So, I recently treated myself to the VKB Gladiator NXT EVO Joystick and VKB Gladiator NXT EVO Omni Throttle to fly and Elite Dangerous and what a great piece of kit VKB makes. The extras and replacement parts that come with them is a breath of fresh air for a company to supply replacement parts and alternative parts with the purchase rather than a pay the company more for everything. Well done VKB.

I liked them so much I added I just added the Side extension module,.and found it can only be added to the left. Which can't work with the Omni Throttle with the way it is angled and I didn't want it on the joystick, yes I know I'm fussy and wanted it attached to the right side of the Omni throttle. No matter I thought it is designed to be attached either side except.... The JST cable isn't long enough!!!!! for everything that VKB adds in the box a double length cable surely a double length cable isn't too much to ask?!!

And yes apparently it's easy to obtain a JST PH 4 pin female to Female cable as far as Reddit and Google says. No it's not.. female to Female is really hard to find. I ended up buying the parts and creating the cable myself but wow is it fiddly with the teeny cable.

Anyone know if there is a reason they don't include a cable long enough to go either or is it just and oversight on VKB's part?
