Thrustmaster T16000M FCS - Ambidextrous Flight Control System with H.E.A.R.T HallEffect AccuRate Technology for PC

The Thrustmaster T16000M does it's job perfectly as an entry level joystick to enter into space or flight sims. It was easy to set up and responsive, mapping was simple and works fine with games like Star Citizen and Microsoft flight simulator. The ambidextrous grip is easy to swap over as long as you have a screwdriver handy. Running HOSAM for Star citizen has been an absolute game changer in not only how well I am able to fly but also the immersion into the game. It has a good amount of buttons to map your needed items very rarely do I have to move back to the keyboard when in flight. It does not have Vibration if that is something you are interested in.

This is a great quality joystick, giving consistent performance while on a budget. You can grip the surface well, it feels responsive and is quite compatible with multiple systems due to its plug-and-play capabilities. It is fun to use it and quite entertaining. This is a great choice if you would like a cheap but durable joystick for flight simulators and such.

I've been using a cyborg gold joystick for over 10 years, this review is based on my comparison to that. Pros: Easy to change to left handed and back if needed. Only 2 screws to do so. The joystick movement has a fair amount of resistance but it does scream quality. No dead zone, it centres perfect every time. Smooth movement, you feel in control with even the smallest of movements. Fairly heavy, so stays well planted on the desk. Worst case, there are two screw points underneath if you need them. Easy setup. Cons: The buttons feel soft, not a very positive click The sick is a little oversized IMO. I'm a medium to large glove size and i feel my hands are on the small side for this stick. It's not unusable, just doesn't feel quite right. When you move the stick the base lights up. After 3 seconds of being 100% centred, the light goes out, but comes back on when moved again. I'm finding this distracting. Great for checking if the stick is working correctly but with no option to turn this light off, i had to drop a star from my rating. There are videos online that show you how and which wire to cut to stop this but that will invalidate your warranty. I will cut mine as soon as the warranty has ended. Only thing i haven't mentioned so far is the slide throttle. Shame it's not a rotational throttle like on my cyborg gold, but for a slide throttle, it does its job and feels fine. My reason for getting this one is that it is the only quality left handed joystick on the market at the moment IMO

The Thrustmaster T16000M FCS is a top-notch flight stick perfect for both beginners and experienced flight sim enthusiasts. Its HallEffect AccuRate Technology ensures precise and smooth control, while the ambidextrous design makes it versatile for both left- and right-handed users. The ergonomic design allows for extended gameplay without discomfort. Overall, it offers excellent precision and comfort at a reasonable price, making it a solid choice for any flight simulation setup.

This replaced my Thrustmaster Flightstick-X, which had passed the useful stage. I use it on Elite Dangerous and have found it to be perfect for ship control. You should ensure that you set the deadspot to a bit away from zero and it is magic. Great joystick at a pretty fair price I would say. Well done Thrustmaster!

I have used Thrustmaster products for many years and I have never been disappointed with any of them and this no exception. Well built, solid quality and easy to use. Used mainly with FS2020 and DCS World, no more flying helicopters like I’m drunk ! The twist rudder is an absolute godsend and very intuitive to use, whether landing a fixed wing in a cross wind or strafing a column of enemy vehicles it works beautifully. Highly recommended Happy flying y’all.

It is a really good joystick for the price. I used it for X-Plane 11 and FSX and it works perfectly. At rest, no displacement was shown so it was perfectly calibrated. There are a decent amount of buttons as well on the left and right side. The throttle is really well made but however sometimes, it is really easy to move the throttle while holding the stick, but that is a user issue. The only issue is that to switch between left hand right hand options requires me to unglue the RH flap and glue the LH one.

Love this, as a left handed gamer, joysticjs have always been annoying since its hard to find decent left handed ones, so the ability to take the thumbrest off and put left thumbrest on is genius, the ability to rotate the wrist rest to be left handed, also genius. Joystick is heavoer than others ive had in the past, which is good since its lesss likely to slide about, button layout is done so a left or right person can use them all easily. Feels nice to grip. Not really anything bad to say about it

Ich habe mir diesen Stick als Ersatz gekauft. Da der Vorgänger, durch einen dummen Fehler durch mich, ein leichtes zittern hatte bei der RZ Achse. Ansonsten kann ich nichts negatives sagen. Ich nutze ihn im Weltraumsim "Elite Dangerous" auf dem PC. Pro: - lässt sich super einrichten - gibt im Game eine gute Grundeinstellung, die ich für meine Bedürfnisse umgestellt habe. - ist leichtgängig und Präzise - für das SRV ist es genauso gut nutzbar wie für alle Raumschiffe. Contra - für "On Food" ist es mit dem Schubregler zusammen nich nutzbar. Da empfehle ich eher einen Playstation Controller oder XBOX Controller. Je nach eigenem Empfinden, aber beides Kabelgebunden, bei zumindest so, da ich vergessen würde Ihn aufzuladen. Wie man sieht gibt es von mir nur ein Contrapunkt, aber jeder ist da anders. Und ja es gibt von mir eine kristallklare Kaufempfehlung. Ich würde aber das Set mit dem Schubregler mehr empfehlen, da es im Set zusammen günstiger ist.

Good item

Apesar da caixa ter chegado um tanto danificada, creio que problema dos Correios, o equipamento é perfeito. Embora em plástico, percebe-se que é de gama superior, por exemplo, à linha T-Flight Hotas. O joystick é bastante preciso e ergonômico em seu uso. Já senti um grande ganho em relação ao modelo que usei anteriormente.
