Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Thrustmaster T16000M FCS Windows-compatible by Ryan Dot

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Great controller for beginners, solid option for power users who don't want to spend a fortune

I've been using game controllers for decades, so I can be picky at times. . However, this HOTAS is a great option, especially considering the price. It's perfect for Elite Dangerous, the game I'm currently using it for, and works really well for me. At the time of this review, I've been using it for a month and it's running consistently with no crashes or issues. I took this HOTAS because I was fed up with the problems with my X55 and X56. Logitech's support has been excellent, but I'd rather have fewer buttons and fewer problems than risk perpetuating the problems I was dealing with. My plan is to go with Thrustmaster and save up one of the almost absurdly expensive options, but since it's been over a year at best, this one's fine. Eventually I plan to buy bar pedals as well as they are the only ones that fit my Obutto oZone. (I could have spent more on a different Obutto model, but it seemed a little silly given the extra features.) The only thing I don't like about this product is that there doesn't seem to be an easy way to control this light on a stick. . I'd rather it be either on or off than light up when I move the stick. However, this is rather a minor thing and definitely not worth lowering my rating. For the price it's perfect and excellent value for money.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Weight
