Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS Hotas Flight Stick and Throttle Stick PC

gamers’ immersion to a whole new level Thrustmaster has devoted its 25 years of expertise in flight sim controllers to meet the growing demand from flight simmers in general – and space simmers in particular – who have requested a mid-range HOTAS joystick. The T.16000M FCS HOTAS has been designed for advanced fliers looking for comprehensive, realistic controls as an alternative to using a mouse and keyboard. It is composed of the T.16000M Flight Control System flight stick and the TWCS (Thrustmaster Weapon Control System) throttle. The T.16000M FCS HOTAS is compatible with PC via USB in Windows 10, 8, 7 and Vista (32-bit and 64-bit).

Ergonomic design for optimum comfort The T.16000M FCS features 4 independent axes, including twist rudder (controlled by rotating the stick), 16 action buttons with “braille”-style physical button identification, one 8-way Point of View (PoV) hat switch. An ergonomic trigger for brake (civilian flight) or rapid fire (military flight, space simulation) control. Its striking orange accents and backlighting bring gamers’ immersion to a whole new level. With 3 removable components, this allows the joystick to be perfectly tailored for left-handed or right-handed use. Piloting with a joystick in each hand is now possible in all games compatible with two joysticks.

Gain complete control TWCS (Thrustmaster Weapon Control System) throttle: use your left hand to increase your combat speed and manage your spaceship or jet fighter. The TWCS throttle’s lower positioning compared to quadrant-based systems provides unrivalled comfort. To give simmers complete control, the TWCS throttle includes 14 buttons and one 8-way-PoV hat switch that are added to those of the joystick. In total, this provides gamers with 9 axes, 30 buttons and two 8-way PoVs – plus 3 extra axes via the optional TFRP rudder*. The TWCS throttle features 5 axes and a rear RJ12 connector offering 3 additional axes via the external optional TFRP rudder* from Thrustmaster’s flight product ecosystem.

Fly with greater levels of realism and immersion Exclusive precision: H.E.A.R.T HallEffect AccuRate Technology™! 3D (Hall Effect) magnetic sensors located on the stick. Precision levels 256 times greater than current systems (16-bit resolution: 16000 x 16000 values!) Magnets ensure friction-free action for razor-sharp precision that won’t decrease over time.

S.M.A.R.T™ (Sliding Motion Advanced Rail Tracks) technology is a unique system of slide rails for perfectly smooth throttle sliding motion – precise and comfortable, with 3.2 inch/80 mm range of travel for precise maneuvers. The tightening screw allows users to adjust the throttle’s friction level to suit their own personal taste.
