VKB Gladiator NXT offset extension

This is an extension for the VKB Gladiator NXT. It adds 120mm in length and 70mm offset to the rear. As requested by another user over Thingiverse I also added versions where the grip is twisted 5 or 10 degrees to the left. Using the medium springs you will get pretty much the same feel as with the soft springs without the extension. Please note that I cannot guarantee that this mod won't damage your gimbal although I've never had any problems.

You don't need any additional hardware as you can use the screws from the original side covers of the base. You could probably also use some M2,5 screws instead. The cable of course needs to be lengthened by about 16cm. Alternatively, You could make a new cable which I did using some pre-crimped JST-GH cables.

I recommend printing it as shown in the picture tilted at 30° for good strength and printability. In this orientation, supports are only needed for the overhangs on the outside. The file is optimised to be printed like this on a stock CR-10S Pro V2. If you run into any problems concerning the fit of the grip in the extension or the extension in the base I recommend playing around with horizontal expansion.
