    I got this joy stick for Microsoft flight sim 2020. It does what it needs to do. Really nice that it has its own throttle controls and has 2 different ways to control the rutters. Super easy to use. I use this on pc but it also works on the xbox.

    I have used joy sticks before, but they were nowhere as sophisticated as they are now. In other words, I am about 20 years behind on flight simulators! Today is my first try using them and at the moment I am frustrated! I like the feel of it and like having a throttle rather than having to use the keyboard, but I need to have the patience to learn how to set everything up. Once that is done, I believe I will like it! I hope!

    Flight stick and buttons are ok. The throttle is absolutely garbage. There is no tension at all it falls all the way forward or all the way backwards with a little stop in the middle. I would wait for something better or go PC because these are ok at best.

    4 stars. Great for a quick setup, but ultimately lacking in the amount of buttons to assign configurations for different tasks. Will be very fun to use for beginners and very easy to learn on. Its sturdy enough to take a bit of a beating, but definitely not designed for a pro. The price is fair, if a bit on the expensive side.

    I've got a very complex racing wheel and pedal set for my Oculus system, but when I picked up Star Wars Squadrons for my Xbox, I wouldn't even play it since controlling with the Xbox controller was awful. And of course thanks to Microsoft's Flight Sim, HOTAS units were impossible to find forever. I was randomly checking a few places every week or so and was fortunate enough to catch one in stock here at Best Buy, so I snagged it right away. The length of the cord isn't that great, but fortunately I had a USB extension cable from my first Oculus headset, allowing me to get a decent distance from my TV. Fired up the game, and this made ALL the difference. It went from annoying to enjoyable instantly. Not sure how many people would play with the thrust and flight control sticks connected, but that would work. However there's enough cord to separate them and get them comfortably distanced from each other. For me, the bonus is that this is natively recognized by the game so I can SEE what buttons will do what, I didn't have to remap controls or anything. I wish there was a bit more resistance on the throttle stick, but for this price, I'm pleased that it's responsive and works. Buttons are for the most part placed well, just some muscle memory now to train as I start to use it. All in all, for this price, it's light years beyond using the controllers that come with a game system. Definitely NOT worth the scalp prices you find them online, but if you wait like I did and snag it at retail price it's worth it.

    Great Entry Level HOTAS for Newcomers

    I use this for War Thunder simulator mode. So far, it's been amazing. It has lots of buttons for key bindings. However, this won't be enough if you're heavy into simulation such as DCS. This does not have force feedback, meaning you must rely on visual effects (blackout or greyscale) or audio cues as for what is happening to your aircraft. For the price, you cannot complain as it works amazingly. Good for checking out simulator to see if it's something you want to dive deeper before dropping hundreds of dollars.

    Open Box - Excellent unit is actually excellent!

    I ordered one of these T-Flight Hotas One units in Open Box - Excellent condition from Best Bey for just under $40. I've been eyeing one of these starter-level HOTAS units for a while, and I specifically wanted the T-Flight HOTAS One so that I could use it with my Xbox Series X and PC. I could never really justify the $100 price tag for a brand new unit so I had been scanning FB marketplace for several months, and then I realized that Best Buy sells open box units for less than half of the retail price, which is cheaper than any I had seen used on FB marketplace, so I took a shot figuring even if the condition was poorer than advertised, it would still be functional. I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived, although honestly it was kind of dirty, and has one noticeable scuff mark on the base. The allen key needed to attach the stick and throttle units together was still in its slot on the bottom of the HOTAS, and overall it really did look like a brand new unit (minus the scuff). I'm happy to report that it also plays like a brand new unit. I've been using mine for close to a month now and haven't noticed any of the major issues that are typically described with the T-Flight HOTAS One. It has made Elite: Dangerous and Microsoft Flight Simulator a lot more enjoyable for me, maybe one day I'll consider getting a more expensive HOTAS with more accurate tracking, but in my experience this unit is plenty sensitive and accurate and for $40 I literally could not have asked for a better price. Thanks, Best Buy!

    Bought this primarily for MS Flight Sim 2020 and Star Wars Squadrons in VR. It's a great entry-level HOTAS stick. The stick and spring work well and has a great feel to them. They sit firmly on the desk and does not move around. It's easy to configure and get up and running on the PC. One drawback is the loose feel on the throttle. I wish there was a way to stiffen up its glide up and down the channel. The looseness makes using the back buttons difficult because pressing them can affect the throttle position. The other drawback is the relatively short cable connecting the throttle and stick. If you want to operate in a split configuration, you can barely fit a full-size keyboard between the 2.

    Awsome controller for Xbox and especially for Microsoft flight simulator. The price is also very good and even better when you get it on sale! The controls are very responsive and you can even attach them together as one piece or separate them for a more desktop experience.

    I bought this as an open box item. I see zero defects with it and it works flawlessly. Vey nice, just wish the cable between the throttle and stick was longer. If you have a smaller keyboard it will sit between the throttle and stick fine. But a full size keyboard is a little tight. Overall though, great hotas for a resonable price.

    Great joystick for the price. I was concerned about when I'd receive it since I saw this joystick was 'out of stock' nearly everywhere. I came to find it's because the new Microsoft Flight Sim recently released and these were the best 'budget' sticks available. I wish there were more keys available to map to; I purchased this for Star Wars Squadrons and would prefer to customize the controls further than what's available. However, I was able to plug-n-play with this one right out of the box and there are certainly enough buttons to get the job done (the game WAS made to be playable with a regular xBox controller...) This joystick will likely result in the purchase of more flight sims for the xBox and PC... Of note: I saw this joystick listed for twice the price on Amazon (from 3rd party sellers) that seemed to capitalize on the scarcity... I ordered from Best Buy with a standard shipping option and though they quoted 28 Dec for arrival, it was delivered Christmas Eve! Don't overpay!
