Hi I am not sure.

Is it possible to connect a module to a nxt with the câble : https://flightsimcontrols.com/product/g ... ace-cable/ ?

And if yes, How the câble will suit the nxt? It possible to do something clean?

Thx.

That cable is only for interconnecting NXT modules, not for plugging to USB. If you want to plug NXT modules to USB you will need a GNX HID Controller, which comes with an USB cable.

We don't have longer cables for interconnecting the NXT modules, but extending the cable would be a very easy DIY project.

Got it. But you should sell this kind of câble solution. As virpil give câble to connect a panel to another one.

We are providing cables too to connect the modules when they're linked together. If the modules are separate the official solution is to upgrade the module with a GNX HID controller board, which would make that module an independent USB device, so it doesn't have to get connected to a Gladiator joystick anymore.

Sorry but this is not what I mean. I mean a "real" câble to connect the module to the nxt. Because I want to connect it to my nxt Without using another USB pc port. In your case jst2 to jst2 with a strong câble maybe about 50cm long.

I understood what you meant, I just offered you alternatives to your setup. The design of these modules is they would work together. And if they're spread around your desk they would act as separate devices.
