Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog Flight Stick and Throttle

All Systems Nominal!
First off, this arrived in two business days for free which is fantastic. Secondly, it was double boxed and both boxes were in pristine condition when they arrived. Inside both boxes was the actual product box and it was also in pristine condition. I've since used the HOTAS in DCS A-10C and all the buttons work correctly without calibration or keybinding. If you're flying the A-10C, this is a no brainer to pick up if you can afford it. The price is the only con to this HOTAS. Save up or wait for a sale. I bought mine at full price after saving up. Expensive but worth it.

Top-notch flight gear!
I decided to replace a 14 year old HOTAS system that really worked just fine but I wanted to upgrade my flight rig. I split my time between flight sims and racing sims depending on my current whims. Research led me to spring for the Warthog spending more $ than I ever imagined I would BUT it was worth every penny! The flexibility it offers in mapping commands, the build quality, and the realistic design are all important factors. But in the end t... Show More

Best of the Best
I have had many HOTAS's in the past 10 - 15 years. The most recent 5 year period I have gone through 4. Starting with the Rhino X-55 from Siatek which I had 2 fail on me and break from use due bad wiring in throttle and to cheap plastic used on stick. I also had the Thrustmaster t-16000 HOTAS w/rudder package which still works great after over a year of constant use. Not I got this at a great price through B&H and must say it is a beast. Metal components that will not fail. Control that is second to none and feel which is unbelievable. Definitely the best of the best.

Well Worth It
As a flight enthusiast (BMS Falcon), I've wanted a Thrustmaster Warthog for a long time. I've had "mid-range" hotas before and always managed to get along fine. But finally I decided to get the TM and, from the first minute, it made a huge difference. Everything is smoother and more precise - especially necessary when you are doing air-to-air refueling or other delicate maneuvers. And, while I have read a lot of people complaining about the Target software, it is not difficult to use and it works very well. All-in-all, a very worthwhile upgrade to my hobby!

Best HOTAS on the market
I'm a private pilot and a flight sim enthusiast since the very first days of Microsoft flight simulator. I've owned almost every flight peripheral made, and built a fully functional 737 cockpit. Without exaggeration the Thrustmaster Warthog joystick and throttle is the best piece of kit I've purchased. It's been out for years now but nothing else comes close to its feel and precision. This isn't cheap but it represents the difference between a to... Show More

The best joystick ever created.
This joystick is extremely well made and very durable. If you're looking for a high quality joystick that's not just another plastic toy, look no further than the Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog.

Great Throttle/Joystick
This is a VERY well made, solid and heavy joystick and throttle. You would expect that for the price, and you will not be disappointed. It is designed and configured primarily for combat simulations so if you are using this in a civilian application, like FSX or P3D there are a few drawbacks IMO. As you may have already read, there is no provision for rudder input so taxiing is challenging. You can assign this function to a slider on the throttle... Show More

Requires lots of configuration changes The right throttle defaults to nose wheel steering For unknown logic it has always been joke steering on the ground the joy stick response is excellent also the iverslll quality

Great but expnsive
If you are serious about your SIM this is the HOTAS to get, all the others suck in comparison.

Everything I had hoped for
Great product. Expensive but worth it. Compared to its predecessor, the HOTAspS Cougar, it's a superior product. And my Cougar still works fine although the Warthog is superior in smoothness and sensor response performance. Package was great. Product arrived on time and in perfect working order. Price was very competitive. Very happy so far. Five Stars.

Best HOTAS ever
It's a replica of the real thing. All button and toggles are solid. Throttle assembly is led backlit green. Both assemblies are metal constructed, complete with holes for permanent mounting. Pricey, but you get what you pay for with this one.

Joystick on a Different Level
Bought this for DCS World. Amazingly solid, precise piece of kit. I was a little overwhelmed at first as I had to learn all over again how to fly the aircraft and master all the controls. However, I very quickly became comfortable and look forward to many hours of immersive game play. Little pricey, but you get what you pay for.

Vast improvement over X52 Pro
I figure, you go to a cheap car wash, your car is still dirty. You spend a little more and your car looks great and is clean. There's a line there that you need to cross if you want to be happy and satisfied with a quality product or service. That's how I feel about this HOTAS.

Best joystick on the market
I use this HOTAS setup for FSX, Elite Dangerous, Star Citizen, and Arma3. I have had it for over a year and it still looks like new. I also don't worry about my 6 year old using it as I know it won't break. Very solid.

Solid Performer
Warthog is a solid built serious HOTAS solution. This is not a toy and is as real as it gets without seating in a cockpit. Easy to program and bind to the programs I use it for. Highly recommend this to the serious HOTAS user who discriminates for the best.

Broken Coolie Switch
Arrived with a broken Coolie switch. B&H has so far been great. Nearly instantly sending an RMA and packing slip. Only way B&H could have improved would have been to send another with a packing slip for the defective item like Samsung does. I heard the soldering in these are not too good so I was not suprised. Feels like a great stick, I really look forward to a working model. :)

Better than anticipated
I've been using an old Thrustmaster set-up for many years with a lot of heavy use. Always said I'd replace them with the new model. Wasn't prepared for the brilliant execution of the Warthog set-up. This has to be the finest set of controllers available, bar none.... I am very impressed is an understatement for sure!

Hotas warthog flight stick
This product shipped new and had al items included. The yellow stickers were on the Joystick as seen on youtube unboxing videos. This was a replacemnt for a flight stick I had purchased From ...Zon which no stickers were on it and glue was on the base. I also had a broken hat switch. Would of been 5 stars if the shipping was more clear. Voice chat was correct so you get 4 stars

Just what the Flight Simmer Needed
I have been actively using my computer desk as a flight sim platform for more than 10 years and have wore out more than my share of joysticks. A few years ago Thrustmaster came out with the HOTAS Warthog Flight Stick and Throttle combination and I immediately had to own one. Unfortunately the price was well over$and that meant that it was out of reach for a while. My last joystick gave up on me just before my 50th birthday so I decided it was tim... Show More
