Sol-R 5 Base for Detachable Grips

The Thrustmaster Sol-R 5 Base is a flight simulator joystick base designed for experienced pilots who want expanded control without a keyboard or mouse. It accepts all detachable grips in the Thrustmaster ecosystem on PC running Windows 10 or 11. The base includes stability supports and attachment points for secure mounting on a desk or in a dedicated cockpit setup. Customisable RGB LEDs allow personal style configuration.

16-Bit Hall Effect Precision

The decisive specification is the H.E.A.R.T. sensor technology on the X and Y axes, delivering 16-bit resolution for precise and durable input. This magnetic sensing eliminates physical contact wear on the primary flight axes, ensuring consistent centring and smooth response over extended use. It is the core feature that separates this base from entry-level potentiometer alternatives.

23 Assignable Actions for Complex Sims

The base provides 23 programmable actions via toggle switches, pads, a selector switch and a mini-throttle, managed through T.A.R.G.E.T. software. This covers essential functions for space, military and civil flight simulations, letting you manage systems without reaching for the keyboard. Builders needing more axes or a dedicated throttle quadrant will find the base stops at pitch and roll only.

Questions about this item

What does 16-bit Hall effect precision mean for stick movement?

The X and Y axes use H.E.A.R.T. sensors that deliver 16-bit resolution, giving very fine and repeatable input for precise aircraft control.

How does the base connect to a PC and what does that limit?

It connects via USB on Windows 10 or 11, so all 23 assignable actions and RGB lighting are configured through the T.A.R.G.E.T. software on that platform.

What mounting options come with the base for desk or cockpit use?

Included stability supports and attachment points let you secure the base firmly on a desk or in a cockpit rig.
