The product seems to be of good quality, for the moment no problem, it remains to be seen in time but I have no fear on this side.

Designed for experienced pilots who need complete, realistic controls, the Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS Flight Pack is the perfect replacement for your mouse or keyboard. It includes the T.16000M FCS (Flight Control System) joystick, the TWCS (Thrustmaster Weapon Control System) throttle lever and the TFRP (Thrustmaster Flight Rudder Pedals) rudder pedal for absolutely unrivalled immersion.
The Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS Flight Pack is the ideal partner for gamers who want to engage the enemy with surgical precision.
For unrivalled precision performance, the pitch and roll controls on the T.16000M FCS joystick feature H.E.A.R. technology. T HallEffect AccuRate Technology, which offers 16-bit resolution (16,000 x 16,000 values); an extreme level of precision, identical to that of the exclusive HOTAS Warthog joystick, enabling players to engage the enemy with surgical precision.
The T.16000M FCS features 4 independent axes, with a rotary rudder (controlled by the rotation of the joystick), 16 action buttons with physical identification of the buttons in "Braille language", an 8-way viewpoint Chinese hat and an ergonomic trigger. Its orange-accented casing and backlighting guarantee players an absolutely incomparable level of immersion.
Use your left hand and improve your agility in combat with the TWCS (Thrustmaster Weapon Control System) throttle. The lower position of the throttle compared with quadrant systems offers unrivalled comfort. And to provide enthusiasts with the full range of controls, it features 14 buttons and an 8-way Chinese viewpoint cap, in addition to those on the joystick.
In all, you have 5 axes, 30 buttons, two 8-way Chinese hats and S.M.A.R.T. (Sliding Motion Advanced Rail Tracks)technology. S.M.A.R.T. offers an exclusive system of sliding rails to guarantee fluid, ultra-precise movement over the 80 mm of throttle travel, for precise manoeuvring.
The TFRP Rudder Pedals feature two pedals supported by a technology as specific as it is innovative: S.M.A.R.T for Sliding Motion Advanced Rail Track. This is a system of 4 industrial-grade anodised aluminium rails. Their design ensures that the slides move perfectly smoothly. These tracks are combined with a self-centring rudder shaft.
These two features combine to provide just the right balance between fluidity of action and resistance to return to centre.
The fatal weapon of the Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS Hotas joystick is called T.A.R.G.E.T(Thrustmaster Advanced pRogramming Graphical EdiTor). This is a software suite that lets you create programmes of varying complexity using only the mouse, based on a 'drag and drop' principle. Several programming levels are available: 'Basic' for beginners, 'Advanced' for advanced functions and 'Script' for the full power of the software.
T.A.R.G.E.T. allows full interaction between different Thrustmaster USB controllers, simplified configurations in simulators, and the use of a single profile for all controllers rather than as many profiles as there are controllers. Finally, and this is a definite advantage, T.A.R.G.E.T includes predefined profiles for famous titles, recent and older, and moreover allows new profiles to be created!

The product seems to be of good quality, for the moment no problem, it remains to be seen in time but I have no fear on this side.
I bought this HOTAS kit to play around with on a couple of flight sets and I am more than happy with it.
The positive points:
+Pleasant handling
+Complete customisation of the controls
+The Thruster is really nice.
+The precision of the controls is remarkable.
Negative points:
-The finish is not exceptional, but considering the price, more than reasonable.
-For me the Stick trigger is a bit too "stiff".
-The rudder slides quite a bit.
Good quality product. Incomparable with my old joysticks (cyborg fly 5 which fell apart with each use). I find it very accurate, good grip, good ergonomics. I would have liked the joystick to be at thumb level, but otherwise it's fine. I can't judge the reliability as I bought it too recently.
I bought this HOTAS to play elite dangerous and it is really excellent. Very good value for money, I find it very well made, the buttons are very accessible whether on the joystick or throttle. I also find the materials of good quality and the solidity seems to be there. At this price, it makes this set the best value for money in my opinion. The cables are also quite long (about 2m).
I've been using it for a while now, but it's a bit of a pity that it's not packed in a box. The price is correct for the material. Works with FSX X- PLANE 11- AEROFLIHGT 2. Difficulty to set up some functions especially the rudder under FSX. No installation cd, you have to download the drivers. The rudder plug is an RJ plug which is put on the throttle. The material is a little light and deserves a similar fixing for the rudder. A wheelchair is not so good, better a fixed chair. It remains to refine the adjustments for pleasant flights now
