T.16000M FCS Joystick
Thrustmaster has devoted its 25 years of expertise in flight sim controllers to meet the growing demand from flight simmers in general – and space simmers in particular.
The T.16000M FCS has been designed for advanced fliers looking for comprehensive, realistic controls as an alternative to using a mouse and keyboard.
The T.16000M FCS (Flight Control System) flight stick is compatible with PC via USB in Windows 10, 8 and 7 (32-bit and 64-bit).

T.16000M FCSThe T.16000M FCS features 4 independent axes, including twist rudder (controlled by rotating the stick), 16 action buttons with “braille”-style physical button identification, one 8-way Point of View (PoV) hat switch and an ergonomic trigger. Its striking orange accents and backlighting bring gamers’ immersion to a whole new level. | H.E.A.R.T HallEffect AccuRate TechnologyIn order to deliver exclusive high-precision performance, pitch and roll on the T.16000M FCS flight stick employ H.E.A.R.T HallEffect AccuRate Technology (U.S. patent US08471815) for 16-bit resolution (i.e. 16000 x 16000 values) – the same pinpoint accuracy delivered by the extremely high-end HOTAS Warthog joystick, allowing gamers to engage their enemies with surgical precision. The helical spring (0.1” / 2.8 mm in diameter) inside the stick provides firm, linear and smooth tension. | Ambidextrous designThe joystick’s unique ambidextrous design can be easily switched between right-handed and left-handed use. Its twisting handle controls the rudder by default, but can also be locked in place. Piloting with a joystick in each hand is now possible in all games compatible with two joysticks. |

Great first set of sticks
Bought these to increase control / realism in Farming Simulator (Logging / Excavation Machines) and once configured I reckon you could use these to train operators. The amount of adjustability and customisation available is great. They’re well built and sturdy, and after putting a good few hundred hours into them they’re still as good as the day I got them. Definitely recommend over others as buying the duo gives you left and right hand stick grips, whereas others don’t for this price point.
Great Affordable Hardware.
Great price for what it is. Stick sometimes ends up stuck slightly to the left when I let it spring back to neutral, but that’s an easy fix.
Works grea
It’s not the coolest looking design for a HOTAS at this price, but works really well. Very smooth and with an absolute wealth of functions and software to control them.
Works well
I use this on Elite and Star Citizen and works a treat as long as there are profiles in game and find the joystick and throttle.
Not so good on flight sim 2020
Z axis drift and solutio
I found the throttle unit and stick very good until a drift appeared that caused the stick to appear in cockpit views to drift rendering it unusable.
This caused by a conflict between the stick z axis and the push mini stick on the throttle unit, unplugging the throttle unit immediately restores stability but renders the throttle useless. On the trottle menu delete the action of this mini stick should solve the problem ( but renders the mini stick out of action) on msfs 2020 an update seems to caused this, before the update all was good.
Amazing precision versus Hotas X and comparable to the Warthog
I bought this product as a Father’s Day present to myself to play DCS World. In particular F/A-18 and the super carrier DLC. It has the “real feel” element when combined with an Oculus Rift S headset. One thing to remember is that it takes practice to master any game but with this stick and a bit of practice you can quickly zone in to perfect even carrier landings. Massive accuracy/realism boost compared to my Hotas X.
Brillia
Upgraded to this HOTAS from a previous much simpler HOTAS, Glad i made the switch. There are 12 buttons on the stick base alone, which gives you many options. Stick feels good in the hand, the only issue i have is a lack of a 2 stage trigger. As for the throttle, it is quite large but most of the buttons are easily reachable, plus the smooth surface means you can just slide your hand up smoothly.
Overall, I do not know if i would recommend this stick to a beginner, the amount of buttons, whilst very nice and good to have, can be a bit intimidating, or even overwhelming, But its a very good system overall.
Thrustmaster T.16000 joystick works v. well, straight out of the box, with MS Flight Simulato
Thrustmaster T.16000 … such an improvement over my (20 years?) old joystick. True, that was one of the ‘force-feedback’ variety, which was fun, but this is perfectly adequate for an average user like me. High spec home pilots may look for something more of course. But perfect for me, using MSFS without other hardware equipment: very sensitive and true – the 16,000 separate Hall-effect-sensor detected points on each axis make for a smooth and sensitive response. Recommended.
Eccezionale
Un altro mondo rispetto al controller, ma per me non cos ovvio cercavo proprio questo e provenivo da un orribile PXN 2113 subito reso anche perch non riconosciuto dal pc. Non solo simulatori di volo ma anche vetture gran turismo e di guida in genere, ma l’ho appena spacchettato e provato poco. Aggiorner
Per me arabo quello che dice t.. a. r. g e t.ma meglio ci siano gli script. Consiglio
Great quality
Makes elite dangerous awsome to play. I am just a casual player by the way. Also good for Star Wars squadrons.
Not cheap - but good
Work well with Condor Gliding SIm. Rudder control is critical for a glider so adds degree of realism. Easy to set up and work perfectly. Well made and sturdy. Not cheap but worth it.
