I was however very happy with Amazon's return policy and the fact that I did not have to pay for the shipping to send this defective product back.
I recommend this product for first time buyers of joystick and throttle setups, but definitely invest in a more serious setup if your looking to do some more serious gaming
This is a great product, works well, and was received promptly
Great product in Great condition, would buy from again 10/10
The product arrived very quickly and is comfortable to use but the 5th button was broken, very dissapointing
I recommend this F.S. to anyone who loves Flight simulators.lonyF.Y.II`m the manager of the biggest & BEST gaming Forum in my country, so take it from a hardcore GAMER that knows...
My quest for a programmable usb joystick and throttle combination for XP led me to the super affordable T-Flight Hotas USB Controller.

It lasted a good while but eventually the potentiometers in the twist went bad and it was time to find a new joystick
I bought it to better play Elite: Dangerous (I backed it from inception and have had acces from alpha builds
All in all, my verdict is that it's a great value for what you pay andTHE GOOD:- Solid (plastic
At first I was skeptical because it appeared to me that the Thrustmaster T-flight stick might be made of cheap light weight plastic and just wouldn't feel right
The plastic creaks a bit like plastic does, but it works very well, is sensitive enough, and has good button placement
Overall, I was concerned about the cheap plastic feel and the "Made in China" logo
Made of fairly cheap plastic, this is going to wear out after a while.
The only problems I have with this stick is its lack of buttons which I had grown accustom too with the Saitek X52... however if you cant use your
my first one, so I have nothing to compare, but works great with Elite and MS flight Sim - as a
The throttle is smooth and solid with plenty of buttons to use which are located perfectly for index finger and thumb control, it also has a center zone that clicks in at zero throttle which I love as it keeps me from sliding into reverse in the heat of things
I use the controller with the FS as-well-as with ATS games and for me, it's simply works great and at what I feel at a very fair price.
It does, however, suffer from a severe lack of buttons, sliders, and hat switches
The throttle has a nice smooth range of motion with forward and reverse and a "dead" spot for 0.Styling isn't my favorite, and the colors are a little underwhelming.

They do supply with with a wrench, which has a nice spot to keep it secure when not in use

The throttle has a neutral spot which would be handy for forward and reverse but not for aircraft.
Obviously a more expensive model can be a lot nicer, but this is a really good way to get started without breaking the bank.

Overall I will be buying a more expensive model that will be of higher quality
If you have a larger budget and do a lot of gaming I would recommend considering a more expensive model.
For it being the cheap model it performs just as good as the more expensive ones
Bought it for ELITE Dangerous, it has functioned well for the
I don't like some of the squeaking or the plasticy feel, but if you are entertaining "Elite: Dangerous" or other flying vehicle games this is a great place to start before you get too stupidly invested.
I've only used it for a day or two, so far, but It is responsive (a bit too much in some cases; see below), comfortable and makes Elite Dangerous a joy to play
Well, a year later, I'm still playing Elite and this is still my flight stick of choice
I bought it to play Elite: Dangerous and it works great
I bought it to better play Elite: Dangerous (I backed it from inception and have had acces from alpha builds
It does have some sticking in the throttle and some squeaking noises in the trigger, but a couple of drops of machine oil will fix that right up.
my theustmaster makes some squeaky noises when I turn on the joystick and it's annoying
, the only problems might be the noise my joystick makes when I move it and the low number of buttons(I use it for elite dangerous, it uses a lot of controls), but I can live with those especially considering how dirt cheap it is
