What sets the TCA Captain Pack X Airbus Edition apart?
-
Airbus-Authentic Design The sidestick and quadrant are true 1:1 scale replicas, giving you the same control layout and feel as the real Airbus A320. With this attention to detail, everything from the landing gear lever to the speed brake mimics the actual aircraft, making your setup as close to a real cockpit as possible.
-
Thrust Reverser Mechanism A rare addition to home flight sim controllers, the built-in thrust reverser adds depth to your landing sequences. It’s a unique feature that brings added realism to your sessions, especially when combined with the quadrant's detailed throttle detents.
-
Integrated Ecosystem Hub Simplified connectivity is a game-changer with the new hub design. Connect all your Thrustmaster Airbus accessories—rudder pedals, add-ons, and more—using a single USB cable. This design minimizes clutter and enhances compatibility with Xbox Series X|S and PC platforms.
-
Versatility and Modularity The sidestick offers customizable button head modules and can adapt for left-handed, right-handed, or central cockpit positions. This makes the controller versatile for solo flights or co-pilot setups, catering to both casual simmers and serious enthusiasts.

TCA Captain Pack X Airbus Edition Compatibility
The TCA Captain Pack X Airbus Edition integrates seamlessly with the Thrustmaster T.Flight Rudder Pedals (TFRP) and the Thrustmaster Pendular Rudder (TPR) systems, as well as with other add-ons like the TM Flying Clamp. Its Ecosystem Hub makes it easier than ever to connect all components using a single USB cable, supporting both Xbox Series X|S and PC platforms. However, the quadrant’s Airbus-specific design may not suit enthusiasts looking for a Boeing-style setup or generic controls.
On the gaming front, it’s fully compatible with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and integrates automatically on both PC and Xbox Series X|S. This pack also supports various other titles on Xbox and PC with customizable mappings, though it may not work with older consoles or unsupported games.
