Thrustmaster TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition Modular Flight Stick

Inspired by the Real Airbus Sidestick The TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition from Thrustmaster, is inspired by the iconic Airbus sidestick, and is an ergonomic 1:1 scale replica with 17 action buttons with “braille”-style identification! Includes 4 swappable joystick head button modules, and 12 remappable buttons for a multitude of possibilities in flight, and on the ground. The throttle comes with a built-in thrust reverser mechanism, and rudder control by rotating the sidestick’s handle (lockable/unlockable). With contactless magnetic sensor technology, with no potentiometers, for an unlimited lifespan and optimal precision. The product is compatible with PC (Windows 10, 8).

A more realistic commercial flight experience You can easily adjust the sidestick's configuration before each take-off, to meet your requirements: captain, co-pilot, or with the sidestick in the central position for solo flight. The rudder can be used by rotating the sidestick's handle, to make flying easier for multitasking pilots. This rudder function built into the sidestick's handle also includes a locking system. The throttle built into the base of the joystick includes a thrust reverser function, a unique feature on airliners. This is a major advantage in terms of helping you master related manoeuvres, and ensures that your landings are always perfectly controlled.

Fly with greater levels of realism and immersion The TCA Airbus Edition features the celebrated proprietary H.E.A.R.T (HallEffect AccuRate Technology) system from Thrustmaster, providing gamers with enhanced realism thanks to the built-in magnetic sensors allowing for up to 14-bit resolution. New locking mechanism lets you disable the joystick handle’s rotation, if used in conjunction with a rudder controller (sold separately).

a powerful software suite is the deadliest weapon T.A.R.G.E.T is a software suite allowing users to test, configure and programme Thrustmaster controllers. T.A.R.G.E.T is more than an interface: you can load or create specific mapping presets for each aircraft, to extend or save all of your favorite settings.
