Thrustmaster has today introduced their new range of officially licensed Airbus, flight controllers designed to provide “lifelike features and sensations”. The brand-new range of civil aviation flight simulation accessories are compatible with Windows 10 and Windows 8 PC systems and include the TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition PC joystick and TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition companion controller, featuring two separate thrust levers, inspired by their real counterparts found on Airbus airliners.
“The TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition will later be followed by two complementary modules: the TCA Quadrant Add-On Airbus Edition (an additional product, sold separately), replicating the real air brake, flaps, autobrake and parking brake features found on world-famous Airbus airliners including the A320 and A320neo.The TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition features 8 ergonomic physical action buttons (plus 8 virtual buttons on the thrust levers, for a total of 16), which are replicas of Airbus airliner controls (A320neo type). Feel realistic sensations when using the buttons, detents and other controls — just like a real airline captain.”
