I don’t understand the problem. Of course, the VKB Gladiator will be listed in the controls in 2024.
PS: By the way, it is a fantastic joystick!

I don’t have 2024. How do you assign it? Axis and Ohs ?
Edit- saw the succeeding comments.
Is that due to the center detent I see some people comment on?
Yes, that’s what I was referring to. The gimbal has a mild center detent - I got used to it quickly.
One thing to consider regarding the Gladiator - VKB provides a set of default 20# springs for the X and Y axes, along with several spares. In addition, they provide a full set of 10# springs for those who like less resistance, and another set of 30# springs for those who prefer more. Further, the base of the stick mechanism has independent dampers on the X and Y axes for those who want more or less dampened spring return motion. I think others noted above you can remove the springs entirely from one or both axes, and adjust the dampers to merely provide motion resistance or lock one axis entirely if you want - this is super useful for those who have a stick configured as a helicopter collective. It’s a really great stick, and ridiculously customizable in both hardware and firmware.
Its listed for me in the left column, but in the right space there’s a big question mark.
If you haven’t already done so, it might be worthwhile firing up VKBDevConfig and reflashing the firmware. The sim should ID it and every button/hat/axis should be configurable like any other controller.
