Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS Flight Stick
UPC's:
Most accurate joystick ever!
The optical method of determining position is excellent. Spring is a little strong (only one for all functions - can't be adjusted or removed) but getting used to it and now consider it good exercise. :) Base is very weighted but I used the attachment holes in the bottom to add a piece of wood so I can clamp it to my desk for rock solid support since I get crazy when driving race sims with it. I'd probably rate it 4.5 stars since as others have m... Show More

More for a PC than a Mac
The joystick flies XPlane11 very smoothly (it was recommended by PilotWorkshops) and it appears well made. It is heavy enough to stay-put on a desktop while using it. NOTE: The downloadable software for the T.16000M FCS (on the Thrustmaster website) does NOT include software for an iMac. The result is that the lower 12 assignable control buttons on the base of the stand (six per side) are not assignable for use with an iMac. My iMac desktop runs ... Show More

Great Flight Stick, Not So Great Drivers
Purchased a pair for playing a space flight sim to run a dual-stick or "HOSAS" setup. After getting them set up, they offer a really great experience. The sensitivity is great, and the myriad of buttons offer great customization options. The base is just firm enough not to tip, but it could honestly be a bit heavier. You do have to download their "T.A.R.G.E.T." software in order to customize the buttons and have both sticks recognized as separa... Show More

Thrustmaster Delivers!
I seldom actually write reviews like this so that should tell you something up front. I love everything about this Flight Stick. It's solidly built. The firm feedback allows me to make steady control inputs similar to my real airplane. The 16 custom buttons plus slider and hat control give me everything I could want and more at a VERY reasonable price. I use this exclusively with X-Plane and love it. I can keep my hands on the flight stick almost... Show More

The price is right...
These work great. The software is a bit wonky to get both the left and the right controllers to work at the same time. But I like the fact that they sell them in a left and right kit. Once everything is set up and good to go they work excellently. They are a bit light so if you plan to do any exciting gameplay you may need to bolt them down. The nice thing about these is that there sre threaded M6 attachment points on the bottom of both controllers that can be used to screw them down to a stationary platform. Easily the best option for dual joystick controls for the price.

As advertised here and everywhere else
I am so glad I found these here for the price, I now have two for the HOSAS thing in SC, beats a HOTAS a bit for me. Best price I've seen so far at this site than anywhere else. I had a slight issue (completely MY fault) and these guys were quick to help and solve it. My ONLY advice is if you are gonna order multiples of the same thing, do it at that moment, when I added a second T16000m FCS to the 1st order, it was backordered. Anyways, I will be getting my warthog(s) from these guys.

I would give this a 3.5 if that was an option.
The precision of control is excellent. The ability to set up for left hand is awesome (I use joystick in left hand and Logitech G602 mouse in right hand). My problem with this joystick is that it only has 4 buttons on the stick and some of the buttons on the base were obviously made for someone with smaller fingers than mine.

It's a joy to meet you
Pricing was higher than desired but not enough so to give it only four. Ambidextrous design was what I was looking for. I use a dual joystick config. and this baby is without peer in ease of conversion. This joystick has proven to be accurate and durable. I weigh it down and don't worry about performance save for myself.

Great Mid-Level Flight Stick
I got this to upgrade from a T.Flight Hotas X, and it is great. It is much more accurate and has more buttons. I am using this with the TWRP T.Flight Rudder Pedals and TWCS Throttle. The grip took a bit to get used to because of where the little bump is, but once I did it is better in every way to my old flight stick.

T.16000 Duo Flight Sticks
This setup is all you need. Duo stocks are so intuitive for a space sim, theres very little ramp up time. Some folks spend over a grand on metal, super realistic sticks for this setup. Unless youre an enthusiast with a lot of extra cash - its not needed. These sticks are GREAT for the $.

Great product, would buy again!
Absolutely fantastic flight stick. Products were received timely and undamaged. I use two of them for playing Elite: Dangerous and I absolutely love it! Tried the thrustmaster flight hotas x as well, and the quality of these flight sticks is just far superior. Would highly recommend.

Worth The Price
Works as expected. Its base is nicely weighted. What it lacks is a placard so the user can fill in the purpose of the assigned activity for each button. There are fourteen buttons. All-in-all, good product for the price.

Recommended...would buy again.
Well constructed and very smooth via the Hall Sensors. You can't find a better joystick at this price point. It replaced a 14 yr old CH Fighterstick. My only wish is for a pinky button at the base of the handle.

Replacement/Backup for the original
Ran into a faulty Yaw sensor on the original I bought back in September 2017. This is a replacement/back-up as the original is RMA'd back to the manufacturer.

Great dual sticks
Arrived in perfect condition. Easy to configure. Fun to use. Would definitely recommend hard mounting with the screw holes that it has placeholders for.

This stick is hard to find elsewhere due to its popularity
Good stick, very accurate compared to other sticks in this price range. Most economical option for dual stick setup in space sims.

Nice
A great joystick to use with X-plane 11. Smooth joystick and plenty of other buttons within easy reach.
