    Description

    High quality Add-on Grip for your Thrustmaster Warthog

    The Thrustmaster F/A-18C Hornet HOTAS Add-On Grip is a replica of the famous McDonnell Douglas F/A-18C flightstick, and specially designed for demanding flightsimmers, with Boeing’s permission. The stick weights 720 gram, and is made of high-quality sustainable materials. Because of this, the stick does not only give you an authentic Hornet feeling, but it also has a long lifespan.
    The flightstick is an Add-On, which can be used with the Thrustmaster Warthog base, or with the Thrustmaster Cougar base (not included)

    19 action buttons at the top of your fingertips

    The F/A-18C Hornet has nineteen fully programmable action buttons. Because Thrustmaster spent a lot of time working on this addon, the feeling of the buttons can be compared tot he feeling of the ‘real’ F/A-18C Hornet flightstick. A good example of this is the realistic 2-step strigger.
    In addition, the Hornet joystick has a Point of View (POV) hat switch, two 4-way hat switches with push button, and two pink push buttons, among others. More than enough to have all functions within reach during the most critical moments.

    Built-in integration with Digital Combat Simulator (DCS)

    The Hornet stick automatically integrates through the F/A-18C module, with Digital Combat Simulator (DCS). The DCS’s realism and the flightstick’s realistic feeling give you the ultimate flying experience during missions and dogfights. Of course, the Add-On Grip is also compatible with other flight simulator games.

    Endless possibilities

    With Trustmaster’s T.A.R.G.ET. (Thrustmaster Advanced pRogramming Graphical EdiTor) software the possibilities to customize your joystick are endless. T.A.R.G.E.T. allows you to program your joystick the way you want to, but if you have no knowledge of programming it is also possible to choose a standard profile (and adjust it).

    Pros and cons

    • The stick is made out of metal for 85%
    • Compatible with the Cougar and Warthog joystick base
    • Automatic integration with DCS
    • The Add-On Grip is sold without a joystick base

    niets dan lof

    snelle levering, gemakkelijke montage, goeie grip. Kortom niets dan lof voor deze grip. Ik ben zelf een DCS-vlieger en dit was een hele goeie investering :D

    Amazing Grip

    The grip feels amazing. Solid construction and well made. The buttons have a much better feedback compared to the A-10 grip, but the dual stage trigger feels different compared to the A-10 trigger on release.
    Something you will have to do is upgrade your old Grip Base firmware to version 12 so it knows which grip you have in place. In all a very nice addition.

    F/A-18C

    Sinds enkele dagen de F/A-18C stick in bezit, en ben er tot dus ver zeer tevreden over. De stick is robuust en de knoppen voelen ook allemaal stevig tijdens gebruik, eigenlijk net zoals de Warthog stick. De stick heeft in principe evenveel knoppen als de originele warthog stick, dus qua input gaat de stick er niet op vooruit. Echter heeft de stick wel een extra two-way switch inclusief drukknop die normaal niet op de stick van de F/A-18C zit. Dit is wel fijn om bijv. zoom of je TrackIR reset onder te brengen.

    De stick zou automatisch geconfigureerd moeten worden bij gebruik in DCS F/A-18C, zoals dat ook al met de Warthog stick voor DCS A-10C het geval was. Echter werd de F/A-18C stick niet opgepikt door mijn PC. Je moet in T.A.R.G.E.T. GUI de Warthog stick updaten naar firmware 12, maar ook hierna werkte dit vooralsnog niet. Het is een kleine moeite om zelf de juiste configuratie in te stellen in DCS, maar de functie zou er volgens Thrustmaster wel op moeten zitten.

    Als toevoeging voor de DCS F/A-18C sim is het zeker een leuke extra die meer immersie biedt, alhoewel voor een prijs. Als je de stick echter voor andere spellen gebruikt is het een dure aankoop voor een add-on stick die dezelfde input geeft als de Warthog stick. Voor mij 4/5 omdat de prijs toch vrij fors is.
    + Realistische replica, immersie
    + Goede kwaliteit, robuust
    + Extra knoppen t.o.v. originele F/A-18C stick

    - Prijs
    - Automatische integratie werkte vooralsnog niet
