Thrustmaster T.Flight Hotas One - High-Precision Flight Stick with Throttle for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC

To go with my MSFS 24 on Xbox series x.Wow man.It's all a bit to cool guys.Seriously cool.

I've been flight simming (MSFS) for 3 years now. I started off using this stick with the X-Box series X, but now use it on PC (it can work with either by toggling a switch on the stick base). I use it in split configuration so throttle to left of me and stick to right. I find it works really well like this, although the (hard attached & not USB) cable that runs between the throttle and stick bases could perhaps do with being ever so slightly longer to give more flexibilty with position.My original T.Flight Hotas One from 3 years ago had one glaring flaw, the throttle was way too loose with minimal resistance. (I saw other people complain about this too), however on this latest stock/batch/version this seems to have been rectified and it now comes with a much more smooth yet resistive feel - I was very pleasantly surprised by this. My only minor complaint is that the centre detent notch although still there is less obvious now. Another issue I previously had 3 years ago with this stick was a noisy pot (from new) on one of the axis, which meant me having to return the unit for replacement. I'm happy to say this latest one has no observable issues at all straight out of the box.I really like the simplicity of this entry level stick, but ideally TM could really do with adding a 2nd HAT switch to make it more optimal for modern flight simming. I use the single HAT switch it does have for panning cockpit views, when a 2nd HAT would be great for things like setting helicopter rotor trim with. I also like being able to change the resistance level of this stick down as I get sore wrists if I use sticks that are more rigid.It is a well made product & great value, but still packed with what for many users will be enough functionality/features but yet also manages to "keep things simple". I've actually tried more complex sticks/throttle combos, but they are either too stiff for my wrist to handle (it quickly gets to sore for me to use for long periods) or too complex to get my head around. I find there is joy to be had in simplicity and that shouldn't be overlooked. Hence the reason I bought this stick again after using the previous one for 3 years solid yet only one noisy axis having become apparent with it after all that time.

For mfs 2024 u will need the controler present to browse the menu as the buttons don't allways work but for the actual it is great for it's price

I recently purchased a new computer and decided to get back into flight sims, as I hadn't played one in many years. I installed MSFS 2020 and decided I needed a new controller as the one I had was about 12 years old. The one I initially purchased on Amazon was literally unusable, despite many attempts to configure it in MSFS so I eventually had to return it. Instead I decided to order the Thrustmaster and it arrived the following day. As soon as I plugged it in, MSFS recognised and had already configured it. I changed one or two assignments and undertook a flight from one regional airport to another successfully nailing the landing at my first attempt. For the money, this is an excellent piece of kit.
