## Description

Thrustmaster is thrilled to launch its first civil aviation-related gaming accessory, officially licensed by Airbus, for an intuitive and realistic flight experience. This ergonomic replica of the Airbus sidestick (A320/A320neo type, 1:1 scale) features 12 remappable action buttons offering a multitude of possibilities, plus a built-in throttle axis with thrust reverser mechanism (a unique feature on airliners).

Review: Good starter stick - This is a good starter flight stick. I am a weekend warrior when it comes to flight sims and do not want a large sim setup. I play MFS24. This flight stick works real well. I was using an Xbox conroller on PC at first and the flight stick has made it easier to land and take off. When in bad weather landing situations, I find the extra amount of play that the flight stick has compared to the controller, gives me a much better experience and more accuracy. I have not crashed a plane since switching. I started with the Thrustmaster HOTAS one and really didn't care for the throttle. It also took up alot of space on the desk when this one barely takes up any. This also has a much better gimble system then the "ball and joint' system that the HOTA one had. The throttle switch is very sensitive, but I got used to it quickly. It was basically plug and play. The game recognized it and many of the actions were pre-assigned to the stick. It was easy to remap everything that I wanted to. It feels good in the hand and has just the right amount of resistance. Even when messing around with the F18 and really pushing the stick, it stays planted on the desk without lifting or sliding. Seems to be a good value for the money.
Review: An Excellent Product - I bought this a few months ago and it is very nice. The quality is good. The engine master switches were slightly bent out of the box, but it was nothing too severe. The engine mode selector is nice and firm. The throttle levers are very smooth and the detents are very clicky. It also feels very heavy (although that's probably because they added some weights, but still good regardless). The unboxing was nice and the quadrant was securely packaged. Setting up was as easy as plugging the thing in. I didn't even have to reconfigure MSFS 2020 at all to use it. The ability to turn off the detents is a very thoughtful feature for flying non-Airbus aircraft. The thrust reverser is very good as well. I also like that they use USB-C for the connection. I can see myself using Thrustmaster flight sim products for a long while. $130 well spent.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Hefty, very well made.
*by K***R on October 7, 2020*

Just got my Sidestick yesterday 10/6/20 and have already flown with it in MSFS2020 and the new Star Wars Rouge Squadrons game and I can say this is one of the best "Joysticks" I have ever bought. It does not feel cheap and in MSFS202 it was very precise in every way. The only negative thing I can say about the stick is that the buttons are laid out in a weird way. On the base the numbering goes Left to right top to bottom, so on the left it is 5,6,7, then below those you have reversed 10,9,8, then on the right top it is still reversed and you have 13,12,11, then below those you have in order 14,15,16. Not sure why they didn't just keep the ordering in logical order with 5,6,7 then 8,9,10 below those and then on right side have 11, 12, 13 and below those have 14, 15,16 all in order? Maybe its a typing thing I don't know as I'm self taught when it comes to typing? However the way it is now, its a little confusing when trying to memorize the buttons. Just something I have to get used to I guess? The only other negative thing and this is not really the joysticks fault is that it cost me twice the price as it is supposed to be like $69 but I had to pay almost double that as everywhere was out of stock due to all the games that need a flight stick being released close together, so that's more of a supply and demand thing and not truly a negative on the product. Hopefully they will come back down in price soon. All in All a very good joystick and I am very pleased I got it!
