Description
The THRUSTMASTER T.16000M FCS is an advanced flight simulation joystick designed for realistic and exceptionally precise control, aimed at experienced flight and space simulation enthusiasts. Developed using Thrustmaster's 25 years of expertise in flight simulation controllers, it provides an effective alternative to traditional keyboard and mouse controls.
Featuring H.E.A.R.T magnetic technology for long-lasting precision without mechanical sensor wear, the joystick offers four independent axes, 16 action buttons and an 8-way POV hat switch. Its fully ambidextrous design supports both left-handed and right-handed use, while advanced T.A.R.G.E.T software allows users to customise controls and create individual game profiles.
Key Features:
-
H.E.A.R.T magnetic technology: patented HallEffect AccuRate Technology™ provides exceptionally accurate pitch and roll detection with 16-bit resolution, offering 16,000 × 16,000 values. Contactless magnetic sensors maintain long-term precision without mechanical wear.
-
Four independent axes: provide precise aircraft pitch and roll control, twist rudder operation and progressive throttle adjustment via the integrated slider.
-
16 action buttons: feature tactile identification markings for easy recognition during gameplay. The joystick also includes an 8-way Point of View (POV) hat switch and an ergonomic trigger.
-
Fully ambidextrous design: three removable components allow quick configuration for left-handed or right-handed use. Compatible games also support simultaneous operation of two joysticks.
-
Lockable twist rudder: rotating the joystick handle controls the rudder, while a locking mechanism allows the function to be disabled when not required.
-
Precision spring mechanism: a 2.8 mm diameter helical spring provides firm, consistent and smooth resistance for improved flight control.
-
Backlighting and ergonomic design: orange accents and backlighting enhance the joystick's appearance, while thoughtfully positioned controls ensure comfortable and intuitive operation, including in virtual reality (VR) flight simulators.
-
T.A.R.G.E.T software: enables users to create, load and share customised profiles for individual games. Compatible Thrustmaster devices can be combined into a single logical USB device, with up to 256 programmable buttons across the flight simulation ecosystem.
-
Expandable Thrustmaster flight ecosystem: the joystick supports additional accessories such as the TWCS throttle, TFRP rudder pedals and MFD multifunction cockpit panels, sold separately.
