Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog Flight Stick – Precision and Realism for Flight Sim Enthusiasts

The Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog Flight Stick is an advanced flight simulation controller designed to replicate the feel and functionality of the U.S. Air Force A-10C attack aircraft. Developed in collaboration with the flight simulation community, this HOTAS (Hands On Throttle And Stick) system offers an unparalleled level of realism, precision, and durability. Featuring a fully metal joystick, dual throttle system, and an advanced control panel, the HOTAS Warthog delivers an immersive experience for flight enthusiasts and professionals alike.

With magnetic HallEffect AccuRate Technology (H.E.A.R.T), the joystick and throttle provide ultra-precise inputs without mechanical wear, ensuring long-lasting performance. The joystick incorporates 19 action buttons and an 8-way hat switch, while the throttle features 17 action buttons and a mouse hat for precise in-game adjustments. The pull-and-push throttle system with a disengageable afterburner further enhances realism, making it an ideal choice for combat flight simulators, civilian aviation games, and space simulation titles.

Key Features:

• Authentic A-10C Replica Design – Modeled after the U.S. Air Force A-10C attack aircraft, providing a highly immersive and realistic experience.
• Robust All-Metal Construction – The joystick, throttle handles, and base are crafted from metal for superior durability and weight, offering a stable feel.
• H.E.A.R.T Magnetic Sensor Technology – Ensures unmatched precision with 16-bit resolution on the joystick and 14-bit resolution on each throttle, eliminating drift over time.
• 55 Fully Programmable Action Buttons – The joystick and throttle feature a combined total of 55 programmable controls, including hat switches, push buttons, and a trim wheel.
• Pull and Push Throttle System – A dual-throttle system with independent motor control, lockable throttles, and adjustable resistance allows for precise handling.
• Control Panel with Programmable LEDs – A customizable backlit control panel enhances night flying, featuring programmable LED indicators and multiple toggle switches.
