfaces. Besides, purchasing a Stronghold from us, you get a discount for their product, and vice versa. Details will follow.
** This is a white lie. There is only one cup holder now, but we keep thinking...
We are gaining momentum as we are going on, so our engineers keep creating more and more new modules that will be added to the existing line with no further announcements.
So ladies and gentlemen, please meet the Universal Controller Mount Stronghold from VKB.
Currently the system provides slots and pre-drilled holes for fixing the following devices:
• VKB Gladiator
• VKB Gunfighter
• VKB Mamba
• ТМ Warthog joystick
• ТМ Warthog throttle unit
RRP (shipment and tax not included):
UCM-S standard $99
UCM-L standard $129
Also, to make choosing easier, we made sets for different cockpit configurations and usage modes. Needless to say, a set comes cheaper than the same parts bought separately.
It’s no secret how we all dislike reading manuals. Hence, our expert is preparing videotutorials. Please keep your eye on updates!
STAY TUNED!
