How to turn the grip by the 5 degrees

[yoyo]

Hi,

Just wondering how to turn the grip (KG12) by the 5 degrees, I'm assuming it is a case of undoing the screws just under the hand rest (in line with where it says Knuppelgriff KG12), turning it then tightening, but I don't want to break anything, and couldn't find info in the online quick start.

Thanks.

That is the correct way. Just hold the grip in desired position while tightening the fastener.

I undid those two screws I was looking at and it just removed the wrist rest. Attempting to undo a couple of screws that were then visible on the grip I felt the grip coming giving as if to come apart rather than rotate, so re-tightened them. Is there any video or directions, or diagram that shows what the process is please?

Generally a diagram of the stick with parts labeled would be handy in the quick start. The names of the parts are not apparrent to people who may not be engineeringly minded (I just about know what a cam is for example)

Wait, we're talking here about a KG12 grip on a GunFighter base, not about a Gladiator MKII, right? In this case, you have to release the fastener which connects the grip to the base. The grip on the Gladiator MKII base is not adjustable.

Its a gunfighter mk III with kg12 grip

Then you're good to go, as explained above. And here's a video to clarify how the fastener works.

I may be missing somethign but watching that video it is a different stick/base and refers to locking the twist (rudder) function.

I don't have a twist stick (or at least dont think that is a feature!), what I want to do is turn the stick by the 5 degrees to make it more ergonomic, more comfortable. I asked if this was a feature of it on this forum and was told yes, but I can't clearly see how to alter the grip to the 5 degrees angle. I'm hesitant to just take it apart and try unscrewing things as all the guides about these sticks stress to take caution doing everything!

I posted the video so you could see where the fastener is. All you have to do is release the fastener a bit so the grip starts rotating, find the proper position, hold the grip in place pressing on it gently and tighten the fastener. You don't have to take the grip off the base or remove the fastener. Just release it and fix it in the new position.

OK I got there in the end thanks, I think you misunderstood which screws I originally meant and some of your other statements then threw me a bit.

If anyone else is ever confused and reads this thread:

Just simply don't hold the grip straight when fastening it to the base; turn it slightly. Done.

I had been looking for a seperate way of twisting the whole shaft. (facepalm)
