I've been using this for a month now with DCS F18 and love every moment of it. It cost a bit more but purchasing through Mighty Ape saved me the hassle of going through Amazon or AliExpress. I saved me about $100 compared to other NZ outfits who charged a bit more. Setting up was a breeze plugged both usb ports into the computer and DCS picked it up right away. I downloaded Spud knockers profile and had to reference the chart a lot for which buttons and switches were mapped too. I'm also using this with TrackIR and on a curved widescreen and has added to a wonderful flight experience.

I decided to replace a 14 year old HOTAS system that really worked just fine but I wanted to upgrade my flight rig. I split my time between flight sims and racing sims depending on my current whims.

Best price for this joystick/throttle combo I've found. Ordering was easy and shipping was donemquickly. Very satisfied.

With the software supplied by Thrustmaster, you have several configuration options other than the standards that both come with the Joystick and downloadable. It feels like a real stick and response time is great.

I purchased this on a whim and ended up getting drawn into the flight sim world. This throttle/stick combo has a very solid feel, very heavy, metal, and comes with TARGET software to configure just about anything. I've used it thus far with DCS World and Prepar3d. Excellent.

High quality setup as it should be due to the price. Easy setup out of the box, everything works perfectly. Amazing joystick for DCS World, especially the A10c.

This joystick set up is amazing. A prefect companion for DCS and flexible enough to suit any flight sim or space sim game. For the helicopter simmers out there you can even get extensions. Build quality is excellent. Can't comment on software as its basically already set up in DCS world which is what I use mine for. Overall a 10/10

Excellent equipment easy to control and precision absolutely fantastic

The best Hotas on the market without a shadow of a doubt. Yes it is expensive, but the quality in comparison to some of the cheaper hotas's available is beyond compare. Only downside to this is that you really need a pair of rudders to gain the most from the Hotas as unlike cheaper models it doesn;t...

Amount of Programmable buttons; Build Quality

No Twist Rudder

We highly recommend picking up a set of rudder pedals to accompany this HOTAS setup (MFG Crosswind), as there is no cheesy twist rudder axis found with many others on the market.

Excellent construction; quality metal materials used, highly customizable, and excellent configuration software! This is just a plain out fantastic set of flight hardware

The only con I can come up with this HOTAS is that the stock stick centering spring tension is a tad stiff and can become a bit laborious to fly with over 'hours' of flight time; I am a lady pilot, and this stick does wear on my right shoulder after a few hours of intense aerial combat.
