Customer Ratings & Reviews

Compared to my previous HOTAS, a Saitek X52, I prefer this. Once you update the firmware it's reliable and consistent in its performance. It doesn't even spontaneously reboot itself, recalibrating so whatever position it was in at the time of the reboot is suddenly Point Zero. All of these make it a vast improvement over the X52. The one problem I have is the presence of a rocker on the front of the throttle. It's huge so I frequently find myself using it without meaning to. It seems to be hardwired as a backup for the stick's rotation axis so you can't just unbind it either. If it weren't for this I probably would have rated it as a 5.

Great, thoroughly enjoy this new joystick with the flight simulators I have installed on my pc. Great price, BB has not increased price since first trying to order in January 2021. So many other retailers are increasing prices to ridiculous amounts due to pandemic shortages. Did hate the amount of time it took to receive after purchasing and the slow notification of when it was ready for pickup. Thankful to BB to have it and to be using now. If you need a value priced joystick get it.

Super very fast very easy to play, like a real airplane

Average joystick, seems fine but isn’t the best and seems dated. With there were more options. No saved configs in MSFS which is another disappointment if I’m honest. Seems to work fine otherwise.

Limited options on ps5 for flight sim controls but this does its job perfectly for a fair price. Not hard to understand and get use to, smooth handling and good quality. Long cable to connect from a distance I have my ps5 connected to a tv.

Console-ready HOTAS works well with reasonable responsiveness to PS4 and PS5 games. Available software makes setting up for PC use solid as well. Throttle stops in mid-point, which is good for certain games but is mildly irritating for Sims that use the whole range for throttle controle. For the money, there is not a better entry level HOTAS out there. That being said, as it lacks many of the features of other Thrustmaster models and is limited to only 10 buttons if you are looking for a PC HOTAS consider looking up to the next level. For consoles, where options are significantly more limited, this is the one to get if you are using Playstation products.

Works as advertised. Works better when attached unless you bolt down the stick.

Purchased this to play Star Wars Squadrons on my PlayStation and it works flawlessly. The button mapping was pretty flawless on the developers end and it makes the flight experience so much more immersive, especially when paired with PSVR. The best part is it’ll work on PC too when I finally get my Oculus Link set up. Ideally, you want the controls resting on a rigid object and it will be an even better experience if you can mount them. But they work reasonable well on either side of you on a couch.

Works great with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. It was sold out right bwfore christmas everywhere including the manufacturer but was able to get one at the last minute as a gift.

Great flight stick.. great price! I use it all the time for ace combat and love it!!

Easy to use for both PS5 and my PC. Overall great flying experience.

Makes flight sim games and vr games awsome. Plug and play

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.

Love this thing! Works great on flight Sims, even the Star Wars Squadrons game! Only used on my PS4 so far, but definitely recommended for flying games

Good starter for flight simulators like MSFS 2024. Only issue is with throttle and little resistance.

It works great, it's better then expected if ur thinking about getting it go for it

Just received this and am amazed at how simple it was to setup for PC (just download the drivers from thrustmaster.) It works great for X plane 11 and DCS world and for the entry level price point it simply can’t be beat. Extremely impressed

Loved it. Must have for your PS5 MSFS2024 playing experience.

Works great for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 for PS5. Good response and customization available!

Very happy with this product does everything and more for my msfs on the ps5 pro
