Best Value for the Money!
I bought this primarily to use to play Elite Dangerous on the PC. Pros: -Very comfortable, even with my large hands. -Most of the buttons have good tactile response. -Has a decent amount of buttons, but a few more would have been nice. -Adjustable resistance on the stick is very nice to have. -PRICE: There is really not another stick in this price range that has the same feature set and quality. Cons: -Build quality is OK, not great, it definitel... Show More

Not very versatile
I brought this joystick primarily for PC gaming, with PS3 compatibility as a bonus. The feel of the stick was very comfortable and easy to use. The midpoint of the throttle has resistance to indicate where 0% thrust would be (to go further backward would be reverse thrust). All in all, the buttons were very responsive. However what results in the negative rating is that the joystick is not very customizable for PC gaming. The only customization t... Show More

Elite: Dangerous Never Felt So Good
Didn't want to spend $+ for a HOTAS, so I picked this guy up. Thankfully, B&H had them in stock for less than $.You know the specs, so, here's some pros and cons:Pros:* Weighted Base* Enough easily accessible buttons to handles tons of functions* Throttle has a clear deadzoneCons:* Maybe it's just me, but there appears to be a deadzone with the stick - mushy is the wrong word, but it feels like there is a millimeter or two in either direction on ...

Works on iMac
Purchased for use on iMac to play Warbirds and X-Plane. All buttons function, both twist and rocker available as separate channels. Feels sturdy. I like that the throttle has a center detente instead of at the end of the throw like on the Thurstmaster Top Gun, but would prefer no detente at all. Same with the joystick... tension is adjustable, but the detente in the middle is rather firm. HOTAS setup is decent. More buttons than my old Top Gun jo... Show More

Excellent Flight Stick
The T. Flight HOTAS X is a quality flight stick at an affordable price. It come with no software, it's completely plug and play through the USB plug. So no worries about installation or annoying updates. The 18 cord connects the throttle to the joystick which is plenty of room to maneuver the unit between your thighs and position the throttle on a small table to your left just like a real cockpit if you want to. The base is solid and overall the ... Show More

Great bargain HOTAS
5 stars considering price (and it was on sale at the time). The conjoined setup is pointless, you will typically use these split apart (the cord joining the two is just adequate in length). Make sure the Home button is green to use the odd throttle rudder as a separate control (I find it handy for zooming in a flight sim). The stick rudder (Z twist) works fine. Could use another POV hat (mini-joystick)--the throttle would be a perfect spot--and a... Show More

Great stick for the money
The Thrustmaster T. Flight HOTAS perfroms way above its paygrade. Yes it's plastic, no it doesn't weigh a ton, but it doesn't move around during use. The feel of the stick and throttle are great, with the stick's resistance being adjustable via a knob on its underside. Button placement is great, and the built in button mapping means you get the controls you want, where you want them, even on games that dont allow custom mapping. I love that the t... Show More

A Lot for the Money
5 Stars is given for overall performance for price. This a $ joystick with much better ergonomics than other in the price range. Everything works as advertised. I have been using it with Elite Dangerous on a Windows 8.1 custom machine. Drivers downloaded and installed automatically and all buttons were programmable within Elite Dangerous.0% Throttle is a little hard to get at first without looking at the on screen HUD.It's made of plastic, feels ...

Low Price, Great Performance
The low end of the HOTAS market this is, none the less, a credible game controller. You can lock out the twist rudder control on the joystick and use the paddle on the throttle (3 axis), or use the twist and assign the paddle to another function (4 axis). I tweaked mine with some power curve software and I'm very happy with the accuracy I can attain. I like that it can bolted together or separated into two pieces. The only HOTAS that allows you that option. I use it on my PC, it works with a Play Station too.

Improve flight control
My son plays H.A.W.X 2 using an old Attack3 stick. I bought the HOSTA X to replace the old one. The boy plays passed 3 levels in 2 hours. He's so happy and told me that the new stick helps him to be an 'Ace'. The device is well built. Expected to last for a long time. It's little odd to me that why the engineers choose to use the Allen key screws at the bottom to attach the throttle to the main stick. While phillip screws were used to attached the bottom covers, which will not be removed often.

Great budget HOTAS for Elite:Dangerous
B&H was the only vendor I could find still carrying this HOTAS setup, and I am really grateful to have gotten one before they run out like every other website. This setup is great as an entry level HOTAS for flight sims. After this model, it's hard to find anything under $120 and it rapidly goes up to $400 for the top of the line stuff. The base may be a bit more clunky than the expensive stuff, but I think I can still build this into a DIY flight chair without much trouble.

Great starter HOTAS
I am very happy with this hotas from thrustmaster. Even tho it is only an entry level hotas it is surprisingly well built. It has everything you will need for your first hotas setup. The only thing that may need a little improvement is the throttle isn't as precise as some of the other much more expensive hotas setups. Overall you definitely get more than what you pay for in this hotas. The stick is very smooth and everything seems to be durable.

Great controls for space simulations.
I bought the T. Flight HOTAS X especially to play Elite: Dangerous. It is a really great control system for the game, allowing full control of all essential controls with room to spare. The stick moves very smoothly. The only downside is that it is a little light, and if you turn up the stick resistance that could cause the stick to lift off of the desk.

A Great, Low Cost Flightstick
The Hotas X Flightstick is a great and low-cost stick that's easy to use, has complete hands-off operation of flight sims. The throttle isn't the most responsive, and the hat has run into some compatibility issues, but overall the stick and the operation is smooth and responsive. For the price , you get a lot of functionality.

Excellent joystick & Great support
I bought one of these new. After 6 months the twist axis on the stick quit working. Thrustmaster quickly determined it was a hardware problem and I had a another new one on my doorstep in 2 days. This stick is very responsive and works great with all my flight sim games. I highly recommend this product. Buy one, and enjoy!

Good product
Purchased this joystick to play IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad, on Windows 10. It installed easily and was recognized even by the much older (circa 2001) version of the IL-2 game. I am having trouble getting used to the sensitivity, (pitch and roll) tend to over-react) but that may be because I am new to the device.

Best Value Joystick/Throttle Combo avail
I've been using this device for Elite Dangerous and War Thunder and have been very pleased. The build quality is great and it feels very solid to the touch.Worked instantly with most games, and set-up was effortless. Compared to other options, this is really the only Joystick/Throttle combo available for a decent price.

Great Joystick
I use this joystick to play Hawx on PS3. It was very easy to set up with the PS3. When I use it to play the game it feels very realistic. The joystick itself is very responsive to every move. I would definitely recommend it to others who are looking for a good joystick.

Good for the price
Before buying, I read reviews which said this HOTAS was cheap-feeling, which is true, but still a remarkably good feel at 60$. There is a nob at the botton of the stick control that modulates resistance, which was a pleasant surprise. Otherwise, works as advertised.

Good quality casual HOTAS
I use this with Elite: Dangerous, and it has greatly improved by flying skills. I was mouse and keyboard before (which works fine) but this makes flight much more intuitive. Combat has gotten much easier, and the POV switch is excellent for menus.

Works Great for Elite Dangerous
Very happy with this flightstick. It comes in two pieces but I found it to be more stable assembled into one piece. Replced a 15 year old flightstick I was playing Elite Dangerous with. Very configurable in game.
