Gladiator EVO 'Space Combat Edition' Standard

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

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.

    The twist axis is the only thing letting these sticks down

    As I said in my premium stick review. The twist needs to be either clutch or cam adjustable to suit the rest of the tuning for the use as "Space Combat Edition" versions. For space dogfighting combat you need the sticks to be soft and the clutch adjustment system is perfect for that! But the twist on the stick is still for flight Sims and is very heavy and a battle to use for Star Citizen. Please implement a clutch or cam adjustment system to the twist on you space combat versions of your premium and standard sticks please. The bases are perfect! Make the twist on the stick perfect now too please!!!

    This is why I have given a 4 star review.

    Good Product

    The only regret, I didn't get this earlier. It's a budget stick, but good quality. I bought it flight simulator, so I think the standard edition is good enough for me. Highly recommended it if you have budget constraints on this type of stick.

    Great product

    I’ve never used flight stocks before, but after watching some people playing Star Citizen and a few other games I got intrigued. I knew I wanted to buy something that wouldn’t lead me to wish I’d bought something else. After asking some questions in the community it all pointed to VKB and I can see now why that is. Very easy to follow assembly and calibration instructions made it quick and easy to get straight in. Top quality 👌
