Gladiator Mk2 Upgrades

Hi all,

I have both a Gladiator NXT and the older Gladiator Mk2 (which I am currently using as the throttle in my HOSAS setup).
I actually like the older Gladiator Mk2 stick and don't want to upgrade it to the current NXT, but are there any upgrades to make the stick feel more smooooth like the NXT does instead of being more jerky as it is now?

Also, do any of the currently available angle brackets fit the Mk2, or can anyone point to any aftermarket ones? I would love to make this into an angled throttle with a smooth feel of the NXT...

cheers!

You could open up the Gladiator MKII and regrease it with some Nyogel 767A, but that's pretty much everything that could be done with it. The Gladiator NXT is an upgraded version and it would always feel better than its grandfather :) Also, the MKII won't work with any kind of extensions because it simply haven't been designed to carry the extra stress.
