Arkhamuk Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 Hi all, Just bought the VKB Gladiator MK2 ($99 version) and I notice the grip "points" slightly left rather than on the centre line From looking around this seems perfectly normal but i just wondered why it might be made like that?
Thad Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 Salutations, My guess is that it was this way it was preferred during testing the joystick. If it is setup for use between ones legs the left tilt may have proved more comfortable over time. 1

This is intentional. Apparently it is more comfortable to use when the grip itself is rotated slightly to the left. Grip of the Pro version of Gladiator can be adjusted (rotated) as preffered.

Arkhamuk Posted June 26, 2018 Author Posted June 26, 2018 Thanks guys. Having moved the stick to a "between the legs" position i can see its more comfortable.
303_Bies Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 The grip is modeled on german KG13 grip from Bf109's, FW190's, Me262's, Ju87's etc. The real grip is asymmetric even more. It is intentional. cheers
