Gladiator EVO 'Space Combat Edition' Premium

It has a great build quality. The grip feels like an airworthy part, the design is ergonomic (built for large hands I think but still feels good), the switches are great, the movement is smooth and controlled. It makes you want to fly a real twin-engine plane!

It has been working really well for me. Setup was easy. It just worked with DCS World. Will try it out with MSFS soon. Very happy with the purchase

After a lot of research and comparisons, I decided to import the Gladiator EVO 'Space Combat Edition' Premium and the STECS Throttle System Mk.II - Standard from VKB to India — mainly to enhance my experience while playing DCS and Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS) — and I couldn’t be more satisfied with my decision.
The build quality is exceptional — solid, premium feel with precise controls that truly elevate the flight sim experience. It’s clear that VKB takes craftsmanship seriously. The packaging was top-notch, ensuring both products arrived in perfect condition.
What really stood out to me was the support team — they were extremely approachable, responsive, and helpful throughout the ordering and shipping process. I always received prompt replies to any questions I had.
And to top it all off, the delivery to India took just 10 days, which is impressive for an international order.
Highly recommended for anyone serious about flight or space sim hardware!

Delivery: The product was out of stock when I placed the order. However, VKB arranged a shipment directly from their factory. The stick took 2 weeks to be delivered from the date of order.

Assembly: The stick assembly and calibration was straightforward. VKB YT channel has all the guides you need.

Performance: After upgrading from a cheap flight stick, I am very impressed with the performance of the stick. The stick is ergonomic, precise and sturdy. The twist axis was very stiff at first but it started to loosen up. The grease needs time to set it seems.

Looking forward to many hours of flight sim with this stick :)

Special appreciation for Luke Schelosky from VKB team for timely replies and assistance with the order.

Versatile addon, easy to setup device

STECS Throttle System - Mini Plus

Right out of the box the device if mostly plug and play and very accurate and smooth throttle control. Love it

It is good with a lot of buttons to be used. Loved the swappable detent frames along with the customisation for the encoders and different detents.
