    Best entry level Hotas Joystick for the money!

    Very solid joystick. Using it to play Star Wars Squadrons on PS4. PS4 recognized it without incident. Has all of the buttons you would need to play most flight games. If you're a hardcore flight sim person, you'll want a higher priced, option, but you already kew that. One cool feature is that the throttle and joystick bases do separate, so you can have them physically linked together as one unit or keep them apart for more space between them.

    Definitely going to take the game to another level. The only way to play flight games. Only draw back is the build quality. I got a few months out of my first one before the flight stick started acting up but I replaced it with a new one and hopefully it will last.

    The HOTAS works great for the Ace Combat VR missions. It helped me a lot since the dual shock controls were on the wrong sticks for someone who flies radio control models. It made the dual shock unusable. Thrustmaster saved the day for a reasonable price. About the VR missions, I did hurt my neck a bit yanking and banking. Looking over your shoulder in the VR gear then snapping back the other way while tracking a target with your eyes. You need to be careful how fast you move.

    Pretty good (but not perfect) flight stick option

    Pretty good flight stick. Would like to see: a) It work with FS2020 out of the box or at least with Windows driver updates. Instead, you need to download fromLogitech. and b) buttons dedicated to trim (rudder, aileron and elevator) after all- it IS a flight stick right? Other than those minor issues, it’s a decent stick for the money.

    I hope more games are centered around flight / space games. This controller feels great and easy to learn.

    Bought this for the new Flight Simulator. I'm a beginner and didn't want to jump in too deep. The stick performs great, now. The initial set, required a firmware update to the controls. After that it worked fine. One other small gripe is the wire control. Just takes a little work to get it right.

    Works amazing for Ace Combat 7. This is my first flight stick but I didn't not want to pay 199.99 for the official hori AC7 stick. No force feedback is the only thing i wish it had or some rumble feature. I paid 56.99 when on sale. Worth every penny.

    This flight stick i use for Elite Dangerous, Ace Combat 7 and Project Wingman. Really makes flying immersive. So far works well. Had to rebind keys for project wingman and elite dangerous which i play on pc while ace combat on ps5 was ready to go. Really liking it and is great stick if you need it for both pc and ps4/5.

    If you plan on playing simple flight simulator games, I would suggest grabbing this controller. It doesn't have a lot of buttons, but all the buttons are programmable. I had to add some foot rudders in order to properly utilize this joystick. Whether you have the foot pedals or not, very useful in making all those other starships look like old men driving at 20 mph. May the force be with you!

    You get exactly what you pay for. It works well once you figure it out. The main Isuzu’s I have is that you can’t really use the two controllers if they are attached because they are so close together. I feel like it would have been a better system if it was made without that option. If you purchase, plan on having a setup that allows you to use them unattached. It is more realistic that way anyway.

    Good controls, but needs a solid surface

    Great control, but is not couch friendly. When combined, the feel is that it’s all too close together and pops apart easily. When apart, it’s clear that you need to have it on a keyboard lap tray or table of some sort. When stable, the controls are pretty tight with acceptable deadzones and comfortable layout.

    Great flight controller for the price

    I got this for Ace Combat 7. I played the other variations with the playstation controller and my fingers would slide off when avoiding bandits and missiles. Only issues with the controller is that the button on the right side of the flight stick gets hit with my index finger and it changes the weapon load out. Other issue is that the throttle doesn't have a heavy resistance when operating it.

    The handling and precision of this controller is top notch. The only thing keeping it from being a 5 star review is it is a bit small in my hands. I am 6'5" with rather large hands so the grip isn't as comfortable as it could be. Otherwise I am extremely happy with my purchase of this unit.

    Overall, the T.Flight HOTAS 4 is a good option for the PC. I used it to play MFS 2020 and Star Wars Squadrons. The hardware feels like decent quality, but the software leaves a bit to be desired. Updating the firmware was a hassle and not a smooth experience at all. But using the HOTAS in game was a pleasure.

    This is an awesome hotas. It is auto detected by flight simulator 2020 and you don't have to map any of the buttons on pc. Just make sure you go to the website and install the latest driver . It has buttons on the back of throttle and other areas which is nice . You can twist the stick to control the rudders or you can buy seperate rudder peddles and it connects to this .

    Definite must if you're into flying seriously and into Star Wars Squadron. Heavy build and very responsive to all the necessary movements. Price is alright but you can wait until you see this is on sale.

    Cheap hotas that i use on flight simulator 2020 on pc. Havent used it on the ps4 yet. But if you just want something cheap to goof off in flight simulator, this drasticslly improves flight sim experience vs controllers. Basic , cheap, and works. Doesnt pretend to be a high dollar hotas, but it feela durable enough to let the kids try.
