1. Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS Hotas
The T.16000M FCS HOTAS from Thrustmaster is a controller set for PC, consisting of a joystick designed for Elite Dangerous and a HOTAS flight control system that offers intuitive and realistic control options for space and flight simulation games.
Overview of the T.16000M FCS HOTAS set:
- Joystick with an 8-way coolie hat and 12 buttons
- Configurable for both right and left-handed users
- Throttle with 14 buttons, 3 thumbsticks, S.M.A.R.T. mounted, 16-bit polling rate
- For outstanding precision and intuitive control of flight simulators and space games
Total immersion for IL-2 and others. The joystick ensures a stable position due to its relatively high weight combined with a low center of gravity and its rubberized base. The 3D magnetic field technology with a sampling rate of 16,000 x 16,000 dpi guarantees highly precise control in games like Star Citizen or Mech Warrior. It can also be adapted for both right and left-handed users using the included tools and grip shells.

With its numerous programmable buttons, it, together with the joystick, provides a very realistic and especially immersive control experience for all flight and simulation games. This enables significantly more complex flight maneuvers with higher precision.
