No manual/ Quickstart in the box?

Not big deal if the answer is 'No' just to get that out of the way. I just prefer a paper manual which I can put on my workbench instead of having to walk back and forth between my PC and my workbench, or needing to fiddle around with a phone while assembling.

I was unable to find a manual in the box, so I am guessing it's all video tutorials?

Sorry Godrik, you'll have to follow the video guides (I guess you're talking about the UCM system).

Sorry, I meant a manual for the Gladiator VKB NXT Premium.

I was able to find the manual here: https://vkbcontrollers.com/?product=gla ... ser-manual

I still prefer paper over having to use my phone but this will suffice.

Nevermind, that was NOT the assembly manual. That manual is just for configurating the joystick in Windows. It does not detail how to assemble.

Does anyone have any pointers on how to assemble the hardware? I have an idea but even with the video I am unsure if I am using the right screws in the right place.

Sorry about the multiple topics. I was just overly excited to get up and running and I was just not 100% sure so I wanted to make sure before potentially making mistakes. I appreciate your quick support, that is rare and very much appreciated.

I got everything up and running and already did a quick session in Elite Dangerous in VR.

Holy smokes! This joystick blows everything out of the water, and I've tried the X52, Logitech Wingman 3D, T16000m FCS and one or two others. What an amazing buttery smooth feel this joystick has. Very reasonable price too, considering the quality.

Well, then you're totally forgiven; not for praising it, but for your joy :)

Overjoyed :)

And the quickstart manual WAS in the box. It must have silently slipped out and went underneath the table while I was unpacking the hardware.
