This is exactly the same setup I've got mine on, was wondering when you'd get around to showcasing it! Happy to say mine has been working flawlessly :)
Congrats on getting it working without a walkthrough! :)
How do you like it? This is the same setup Ive got planned, got the stick already with a Thrustmaster TWCS throttle!
Mine is all ready to go for some star citizen!
Haha, I am here researching this add on for Star Citizen. We keep getting new buttons to bind!
@RistoRisto it is amazing for SC. Still need another for my left stick, but yeah, excellent option for HOTAS or two stick.
Why no. And i mean zero videos for mounting gnx modules to UCM mounts?
I unplug my Gladiators when I'm not using them, as they prevent my PC from letting the monitors shut off when I'm away. Will I have to reprogram the SEM every time I plug my NXT/SEM assembly in, or will everything be fine after I set it up the first time? Also, any hope of seeing previews soon for the space-sim version of the FSM?
All VKB devices have internal memory, so custom settings and calibration are fine when unplugging.
Do the speed/altitude/heading knobs work for airliners on MSFS2020?
@VKBSim Hey, whats up? Can that GNX Module be Instaled at both Right or Left of the GNX Gladiator Evo Stick?
The SEM and THQ modules could be installed on either left or right side of both left and right hand joysticks.
@VKB, does this setup also works with the Omni (left-handed) and all the adjuncts on the left?. Could the OTA interfere with the flaps?
Left OTA with modules positioned on the left side of the base won't work unfortunately. Has to be either no OTA or right side.
Question, is this compatible with the desk mount
If you're asking about the UCM, then the hardware to attach them together is not ready yet, but it's supposed to come out later this year. Any other desk mount would also work with a custom made bottom plate.
Hey @VKB Sim, any news on the angle conversion for the nxt Gladiator premiums? We're REALLY looking forward to them!!
I know there's quite the buzz around them, we're doing all we can to get them out ASAP. Unfortunately the virus is closing different structures everyday in China - local FedEx center has been closed, then the local customs, a production facility etc. We're close to release them though...
@@VKBSim AWESOME! That's all I need to know. We understand! Loving the sticks and modules I have now though BTW..
@@MarcJMusic Glad to hear it :) Hopefully really soon you'll have the complete set!
Can you directly connect the GNX FSM - GA to the omni throttle or do you need the connector or another module to hook it to first?
Technically yes, but you need a special cable. Also, the FSM module doesn't attach directly to a Gladiator joystick, it could me only installed on a MFH or some custom mounts.

would this exact combo work ok on a mount?
The MFH would be a bit too large for a regular mount plate, but you can take it out, get the Glad and the side module installed on the plate and the FSM-GA attached to the vertical post of the mount.
I'm looking to set up a HOSAS rig. I have multiple Omega GT cockpit stands and was looking to attach a Gladiator EVO on the right side mount, and a Gladiator EVO Omni on the left.
My question is how strong are these attachment pieces? The bottom plates of these products are metal, but is the piece that attaches the side components to the joystick metal also, or plastic? I'm asking b/c those components would be free hanging, and I want to know if they would be sturdy enough being attached to the joystick with only support under the joystick, or would I need to weld something together to fit under the whole unit for support?
I have a separate stand for MSFS with all my Flight sim peripherals, and stand for Farming Sim 22 with all it's peripherals, and now I'm looking to create a new stand specifically for Star Citizen. It's so much nicer having a stand with corresponding peripherals, with all hardware attached to a USB hub on the stand itself, so moving between stands and games is as simple as plugging 1 USB into my computer and plugging up the USB hub to the power supply. I don't like anything attached to my desk.
If you plan to mount the NXT/EVO joysticks to your stand, then attach a module to the side of the Gladiator(s), then that would work, even if the module is hanging in the air with no base support. I suggest to use this reinforcement lplate vkbcontrollers.com/?product=module-to-gladiator-nxt-base-l-reinforcing-plate.
This will make it relatively sturdy, you could use it or rest your hand on it, but it might get damaged if it'll get kicked by mistake.
@@VKBSim thanks for the reply. I just wasn't sure if the plastic where they join was thick enough to support it, if they'd sag over time, or snap easily with no support underneath just with hand weight or an accidental bump. Kicked, yea. Anything plastic can break if kicked haha.
Appreciate it.
@@skydriver5709 They definitely won't sag. Good quality material, also not heavy at all.
I have the sem module and the fsm ga module. When I plug them in the fsm module isn’t recognized in devconfig. The only thing I’ve changed since moving my setup is using a longer usb c to c cable. Do I need to have a specific type of c to c cable?
Yes, it has to be a data cable. Some of those cables are charging only.
Gotcha I’ll try a different cable. Thanks for the help.
Can you mount the assembly on a desk mount?
If it has a large enough plate, then yes.
@@VKBSim Cool, so I don't have to bolt the NXT modules on the plate ... which is obvious bcz the stick itself is bolted down. All I need to get is the larger plate to withstand the pressure. Thanks!
Looking at the ww2 throttle combo. Can that mount be separated from the bottom portion in this video. Hard to explain but if I wanted to have the verticals sem sitting in the mount and not connected to anything else without the arms sticking out. Ordered a stick from you guys and should of ordered throttle at same time. I can’t make up my mind between. The Omni and ww2 throttle. Will mostly be used for il2 with some squad heli and sc occasionally
Sorry, could you please elaborate a bit so I could provide the best option? Can't quite understand where you're aiming.
can we attache the sem to the right side of the stick?
Yes, of course.
does is comes with a longer cable or can we plug it into left 3pin header in the stick and the right 4pin header on the SEM?@@VKBSim
@@AkilaParakrama The SEM comes with a 3 wires cable which will help connecting it to the EVO.
cool, orded the bundle@@VKBSim
