The throttle is amazing. Incredibly hefty with great tactile feedback and smooth as butter. The joystick has an all metal exterior which exudes quality. However, the internal mechanism utilizes all plastic parts which are prone to wear if not properly cared for. Out of the box the movement is not as smooth as I liked due to stiction. After disassembling the joystick and sanding the plastic mold seams the joystick became much smoother. Once done, with the addition of ample amounts of quality plastic-safe grease the joystick is a 'joy' to use, pun intended. I can't imagine it wearing out. I also did the teflon ring mod which replaces the stock rubber ring with a teflon one for durability. Contact Hempstead to order one - they're cheap and worthwhile.

Do you need a flight stick? Do you need a throttle control? Do you want something that will last? Do you want this to be the last stick you will ever need? If you answered YES to all of these questions then THIS IS THE STICK YOU NEED!!! Yes, the stick really is that awesome. I will admit, the price tag has kept me scared and away from it for some time. But I promise you this, nothing and I mean NOTHING comes close to this setup. I have used 7 different sticks and HOTAS configs over the past 15 years and this one is the absolute best. The precision is spot on and flawless. The stick and HOTAS itself is built of metal and very little plastic. The buttons and switches are solid and do not feel like they are going to break off. The controls are VERY sensitive though but can be adjusted easily. Now for the TARGET software. There have been a lot of complaints over it and personally I don't have many. Other than the fact the instructions are useless, once you figure out how to use the software it works pretty well.Read full review
The quality and feel of the Thrustmaster HOTAS Joystick and Throttles are the best I have ever purchased. They are also the most expensive Joystick and throttle combinations I have ever purchased, but worth the money for anyone serious about flight simulators. The metal construction and smoothness of the controls give, in my opinion, the most realistic feel possible. The LED back lit placards on the throttle base ad a nice touch. The throttles have an idle/cutoff detente, and a full range throttle. They can also be configured easily to have an afterburner detente at the top end. All things considered, I am very happy with my Thrustmaster HOTAS Joystick and Throttle purchase. I hope they last along time...

Definitely not for the faint hearted! Incredible H.O.T.A.S. system. You will need rudders to go with this one..........craftsmanship, material are above the stratosphere! Not for your casual flight sim enthusiast! Comes at a hefty price but well worth it. Feels just like it did in my old bird.

I am happy w the purchase of this stick. Dead spot on throttle...deal breaker? No but it is a pain and hopefully can be corrected. This stick is SOLID - @ 12 pounds it will require considerable effort to make the stick move from where it is placed. The hotas has 3 hats & 10 switches, buttons and slides. It's an investment...not an expense. 🙃🤙
