Surprised to see my local PC shop has this in stock, at a fair price. I know it is more or less the same hardware as the T16000. Has anyone tried this out and if so, any strong opinions either way? Might pick one up to use alongside my CH Products kit. Seems to have an unusual rudder setup using the trigger but I will use my CH Products rudder pedals anyway.

I use it for all airplanes that have a stick rather than a yoke.

I really like it. It's plastic, that is true, but for the price it is surpsingly sturdy.

I use its rudder function (twisting the stick) as tiller. You can lock the rudder axis by pressing a button.

Has anybody compared the Airbus Edition stick with the standard T16000M?

Does it feel any different? Different haptic or friction?

Thanks!

I have both. The Airbus stick does feel a little different, the design of the stick is Airbus like and this might help with the feel.

I think the quality is good and I like it. I am a recently retired real world Airbus pilot and this has good feel at this price point.

I have the Airbus stick after upgrading from a Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS setup and I'm impressed. The plastic is solid, if a little bit cheap looking on the blue base, but that's just cosmetic. The precision is excellent though I had to turn down the sensitivity slightly in MSFS. The trigger is good and there's plenty of buttons on the base and the stick itself. The twist for the rudder axis can be locked out with a physical button in the grip.

It's also got a heavy base so you won't drag it across the desk while fighting turbulence on short final!

i love it!

Done! I bought it, now to wait for it to arrive, hopefully Monday. 😉
