Overview
Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS Flight Pack: The ultimate equipment

Designed for experienced pilots who need complete and realistic controls, the Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS Flight Pack is the perfect replacement for your mouse or keyboard. It includes the T.16000M FCS (Flight Control System) joystick, the TWCS (Thrustmaster Weapon Control System) throttle and the TFRP (Thrustmaster Flight Rudder Pedals) rudder pedal for an absolutely incomparable level of immersion.

The Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS Flight Pack is the ideal partner for players wishing to engage the enemy, all with surgical precision.


Firm, linear and fluid tension


For unparalleled performance, the T.16000M FCS joystick's pitch and roll controls feature H.E.A.R.T HallEffect AccuRate Technology, which provides 16-bit resolution (16,000 x 16,000 values); an extreme level of accuracy, identical to that of the exclusive HOTAS Warthog joystick, allowing players to engage the enemy with surgical precision.

The T.16000M FCS features 4 independent axes, with rotary rudder (controlled by stick rotation), 16 action buttons with physical 'Braille' button identification, an 8-way Chinese viewpoint hat and an ergonomic trigger. The orange-accented dress and backlighting provide players with an unparalleled level of immersion.


Optimal comfort and extreme precision


Use your left hand and improve your agility in combat with the TWCS (Thrustmaster Weapon Control System) throttle. The lower position of the throttle compared to quadrant systems offers unparalleled comfort. And in order to offer the full range of controls to enthusiasts, it features 14 buttons and an 8-way Chinese viewpoint cap, in addition to those of the joystick.

In total, you have 5 axes, 30 buttons, two 8-way Chinese hats and S.M.A.R.T (Sliding Motion Advanced Rail Tracks)technology. The latter offers an exclusive sliding rail system to ensure smooth, ultra-precise movement over the 80mm of throttle travel for precise manoeuvring.


The right balance between fluidity and strength


The TFRP Rudder Pedals feature two pedals supported by a specific and innovative technology: S.M.A.R.T. (Sliding Motion Advanced Rail Track). This is a system of 4 industrial grade anodised aluminium rails. Their design allows for a perfectly smooth sliding movement. These tracks are combined with a self-centring steering axis.

These two characteristics combined provide a good balance between fluidity of action and resistance to return to the centre.


Innovative and powerful software


The fatal weapon of the Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS Hotas joystick is called T.A.R.G.E.T(Thrustmaster Advanced pRogramming Graphical EdiTor). This is a software suite that allows the creation of programs of varying degrees of complexity using only the mouse, following a "drag and drop" principle. Several levels of programming are offered: "Basic" for beginners, "Advanced" to exploit advanced functions and finally "Script" to exploit the full power of the software.

T.A.R.G.E.T. allows for total interaction between different Thrustmaster USB controllers, simplified configurations in the simulators, and the use of a single profile for all controllers rather than as many profiles as there are controllers. Finally, and this is a definite advantage, T.A.R.G.E.T. includes predefined profiles for famous titles, both recent and older, and moreover allows the creation of new profiles!

    Corresponds to my expectations. Nothing to complain about

    The product seems to be of good quality, for the moment no problem, it remains to be seen in time but I have no fear on this side.

    Good quality and good price.

    I bought this HOTAS kit to play around with on a couple of flight sets and I am more than happy with it.
    The positive points:
    +Pleasant handling
    +Complete customisation of the controls
    +The Thruster is really nice.
    +The precision of the controls is remarkable.
    Negative points:
    -The finish is not exceptional, but considering the price, more than reasonable.
    -For me the Stick trigger is a bit too "stiff".
    -The rudder slides quite a bit.

    Very good quality nothing to complain about

    Good quality product. Incomparable with my old joysticks (cyborg fly 5 which fell apart with each use). I find it very accurate, good grip, good ergonomics. I would have liked the joystick to be at thumb level, but otherwise it's fine. I can't judge the reliability as I bought it too recently.

    Excellent HOTAS

    I bought this HOTAS to play elite dangerous and it is really excellent. Very good value for money, I find it very well made, the buttons are very accessible whether on the joystick or throttle. I also find the materials of good quality and the solidity seems to be there. At this price, it makes this set the best value for money in my opinion. The cables are also quite long (about 2m).

    interesting material

    I've been using it for a while now, but it's a bit of a pity that it's not packed in a box. The price is correct for the material. Works with FSX X- PLANE 11- AEROFLIHGT 2. Difficulty to set up some functions especially the rudder under FSX. No installation cd, you have to download the drivers. The rudder plug is an RJ plug which is put on the throttle. The material is a little light and deserves a similar fixing for the rudder. A wheelchair is not so good, better a fixed chair. It remains to refine the adjustments for pleasant flights now
