Gladiator EVO 'Space Combat Edition' Premium

The Gladiator EVO Premium is the basis of a modular VKB flight control system.

The 'Space Combat' grip is the most versatile of our grips and is equally suitable for flight and space simulation games.
With lots of buttons and axes you may configure the controller to your own personal needs and depending on the aircraft or spacecraft you fly.

    Stop reading and go buy one!

    Honestly This buy was way better than anticipated! I'd read the reviews, watched the video's and expected a high end product for a well-priced medium and yet it still felt better than I had hoped for. Sure some people claim there's better on the market but not for the price-point. All the spares that come with it, the rock solid, accurate feel of it.....honestly cannot fault this bad boy! Can't afford one? Nor could I but keep on saving till you can because compared to the other brands that are only a few bucks cheaper these are on a whole new level!

    Fantastic product and service!!!

    Fantastic Product and Service
    I ordered the VKB Gladiator from VKB Australia and couldn't be happier. The product itself is excellent — solid build quality, smooth precision, and a noticeable upgrade over anything else in its class. What really stood out was the top-notch service: great communication and genuine care for the customer. Highly recommend both the stick and the team behind it.

    Absolutely Awesome!

    This is my second Joystick from VKB. After playing for 1 month with my first joystick, I knew I needed a second one.
    Playing Star Citizen is just so good now!!!
    Thanks VKB
    Can you send me some Pedals I can test? hahaha

    Awesome joysticks

    I bought this as a left/right pair, so my review is relevant to them both.
    The joysticks are awesome. I upgraded from an X56 and the build quality was noticeable. Smooth operation for axis and buttons, and feel solid. No complaints with setup either, and I look forward to further customising my setup as I get more use from them.
    I use them mostly with Star Citizen (HOSAS), DCS and MS FS2020 (both HOTAS), and they are just a pleasure to use.
    Very fast delivery, I ordered them on a Sunday night and they were being setup on the following Wednesday.
