Advanced flight sim control
The Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS HOTAS combines a flight stick and separate throttle for hands-on control of every cockpit function. It targets advanced virtual pilots who want realistic, comprehensive input instead of a mouse and keyboard. The set works with Windows 10, 8, 7 and Vista on both 32-bit and 64-bit systems. Buyers who need a single compact stick or who prefer keyboard-and-mouse flight will not find this dual-unit HOTAS suitable.
Hall Effect magnetic precision
The stick uses Hall Effect AccuRate Technology with magnetic sensors on pitch and roll axes, covered by US patent 8471815, to deliver contactless, drift-free movement. Four independent axes include a twist rudder operated by rotating the stick, removing the need for separate pedals. Sixteen action buttons feature braille-style physical identification so you can locate controls by touch without looking away from the screen.
USB powered, low heat
Power comes entirely from the USB connection, so the unit draws minimal current and generates negligible heat during long sessions. No external power brick or active cooling is required, keeping the desk silent and the setup simple. The orange backlighting adds visual immersion without increasing power draw or temperature.

Questions about this item
What does the 16000M precision mean when I'm flying in a sim?
The Hall Effect magnetic sensors on the stick give you 16-bit resolution on pitch and roll so small corrections stay smooth without a dead zone.
How does the USB connection limit what I can plug in?
The stick and throttle each use a standard USB 2.0 port on Windows 10, 8, 7 or Vista (32-bit and 64-bit) with no extra drivers required.
What desk space and mounting do the stick and throttle need?
Both units sit on the desktop with integrated bases; the throttle includes a 2-position slider and a push mini-stick for extra axis control.
