(Sliding Motion Advanced Rail Tracks) system, its smooth sliding motion feels natural and satisfying during extended use. With 5+3 axes, 14 buttons, and a mini-stick, the throttle provides extensive functionality for complex flight operations. Whether you’re strafing in space or commanding an aerial dogfight, this throttle combines versatility and ergonomics to keep you firmly in command.
What sets the TWCS Throttle apart?
Smooth and Adjustable Sliding Motion The S.M.A.R.T. rail system ensures consistent and frictionless throttle travel, eliminating the uneven resistance common in many competing products. The adjustable tension screw further lets you fine-tune the throttle feel to match your preferences, offering both smoothness and stability for precise maneuvers.
Extensive Control Options With 5 primary axes and three additional ones, the TWCS Throttle accommodates complex flight scenarios. The mini-stick for elevation and strafing and the rotary dial for antenna control add extra layers of versatility, perfect for detailed cockpit management or space simulation games.
Modular Compatibility The TWCS Throttle integrates seamlessly into the Thrustmaster ecosystem, with a connector for external TFRP rudder pedals and full support for other peripherals. This modular approach ensures an expandable setup for pilots looking to enhance their controls further.
Ready for Cockpit Mounting Featuring two M6 screw threads and four rubber pads, the throttle is equally at home mounted in a cockpit or placed on a desk. This adaptability gives pilots the freedom to design their setup as they see fit, ensuring comfort and stability in any environment.
