The system features 16 action buttons on the stick, 14 on the throttle, and a dedicated 8-way Point of View (POV) hat, allowing you to map every critical flight and combat function. - 🛰️ OPTIMIZED FOR FLIGHT & SPACE SIMS: Perfectly tailored for an immersive experience in Microsoft Flight Simulator, Elite Dangerous, Star Citizen, and DCS. The ergonomic design and wide hand rest reduce fatigue during long-haul flights or intense dogfights. - 🛠️ T.A.R.G.E.T ECOSYSTEM: Use the advanced Thrustmaster Advanced pRogramming Graphical EdiTor software to create specific mapping profiles for every game.
