Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought one of these from best buy several years ago, and I can tell you with confidence to NOT buy this product. I had issues with stick drift (yaw) within a few months of purchase. Apparently there's no fix so their only solution is to replace it, until it breaks again ~3 months later, wash, rinse, repeat. Look online, do a Google search and you'll see that there's an inordinate amount of people with the same problem: stick drift. You would think that after so many warranty replacements they would redesign the product, but nope still the same shoddy design as the original. So, yeah, avoid Thrustmaster products at all costs. If they do so horribly with this product, no telling how problematic their other products are. Best to stick with turtle beach's option, or something, anything else but Thrustmaster.

I had to return it and get a refund because it wasn't working out for me on my computer but I still say it was a good stick just wasn't for me maybe for Xbox but not much good for PC

Great product. Well build and fun to use. Good quality.

This product is solid and well built. This flight control is allowed by the FAA to study for a pilots license using the approved programs. I bought it for a real flight simulator. Fully programable for any type of aircraft.

Very good starter if you're into DCS or flight simulation. Robust and maintains calibration.

very good nice handle to it hard to master tho would recommend.

Delivered faster than expected. Perfect condition even though it was an open box item.

Great flight controls. Especially good for combat flight games.

My grandson was very happy with this controller. And it was a better price than Amazon

This product is absolute garbage. Seems great for 1st 3 months, and then it becomes worthless. I’d expect a little more for the price. Thinking maybe a fluke I got a second one being rated so well. Same thing within 3 months. This time I was able to return and replace. Same thing another 3 months later. Wow. Cannot be a coincidence. Not sure how this is rated so well as it seems like a con. What’s wrong with it? At about that 3 month mark flight control starts to produce a slight drift becoming more pronounced. No amount of tightening, loosening and calibration helps resolve the issue unless you feel like taking a new product apart to use. I don’t. I want something of better quality that I pay for. Needless to say maybe. You can live with this drift and need to have constant pressure the flight stick. That brings me to going into a sub menu that shakes so bad you can make a selection or takes so long to do do you just go back to a controller. Don’t waste your money.

The first time I used it the x button quit working. It was to late to turn it in to Bestbuy so I contacted Thrustmaster customer support. The first person said they could not repair it because Thrustmaster does not make them. I then talked to a person from another country who I could barely understand. They were to send me an email with instructions on how to send it to them. They never sent the email so I called back and they promised to send another email. It is fun to use but I would not recommend it . Poorly made and terrible customer support.

Junk. Z Rotation will program, but not function in games. No game I have will even recognize the throttle; won't even come up as a "slider" option. Trashcan and back to the Logitech 3D. Total waste of money used on PC.

There is nothing to assemble out of the box, unless you want to attach the throttle to the joystick using the included allen wrench. Just plug the unit into a USB port and go. I'm using it with Microsoft Flight Simulator, and it works perfectly.
