Oh, and I have another Question: Why are the Sensors now flipped?

Chips are shown outside, instead inside to the Magnet.

How is the size comparison of the NXT quadrant throttle Levers vs the Real thing or vs other quadrants like Logitech or Honeycomb? Will they also come with swappable throttle stick grips for different aircrafts?

Is there a guide on how to swap one of the buttons that came with the NXT (Swap analog for 4-Way hat), and how to swap springs? Which springs does it come with by default, 10/20/30? And which spring is heavier?

Will regular Gunfighter style sticks also be able to be modified to fit into this base, in the opposite direction of this stick being usable on a Gunfighter base?

Only Kosmosima grips for now; F-14 would follow. MCG Pro is not compatible.

Look at this, there is nothing complicated there.
Use the eyelet ring (included) to replace the springs.

Great to hear! Are the NXT and the Kosmosima really the exact same grip? They look basically the same and multiple people have said they are identical, but I just wanted to be certain. Also would the NXT base support stick extensions if it were mounted?

GF connector Kosmosima and NXT connector Kosmosima are exactly the same grip with a different connector. Replacing the connector on a Kosmosima grip would allow the user to swap it from a GF base to a NXT base.
The NXT base wasn't designed for extension use.

Any idea when the Gladiator NTX add on items will be available in North America? Specifically, I'm interested in the Side Extension module i saw in the youtube video. I assume is a single throttle control and other buttons. In general, interested in a distinct throttle/button unit to set up a HOTAS like system at the Gladiator NXT entry point.

I have a question. I have a gladiator mk2 and kosmosima premium right grip. And I’m dying because upgrade kit is not available.
Can I purchase gladiator nxt standard and mount my kosmosima premium in place of kosmosima standard grip ?
Do mouting shaft swap or something like that?

That would be possible by sending an e-mail to sales@vkb-sim.pro and asking for an invoice for a Gladiator NXT base and a NXT type connector (which would replace the GF connector on your grip).

Thank you fallout9!

I wrote e-mail to sales and they helped!

I did write once before to sales but they responded that it’s not possible. But I asked if I can swap grip from gladiator nxt standard. Maybe we misunderstood each other.

I’m waiting for final price and will be waiting for delivery.
Thank You!

Can the T-Rudders be directly connected to Gladiator NXT?
