Thrustmaster TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition

The Thrustmaster TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition is an officially licensed, 1:1 scale ergonomic replica of the Airbus sidestick, designed for civil aviation simulation on Windows PC. Engineered for high-fidelity control, the sidestick utilizes H.E.A.R.T (HallEffect AccuRate Technology), employing 3D magnetic sensors to provide 16-bit resolution without the use of potentiometers. The modular design features four interchangeable head button modules, allowing for left-handed, right-handed, or central stick configurations to match captains or co-pilots' seating in various airliner cockpits. Modular Airbus Architecture Ambidextrous Design: Includes 4 swappable joystick head button modules to configure the stick for Captain, Co-pilot, or central flight deck positions. Form Factor: Ergonomic 1:1 scale replica designed to replicate the grip profile of real-world commercial Airbus aircraft. Integrated Rudder: Features a twist-handle Z-axis for rudder control, with a physical locking button for users utilizing dedicated rudder pedals. Built-in Throttle: Includes a throttle axis on the base with a functional thrust reverser mechanism. Precision & Sensor Technology Magnetic Sensors: 3D Hall Effect sensors deliver frictionless operation, preventing mechanical wear and maintaining precision over time. Resolution: 16-bit resolution (16,384 x 16,384 values) provides granularity for pitch and roll inputs during critical flight phases. Resistance: Internal helical spring ensures linear, smooth, and consistent tension throughout the stick's range of motion. Compatibility & PC Software OS Compatibility: Native plug-and-play support for Windows 10 and 11. Simulator Support: Automatically recognized and mapped for the A320neo and other airliners in Microsoft Flight Simulator and X-Plane. T.A.R.G.E.T Software: Compatible with Thrustmaster Advanced pRogramming Graphical EdiTor to create custom mapping and deadzone profiles. Ecosystem: Features a SATA port for connecting secondary TCA Quadrant modules. What’s in the Box 1 x Thrustmaster TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition. 4 x Swappable Joystick Head Button Modules.
