ngabor Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 Hi! I would like to make an extension for my Ravcore Javelin. (It is an OEM VKB Gladiator sold in Europe.) It seems to be easy, I just have to disconnect the cable coming from the base inside the grip then connect them with and extention cable (and make an extention tube of course). The problem is I don't know the type of the connectors used in the stick. (I just bought a standard three pin fan extetion cabel just to realize it is too big.) I dont want to permanently solder the extention cabels so I need plugs/connectors. If anyone knows, please let me know what kind of cable/connector/plug is used in the VKB sticks, and how sould I search for it, where can Buy one. Here is an image with the actual connection marked on it. And another disconencted (it is the actual stick) Thank you. P.S.: I know I sould buy a Gunfighter base with Gladiator Pro grip and extention but sadly it is well over my budget...Anyways, feel free to send me one for Christmas

Sokol1 Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 Since this pre-wired connectors in Aliexpress came with short wires, for assembly JST PH connectors is required an appropriated crimp tool: https://ru.aliexpress.com/wholesale?catId=0&initiative_id=SB_20190605065507&SearchText=jst+ph+2.0+cimp+tool&switch_new_app=y In that case I just cut the original cables a inch or two above connectors and add wire extensions.
ngabor Posted June 6, 2019 Author Posted June 6, 2019 Thanks for the advise! Although I found a package with 5 male and 5 female plugs preassembled. One can make the desired cabel from this without the crimp tool. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/5Sets-Mini-Micro-2-0-PH-Connector-Male-Female-2-3-4-5-6-Pin-Plug/32972303673.html?spm=2114.search0104.3.38.148f17e6iyYWpb&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_2_10065_10068_319_10059_10884_317_10887_10696_321_322_10084_453_10083_454_10103_10618_10304_10307_10820_10821_537_10302_536,searchweb201603_52,ppcSwitch_0&algo_expid=2607017b-6336-4ed6-b83b-6b09d89284c4-5&algo_pvid=2607017b-6336-4ed6-b83b-6b09d89284c4&transAbTest=ae803_5
