Description
Detachable joystick, made entirely of metal
Thanks to a metal plate that can be detached from its base, the HOTAS Warthog™ Flight Stick can be used on a desk or table, or mounted in a cockpit. The activation pressure of the buttons and the trigger of the stick are totally realistic.
Comprehensive controls
It features 19 action buttons in total, plus an 8-way "point of view" hat switch: 1 x 8-way "point of view" hat switch, 2 x 8-way hatswitches, 1 x 4-way hat switch with push button, 1 x double metal trigger, 2 x push buttons and 2 x pinky push buttons. The stick includes a USB connector and also features upgradeable firmware and is very stable (weighing over 3kg).
The most accurate and full-featured joystick available
The joystick incorporates 19 action buttons, plus a "Point Of View" hat. It provides extreme precision, thanks to the H.E.A.R.T HallEffect AccuRate Technology magnetic sensor system it employs: 16-bit precision (65,536 x 65,536 values), without gimbal suspensions. In addition, pressing the joystick buttons and triggers requires pressure identical to that needed in a real aircraft, a first in the world of joysticks. Particular attention has been paid to freedom of use for simulation enthusiasts, which is why the joystick lever is detachable, as is its base (to allow the user to install the joystick in a cockpit).
