Logitech G Saitek PRO Flight Throttle Quadrant, Professional Simulation Axis Levers, LCD Display, 3x Two-Way Rocker Switches, Adjustable Bracket, USB, PC - Black

I first downloaded Microsoft Flight Simulator -2020 in 2020. Could not control it, (under ANY circumstances), with the flight controls that I used for FSX. (This was a common complaint at the time!)No amount of support, user-group-discussion, or advice from similar users could get it to work. I sent it back (MSFS 2020) for a refund. Now, the 40th edition of MSFS comes out, just as my old stick completely fails. Time to try the Sim again, and I chose this bundle to try it with. SHAZZAAM! THIS SET WORKS RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX! Mind you, I'm no novice or 'newbee' to the world of flight simulation. I've been flying on it since the very first version! I'm also a real, licensed pilot. Both of these are solid, well-built pieces of hardware that are completely compatible with ALL simulation games! The operate smoothly and quietly. While they do not include any 'force-feedback,' there is no ambiguity in the control, whatsoever. Also, having the throttle quadrant really opens up the control options available in MSFS! It has a variety of mounting options so that it can be solidly placed and clamped to either vertical or horizontal surfaces, (you can't believe how great that is!)! Plenty of control axes and buttons to satisfy every taste and ability level. I highly recommend this great bundle value!

I had a Logitech Yoke system with the Throttle Quadrant which I purchased about five years ago or more. When I purchased a new HoneyComb Yoke I could no longer use the Logitech Quadrant since it has a proprietary PS/2 connection which only works with the older Logitech (a.k.a. Saitek) yoke. So I needed to buy this newer model which has a USB connection.It works just like the original and is recognized by X-Plane so it can be configured using the in game configuration setup. All of the switches can be programmed for various functions. The levers are per-configured by X-Plane when it's first installed, but you can change them to suite your needs. I have played Microsoft Flight Simulator and it works equally well with that game too.The device operates smoothy and is a very well made and solid throttle quadrant for the price. Unlike the older model this one can be mounted in a few different ways to your desk or flight sim setup - which is pretty cool.If you are looking for a well made throttle quadrant and can do with just the three levers this one is a solid choice and money well spent. There are a lot flight simmers who use this throttle, which should tell you something. It is probably the best one at this price point...IMO.

So this throttle quadrant comes 'PLUG AND PLAY' for MSFS. I didn't need to install any software. Microsoft was ready for it as soon as I plugged it in.The throttle itself is made from very low cost, form molded plastic. You get what you pay for here, so you need to be extra careful with it, because parts can break easily. The piece that mounts to your desk is also made from the same plastic. There is no metal, and the plastic screw going through the plastic lip to secure it to the desk could EASILY snap if hit very hard. Use caution.The levers are also made from plastic, but it's a slightly more pliable plastic that can take a little bending. Still not strong, and there's a decent risk for breakage if you have an accident. Nothing about this quadrant looks forgiving. Accidents happen, it's probably going to need replacing, but it's cheap.Functionality is terrific. Each lever is its own Axis (X,Y,Z) for complete customization in MSFS control options menu. It comes with additional lever caps and one that seems to be made if you have 2 of these quadrants side by side, because it connects to 4 levers to simulate a 4 engine airliner like the Boeing 747. Personally, I cut that piece in half to just fit across 2 levers. If I get another quadrant, I'll attach the other half so there's 2 for left and 2 for right engines. The quadrant also has 6 additional programmable buttons, 2 below each lever. These are not flip switches, so they can be programmed for 2 different functions. Very difficult to see if gaming in the dark, so you might want to apply some white fingernail polish or paint pen markings to make them more noticeable.All in all, This quadrant is 100% well worth $60, and I would say the most cost efficient throttle for flight sims under the Honeycomb Bravo. A fantastic little REALISM throttle for permanent use, or to just get you by while you wait for Honeycomb to take their sweet time figuring out the proper supply/demand ratio for their throttle.Support? Typical Logitech. Hope you never have to contact them.

This is an excellent, relatively compact, exceptionally versatile controller to add for pretty much ANY gamer.It works extremely amazing for single engine aircraft in flight simulators, consisiting of the standard controls for most small craft.Space sims like Star Citizen? Who CANT find a use for three more slider axis?!Tank simulators/games like War Thunder? You can use these for individual track control on tanks, etc.. Its pretty fun when you play a game with multiple crew in a tank and you can drive using just the throttles..Its affordable. Its pretty solid. The desk mount is versatile. After a few weeks, the sliders still are very accurate, smooth, and have no "wobble" to them.You will not find a better throttle/slider quadrant for the price.
