I just ordered a second Gunfighter and was wondering if there was a way to plug it in via the black box attached to my first stick. There's are a pair of empty plugs on it labeled "Pedals" and one labeled "Bus". Is there a cable to connect my second stick directly to the black box for the first stick and then to my computer from there?
Or does it have to be to the second black box to the computer via a second USB cable?
Is it possible to link two Gunfighters to one Black Box?

This is a pretty obvious question; many people were wondering.
For now, use two black boxes. But it is not a once forever answer. We are thinking about it.

Not forever
We understand the demand for it, but there are many things times more urgent.

We're sick and tired of being pushed and pressed. Once we leak anything, or just tell that we are working on something, the public reaction is like we firmly promised to deliver it by next Monday, and if we don't - we're suckers, losers, etc. At some point we just realized that internet is not just a circle of friendly hobbyists but a pretty murky puddle. So now it is no any announcements till the product is ready to be shipped.

VKB aren't doing it for you or me.
You know what? I don't even think they're doing it for the money.
From everything I see, they're doing it for the joy of excellence in engineering and boy are they excellent engineers.
I reckon I've got my head round VKB's approach now and am at peace with it. VKB will make what they make and 'it' will be beyond fantastic.
When they make 'it, how many of 'it' they make at a given time and how easy it is to get for us is not worth worrying about, it's kinda like seeing a shooting star, you feel happy and lucky if you do

I'm hoping for one black box for stick, rudders... and throttle.

The black box has been announced to be able to process one stick, rudders and throttle:

"There are two ways the TECS can be connected to the computer: directly via USB, and via bus – by passing the data through the BlackBox. This way, it becomes possible to combine all control systems (the control grip + throttle control + pedals + extension panels) in one uncompromisingly rigid and integral piloting complex."
