Thrustmaster has devoted its 25 years of expertise in flight sim controllers to meet the growing demand from flight simmers in general – and space simmers in particular.
The T.16000M (T16000/T-16000) FCS has been designed for advanced fliers looking for comprehensive, realistic controls as an alternative to using a mouse and keyboard. The T.16000M FCS (Flight Control System) flight stick is compatible with PC via USB in Windows 10, 8, 7 and Vista (32-bit and 64-bit - please see more info on the Thrustmaster support website: Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS HOTAS Support).
T.16000M FCS flight stick
Exclusive precision thanks to Thrustmaster's H.E.A.R.T* HallEffect AccuRate Technology™! 3D (Hall Effect) magnetic sensors located on the stick (*US patent: US08471815). Precision levels 256 times greater than current systems (16-bit resolution: 16000 x 16000 values!). Magnets ensure friction-free action for razor-sharp precision that won’t decrease over time. Helical spring (0.1” / 2.8 mm in diameter) inside the stick providing firm, linear and smooth tension.
Ergonomic design for optimum comfort and precision
Thanks to its design and ergonomics, the T.16000M FSC HOTAS provides players with multiple recognizable features, allowing them to become more effective and accurate when in flight. This enhanced access to flight controls proves even more essential when players are fully immersed in the exceptional flight experience delivered by VR-compatible games.
The T.16000M FCS HOTAS is the most natural and intuitive way to sit in a cockpit with one’s hands on the throttle and stick.
Key Features:
- T.A.R.G.E.T programming software: program up to 256 buttons on the joystick. Thrustmaster Advanced pRogramming Graphical EdiTor software combines with other Thrustmaster devices (so that they are recognized as a single USB device), and load or create specific mapping profiles for each game (this product is not distributed under license from and is in no way endorsed by Microsoft Corporation).
- Fully ambidextrous joystick! 3 removable components allow the joystick to be perfectly tailored for left-handed or right-handed use. Piloting with a joystick in each hand is now possible in all games compatible with two joysticks.
-
16 action buttons with “braille”-style physical button identification! 12 on the base and 4 on the stick + one 8-way Point of View hat switch. Switch allowing users to configure the 12 buttons located on the base in a left- or right-handed position.
-
4 independent axes, including twist rudder (controlled by rotating the stick)
Ergonomic trigger for brake (civilian flight) or rapid fire (military flight, space simulation) control
-
Multidirectional hat switch (for panoramic view)
-
Ergonomic design for optimum comfort
