Game Controllers ThrustMaster series Hotas
ThrustMaster Hotas
ThrustMaster's HOTAS range includes advanced controls for pilots and enthusiasts who need a complete set of realistic virtual aircraft controls. When designing them, ThrustMaster engineers strived for maximum realism, so all products meet all the requirements of the HOTAS industry standard, are made of metal, weigh decently and completely repeat real-life counterparts. For example, the popular Hotas Warthog set, which mimics the controls of a US Army combat fighter, is made one to one like the original and weighs almost 7 kg.
Another interesting option in this line is the versatile and relatively affordable HOTAS X kit. It consists of an ergonomic joystick and control stick that can be adapted to any type of flight, whether it's flying in Flight Simulator X civilian ships, dogfights or intergalactic travel. It is equipped with 12 programmable buttons, its own memory for storing settings, a vibration motor for feedback and advanced drivers, thanks to which the device is immediately recognized by the game without having to fiddle with additional control settings.
During the existence of the HOTAS series, several flight kits have been released under its flags, which in most cases consist of a control joystick, a separate controller for thrust control and an optional rudder pedal. All of them are primarily designed for connection to a PC and use a classic USB connector. The kits that were released between 2010 and 2012 also officially support the PlayStation 3 consoles. But the correct work with the PS4 and PS5 is not guaranteed by the manufacturer. Therefore, in 2016, the company released a PS4-adapted T.Flight Hotas 4 flight kit specifically for PS4.
