Thrustmaster T16000M FCS Flight Pack (Compatible with PC)

Great sticks for star citizen
what’s not to love about these sticks. They are very sturdy, extremely responsive in game and have 32 buttons that can be mapped out to any key you want. I found them easy to customize in star citizen. They make flying so much more fun and they give you a level of control, you can’t get from a keyboard and mouse. If you are looking for a starter set of sticks that won’t break the bank these are it. I’ve tried a cheaper set and it only lasted a few days. These ones are very sturdy and well built. I expect them to last for a long time.They are setup one for each hand when you get them although it comes with the adapters so you can change them around and have two right or two left handed ones, if you wanted to share with someone instead of using two sticks at once. I will say there is a little bit of a learning curve going from keyboard and mouse to joysticks. That said, it doesn’t take long to get used to them and all the buttons. They are so customizable, you don’t have to use anything else while in flight mode. I don’t recommend for running around on foot but they weren’t meant for that. I do however, recommend them for flying.

Excellent throttle for the price – a step up from my aging CH Products Throttle
After a good 13 or so years, and with it still working fairly strongly, I reluctantly began a search to replace my CH Products Throttle. The free-form x/y access hadn’t properly been reporting for a while, and the max and min on the z axis were a little shaky. Amazingly, I could actually still buy the exact same throttle from CH, but in the intervening years the resolution on the controllers means that you can get something that is that much more precise.Enter the rolls-off-the-tongue Thrustmaster VG TWCS Throttle Controller. I got it at quite a discount off of the normal retail, which heavily swayed it in favor of a purchase. I’m not necessarily going to find myself in a situation needing to control the throttle of my two engines independently, so it being a single throttle was not an issue for me. Ideally it lasts the decade+ of the CH Products, but I’m not holding my breath. First, the good:* Can be used independently of the joystick (i.e. I’m using a CH Products joystick and rudder), with a note that you’ll lose the ability to use most mapping software if your game doesn’t support multiple joysticks (which hasn’t been a problem for most games for years now, but worth a note)* Bevy of buttons, and it’s enough to meet my needs flying DCS. (The pinky potentiometer really does wonders when trying to control radar elevation) Broadly speaking, the buttons are well placed and if your hand is in the right position, everything but the big orange thumb one can be accessed with ease. (In my setup, that gets mapped to TrackIR’s centering, so doesn’t get used a ton)* Like most modern joysticks, does >8 bit resolution on the axis elements, so you get a more fine grained control as you use whichever axis. It has made a great deal of difference on those Helicopter modules in DCS over my older throttle.* Orange accents means that I get more of my favorite color on my desk* Slide action is smooth, base is sturdy / weighty / grippy enough not to move around when you’re in the heat of it. All of the axis controls are similarly tight and work well, smooth in action but otherwise staying firmly in place.Downsides:- Ergonomics could stand a bit of work. Compared to the CH Products Throttle, which required some Seinfeld “Man Hands” to operate all of the buttons effectively from resting position, from rest my hands only have a problem reaching the big orange “thumb” button on the right-hand side. Ergonomically, however, my hand doesn’t naturally seem to find the proper placement – I have to really think about getting it lined up – which was the exact opposite of my experience with the CH Products. I haven’t had any greater issues with long-term holding of the throttle than with the CH Products.- Slide action can be a little less than smooth if using it at the ‘wrong’ angle – and it’s sometimes difficult to avoid that ‘wrong’ angleAll told this was a good purchase for the price I paid for it. Compared with my old throttle (the same model still being sold 13 years later), this was about half the price. The matching joystick really won’t cut it for anything semi-serious, but this throttle is the gem of the set.

Produto Muito bom, qualidade bem legal e chegou rapidinho, tive um problema nos botões de aceleração (Eixo Z) mas isso não tem nada a ver com a qualidade do produto, e sim um problema aleatório que infelizmente tive o azar de ter. Falei com o vendedor que foi 100% atencioso e resolveu tudo prontamente.No futuro se precisar de outros itens certamente comprarei com ele novamente.

Es claramente lo mejor en calidad-precio. Al principio me pensaba comprar el TCA (que es el mismo que este joystick, pero con la apariencia de Airbus) pero estaba agotadisimo, y al final decidí gastarme un poco más y comprarme este con el HOTAS. Juego al Flight Simulator con este set y es UNA DELICIA. Es de plástico pero no se nota para nada “plasticoso”. Es un plástico de buena calidad.Lo bueno que tiene el joystick es que tiene exactamente el mismo sensor que el Warthog de ThrustMaster de 500€. La sensibilidad es excelente y se siente muy cómoda la mano. Además tiene muchas setas y joysticks que son muy útiles para mover la cámara, etc. Al igual que el HOTAS.Hablando del Hotas, además de ser comodísimo, dispone de una ruede cita de trim (compensador) que es muy muy útil y cómoda de utilizar. Compra totalmente recomendada. Estoy contentísimo.Muy recomendado. Lo estoy disfrutando mucho.
