I'm interested in the Gunfighter. http://www.vkb-sim.pro/viewtopic.php?t=1947 It looks like it will be a very nice stick, and it will have the ability to use the Warthog grip.
 
I haven't seen a whole lot of info on it, other than it is suppose to be released some time in 2016.

Got an email that the Gladiator Pro will ship by August 15th. They say u can use the adapter 'which is unavailable' to connect my Warhog handle to it. Would really like to try that out.

The first production batch of Gladiator Pro is quite limited, so, if you intend to buy one, please, do not wait too long.

I've got the T-Rudders Mk IV and the pedals are awesome.  The only bad thing about VKB gear is the programming software, which sucks.

Got my Gladiator Pro Friday but was a lemon 'Died 1st Day'. Oh well my luck it happens, gonna have some problems with new products. In contact with Stratojet maybe they can send me the board controller for it and I can put it in myself.
The hour I did get to use it I found a few things I would change. I had to glue a rubber grommet from the hardware store onto the left hat switch to make it usable, you cant push it to the right its to low and obstructed. The Trigger button has a really loud click and the button in the front lower that I usually use for clipboard is a Shift button. My goal is to put my Warthog stick on it when the adapters become available.

Just noticed this from the front page advert, how come we cant get Aces High in there

"This stick appeals to beginners as well as experienced simmers
thanks to its real-world design. It's perfect for today's WWII simulators
like War Thunder, Rise of Flight, IL-2 Sturmovik and World of
Warplanes.

Only problems that I've heard of with either the Gladiator or Gladiator Pro have been some that have received broken or non-working sticks.  Luckily for me, my T-Rudders worked out of the box, have heard some with the T-Rudders Mk IV have had the same issues with receiving broken or non-working pedals.

It's a shame they couldn't name anything close to a sim.

CH has changed since the family sold it to some French industrial manufacturer.
