About this product

The Thrustmaster Sol-R5 Flight Base is designed as a flexible foundation for PC flight and space simulation setups, built around Hall Effect precision and broad compatibility with other Thrustmaster gear. Rather than locking you into one specific grip, this flight base accepts any detachable grip in the Thrustmaster ecosystem, letting you tailor your overall setup to your preferred flying style without needing to purchase an entirely new base every time you want to change grips. Precision comes from H.E.A.R.T. HallEffect AccuRate Technology, which delivers 16 bit precision on the X and Y axes with zero drift, so your inputs stay accurate and consistent over time rather than degrading the way traditional potentiometer-based sticks can. The base itself is far from bare bones, offering 23 assignable actions through toggle switches, directional pads, a rotary selector, and a built-in mini throttle, plus 3 additional axes, giving pilots a wide range of controls to map directly to the base rather than relying solely on the attached grip. That versatility extends across genres, as the base is built to adapt across space combat, military, and civil aviation simulations, making it a suitable centerpiece for almost any type of flight sim pilot regardless of which kind of aircraft or spacecraft they favor. Physically, the Sol-R5 stays put during use thanks to integrated stability supports and mounting points that anchor it securely to your desk or simulator rig, and it adds a visual flourish with customizable RGB LEDs that let you match the base's lighting to the rest of your setup. Compatible with PC, the Sol-R5 Flight Base combines drift free precision, extensive assignable controls, cross-genre versatility, and secure, customizable mounting into one adaptable foundation for a growing flight simulation collection.

Thrustmaster - Sol-R4 HOTAS Flight Stick and Throttle, Hall Effect Joystick - Black

The Thrustmaster Sol-R4 HOTAS Flight Stick and Throttle is built for PC pilots who want extensive control and long-term durability from their flight simulation hardware. Between the ambidextrous flight stick and the dedicated throttle, the set offers 58 total programmable action buttons, giving pilots enough command coverage for full cockpit control across complex simulation aircraft. Precision throughout the flight stick comes from drift-free Hall Effect axes, which deliver 16-bit precision across all three axes, ensuring smooth, accurate input that holds up over repeated use without the wear associated with older sensor types. The throttle base is similarly feature-rich, packing in switches, directional pads, a selector, a mini throttle, and customizable RGB LEDs, so pilots can build a personalized cockpit layout that suits both their preferred controls and their setup's look. Engine management benefits from 3.1 inches of smooth throttle travel, paired with an adjustable detent, giving pilots granular control from idle all the way to afterburner for more realistic power management during flight. Because the flight stick is removable and the base is modular, the Sol-R4 works within the broader Thrustmaster ecosystem, letting pilots swap grips and bases as their setup or preferences change over time rather than being locked into a single fixed configuration. This expandability, combined with its compatibility with PC, means the Sol-R4 can grow alongside a pilot's simulation setup. With 58 programmable buttons, Hall Effect precision across all three axes, a feature-rich and customizable throttle base, generous adjustable throttle travel, and an expandable, ecosystem-compatible design, the Sol-R4 HOTAS Flight Stick and Throttle offers PC flight simulation enthusiasts a detailed, adaptable, and long-lasting control setup for their cockpit.
