Basic MSFS controls for VKB Gladiator joystick

[@Sveinn1984]

Excellent breakdown, thank you. Programming flight controls is a bit daunting but I really wanted to get a nice setup for flight sims. This will help immensely.

Superb example of plain language tuition, just got my stick and found the amount of controls overwhelming but thanks to you the mist has cleared ! Keep up the good work. Many thanks.

Stumbled across this video whilst trying to set up a new stick today. Thank you. So clear and easy to follow. I had it set up in no time. Thanks again.

[@BravoMike14]

Thank you very much for your explanations.

[@LandonNorth-g1m]

Really appreciate the time you took to do this....great explanation !

[@ThatOneDudeNick]

Thanks for showing the buttons on the stick. I've been looking for bindings nobody ever shows which button they are pressing, so "button 24" or whatever means absolutely nothing to me without knowing where it is. Sucks that MSFS doesn't have default controls for such a popular stick.

Thanks bud, this really helped me get in the air for my setup.

[@rogerpaige4132]

Great! Thanks do much for doing this, it's really a big help for a first time MSFSimmer actually getting into the air!

[@Noidhole88]

Nice man, thanks. I have a HOSAS setup for a space simulation but I'm sure I can get that to work with FS 2024. Thanks for getting it started.

[@monarch8188]

This is what I was looking for! Thanks!

[@delorges1516]

thank you very much! helped me a lot with fs25

[@JtheMitch]

what a hero, i can finally play the game

[@TheRagingRonin]

You saved me; thanks a lot!

[@MCtheSnake]

Yoo thank you man, i honestly had no idea what i was doing 😂❤

[@FeAbou]

Thanks, man, you helped me a lot!

[@mikeykasian]

I was really hoping that you could do a twin of this video for the upcoming Microsoft flight simulator 2024 as apparently you can't import settings from 2020 version because they changed the button mapping program. So I would be very grateful if you wouldn't mind doing it for the new version that comes out in like 3 weeks. Thanks for your help!!!

[@plagiats]

I just followed this on MSFS2024, it's really the same menu.

[@mikeykasian]

To do the left hand Throttle you just use the joystick for the Throttle imput by pushing it forward after hitting the scanning button and it will automatically pair the joysticks.

[@oldgamer1330]

Hi, Do you know if there is any way to renumber the buttons ( eg fire trigger is button number 10 but I would like it to be number 1) Thanks.

[@mikeykasian]

Hey this is great! How would I configure the left hand version of the omni Throttle that matches this stick?

[@bpoole31]

Thank you for this!! I would like to know some additional mappings you recommend.

[@untoldforce]

The vast majority of additional mappings are camera controls. I have an entire VKB Omnithrottle joystick just for camera control-from cockpit view, external view, and drone camera!

[@captpugwash3510]

Well done thanks. Have to ask if I may, what wide screen do you have ?

[@georgegeranios2918]

Thank you for this.

[@Radiant26]

Are you able to actually use that mount on that glass table? I have a similar table and have been wanting to get a mount. Was unsure if a table like that could be used for mounting.

[@untoldforce]

@@Radiant26 there's a 2x6 under the glass that provides most of the support

[@alapjani8508]

Thank you so much for this video. I was not sure of the compatility with MSFS and how to set it up. BTW, Are you facing any rudder twitching issues with this joystick? I have had two Thrustmaster Airbus joysticks before considering Gladiator NXT Evo.

[@untoldforce]

I use pedals so I have a profile with the twist axis (rudder) unbound. I've had "twitching" problems when two or more devices are both bound to the rudder and they fight each other in MSFS for control, so try to only leave one bound at any given time!

[@alapjani8508]

Thanks. I have got the Gladiator NXT joystick and it’s been great so far. Will surely keep an eye on conflicting commands but so far no complaints.

[@limitrofl]

Thank you♥

Cool video. But clean your desktop ffs...
