Straightforward control device
- August 7, 2013[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used to have fun with MS Flight Sim 95 with the keyboard as a control, but find it difficult to tell aircraft settings (elevators in particular) with the newer version ten, so decided to try a joy stick. This is the first one I've owned (aside from the kids' Atari!) so I'll defer to the experienced gamers to compare it to other sticks. Bottom line: it works fine - boots up automatically - no complaints, other than that the handle appears to have been designed for someone wearing a flight suit!

Good for price
- September 12, 2020[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned more expensive flight controllers so this was obviously not as good for controller fine sensitivity but for the price you get a controller that gives you options that exceeded anything I could find in the price range. If you are looking to play a few on line flight games casually this will do the trick. If you want high quality flight sim sensitivity you may need to go up a little in price range

Didn't work returned it
- January 27, 2018[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I bought this unit, it looked like the box had been opened before and returned. It connected to my PC , it said it recognize it and configured it - but could not get it to work or respond in any way. After messing with it for about a half hour and trying different things, I returned it.

Good basic flight joystick
- July 1, 2018[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this joystick on both Windows 7 and Ubuntu Linux for the Flightgear simulator. It works fine. I just plugged the joystick into a USB port and started the application. It was installed and the application recognized it immediately.

Excellent controller
- July 20, 2013[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As stated above the ThrustMaster USB controller was a gem to used, however the unit proved to be defective. I have in fact reordered the unit, hoping that lightning does not strike twice in the same spot.

Solid
- December 11, 2014[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hi. Good product for playing some old school PC games. Probably better products out there that cost more but I was just looking to get something so that I could enjoy Xwing and Tie Fighter.
