The joystick was very easy to set up and configure with Flight Simulator, which recognised it and assigned buttons and axes automatically. The feel of the joystick is great, with just the right amount of resistance for fine control. It fits comfortably in my hand and appears to be well made. The buttons on the base are of better quality than my previous Logitech Wingman joystick, and there's more of them. There are 5 buttons Flight Simulator left unassigned which gives plenty of options for your choice of assignments. It has improved my precision when flying compared to the previous joystick, no question.

This is a nice flight stick with a lovely feel to the movement. The interchangable buttons are handy, as its always nice to have a few spares in case of issues. However the plastics used are "tacky & low quality" for the base cover. Feels like a £10 childs toy level of quality. The stick itself has better quality but the trigger button is also cheap feeling and a bit loose, so expect it to break if you use it vigrously. The adverstised "reverse thruster" is useless, as its too fiddly to use due to no detenting for the zero throttle point. The base plate buttons are also cheap and tacky with a loose finish. The tacticle response is terrible, as the clickplate underneath is not lined up properly resulting in failed presses due to buttons clashing and sticking in the housing. What is good is that its cheaper than the normal "un branded" version for some unknown reason and its a nice slate blue colour. Honestly expected better quality as this price point, as its a replacement for a 10 year old Logitech Extreme 3d Pro. Was going to buy another 3d Pro and changed my mind for this one as the logitech 3d Pro was out of stock at the time. This is more precise and smoother to use but the logitech does still feel more robust than this TCA sidestick. So TLDR = Should be priced cheaper / decent enough quality overall / 4 out 5 - good but not great Personal note; If you are on a budget, just get a logitech 3d pro instead of this. You can get it for almost 1/2 the price and it even if it wont last as long, or be as precise, it's still a good stick for its price range. If you are not on a budget, skip this completely and go for a real stick from a professional sim vendor. Can't really recommend this tbh.

My son has a really huge passion for becoming a commercial airline pilot when he's older, and finding a simulation toy for his games was quite difficult, until I came across the Thrustmaster Sidestick for Airbus. The product features many active controls and it is very smooth. The axis has some sort of hidden greasing inside, making it ultra smooth. There is a tiny throttle behind the axis, and also a thrust reverser, making it ultra-convenient if you haven't bought the throttle from Thrustmaster yet. The sidestick comes with a manual and has a USB input, compatible with laptops, PC's, and so on. The product is really fun and precisely simulates the fun of flying a plane. Many games are compatible with this controller, adding to the fun. There is nothing wrong with this product at all, whatsoever. I hope this review has helped all the people seeking out a joystick, and I would highly recommend it to other customers, I am giving it 5 Stars!!

Better than previous products, sturdy, long-lasting and well-used, so far without problems.

Whilst it is only listed as being PC compatible my son really wanted one to use for AeroflyFS 4 with our Apple Mac Mini M1. From researching online I was finding conflicting or what seemed to be outdated information about its compatibility with Apple and I was hesitant about making the purchase but I am so glad I did. As it costs considerably less than some options I wasn't sure what to expect but on unboxing the stick I was pleasantly surprised by the general quality, finish and feel of it. Most importantly for us the Thrustmaster TCA Sidestick actually works on our Mac M1 without an issue. Once it was plugged it into a USB hub that is connected to a Mac Mini M1 running macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 we rebooted the Mac and it has been running fine and been plugged in and out on numerous occasions without any issues. My son informs me that it works seamlessly with AeroflyFS4 and that it works great with no extra adjustments needed. He also said that it works fine on Simple Planes & War Thunder but that it required manual mapping of controls within the games settings. Likewise with some changes to the mapping he says it works well in Farming Simulator 22 when used to control some of the machinery. It doesn't appear to be supported by GeForce Now, there might be a work around to trick GeForce Now into thinking it is a different type of controller and then remapping but we haven't looked into it and probably won't as my son is just delighted that it works without issue on Mac M1.

Seriously needed an upgrade so i plumped for this. Not regretted it very smooth and stable, lots of buttons, throttle at bottom (ok not the best place bit awkward) but still happy with it. Works fine with MSFS 2024 but you'll have to map the axis and buttons manually most likely! Some are pre programmed but i removed default and bound my own.

Joystick jest dość ciężki i ma miękkie gumki na spodzie, dzięki temu doskonale trzyma się stołu. Nie ma efektu odrywania się joysticka przy gwałtownych przechyleniach. Ciekawa jest funkcja zmiany lewo/prawo ręcznego użytkownika, tak samo wymienne moduły które pozwalają dostosować urządzenie do swoich potrzeb. Warto ściągnąć aplikację Target ze strony producenta, która pozwala przypisać przyciskom dowolne funkcje dla konkretnego programu. Jedyny minus to kabel którego nie można odczepić, więc ewentualne uszkodzenie kable będzie równało się serwisowi. Odczepiany kabel pozwalałby na prostą wymianę w razie awarii. Poza tym porządny sprzęt.

The joystick is easy to use and handles brilliantly. The extra buttons really help make things easier instead of switching from joystick to keyboard.
