Thrustmaster and Boeing have joined forces to create a new range of TCA controllers designed to be used with PC and Xbox consoles to provide even more immersion in flight simulation games such as Microsoft’s iconic Flight Simulator game.

“An exciting new flagship endeavor for Thrustmaster, the TCA Boeing Edition range features unique, exclusive, and proprietary technologies integrated with a specific goal in mind: allowing users to replicate the controls, flight kinematics and sensations experienced by real Boeing pilots at the controls of a Dreamliner — right from the comfort of their favorite desk or table. This previously inaccessible yet highly aspirational world of civil aviation is now within reach for the entire flight sim community.
Based on the world-famous Dreamliner range of Boeing’s civil aviation business, Thrustmaster’s very first yoke system represents a truly revolutionary leap forward that completely changes the game for flight sim novices and experts alike. The TCA Yoke Boeing Edition is a flight controller that’s legendary, highly realistic and incredibly versatile.”
