An intuitive and realistic flight experience
Under official Airbus license, the Thrustmaster TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition joystick is an ergonomic replica of the Airbus A320/A320 Neo control stick in 1:1 scale. It features a structure composed of 12 re-assignable action buttons for a multitude of possibilities and an acceleration lever with integrated thrust reverser (a unique function on airliners). The design of the joystick head is both versatile and modular thanks to its interchangeable components. Before each take-off, adjust your control column configuration to the most optimal position: captain, co-pilot or centre control column for solo flights.
In addition, the rudder can be activated by rotating the control column to simplify the life of multi-task pilots. It also has a locking function for a more realistic commercial flight session. The TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition features the renowned proprietary H.E.A.R.T (Halleffect AccuRate Technology), giving players the closest thing to realism with magnetic sensors reading up to 14-bit resolution.
Inspired by the real Airbus stick
The TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition promises a unique grip as an ergonomic replica inspired by the iconic 1:1 scale Airbus mini stick.
The integrated throttle at the base of the joystick includes a thrust reverser function, a unique feature of commercial aircraft. This is a great asset for mastering manoeuvres and ensuring fully controlled landings.
H.E.A.R.T. Technology
H. E.A.R.T. (Halleffect Accurate Technology), without contact or potentiometer, offers the possibility to enjoy unlimited life and optimal precision during flight sessions.
The rudder can be activated by rotating the control column to simplify the life of multi-tasking pilots. This integrated control column rudder also has a lock function, for a more realistic commercial flight session.
Versatile and modular design
