DESCRIPTION
- Thrustmaster has devoted its 25 years of expertise in flight sim controllers to meet the growing demand from flight simmers in general – and space simmers in particular – who have requested a mid-range standalone throttle. The TWCS Throttle (Thrustmaster Weapon Control System) has been designed for advanced fliers looking for comprehensive, ergonomic, comfortable and precise throttle for a realistic in game immersion.
- The TWCS (Thrustmaster Weapon Control System) throttle is the new component of the Thrustmaster FlightSim ecosystem. It is compatible with PC via USB in Windows 10, 8, 7 and Vista (32-bit and 64-bit).
- The TWCS throttle, thanks to its “low” position, enables seamless and precise actions under the hand and at the fingertips.
- The throttle’s S.M.A.R.T (Sliding Motion Advanced Rail Tracks) technology delivers a unique system of slide rails for perfectly smooth sliding motion and precision.
- The TWCS throttle features 5 (+3) axes, 14 action buttons + one 8-way Point of View hat switch.
- The T.A.R.G.E.T software allows you to load and create specific mapping profiles for each game.
SPECIFICATIONS
- TWCS throttle
- TWCS (Thrustmaster Weapon Control System) throttle: use your left hand to increase your combat speed and manage your spaceship or jet fighter. The TWCS throttle’s lower positioning compared to quadrant-based systems provides unrivalled comfort.
- To give simmers complete control, the TWCS throttle includes 14 buttons and one 8-way-PoV hat switch that are added to those of the joystick. In total, this provides gamers with 5 axes, 30 buttons and two 8-way PoVs – plus 3 extra axes via the optional TFRP rudder*. The TWCS throttle features 5 axes and a rear RJ12 connector offering 3 additional axes via the external optional TFRP rudder* from Thrustmaster’s flight product ecosystem. *Sold separately.
- S.M.A.R.T™ (Sliding Motion Advanced Rail Tracks) technology
- A unique system of slide rails for perfectly smooth throttle sliding motion – precise and comfortable, with 3.2 inch/80 mm range of travel for precise maneuvers. The tightening screw allows users to adjust the throttle’s friction level to suit their own personal taste.
- Thrustmaster advanced flying ecosystem
- These products are part of a range of flight simulation peripherals that can be used in conjunction with one another: a complete ecosystem featuring the FCS flight stick, TWCS throttle, TFRP rudder pedals* and MFD* (Multi-Functional Display) cockpit panels. These elements are also compatible with the T.A.R.G.E.T advanced programming software**. * Sold separately. ** Free of charge, available for download from the http://ts.thrustmaster.com website.
- T.A.R.G.E.T advanced programming software** on PC: program up to 256 buttons in the flying ecosystem
- Thrustmaster Advanced pRogramming Graphical EdiTor software: combine with other Thrustmaster devices (so that they are recognized as a single USB device), and load or create specific mapping profiles for each game. Tailor your own profiles to enhance most Thrustmaster flight controllers, and share them with the Thrustmaster community. ** Free of charge, available for download from the http://ts.thrustmaster.com website.
- Ergonomic design for optimum comfort and precision
- Thanks to its design and ergonomics, the TWCS Throttle provides players with multiple recognizable features, allowing them to become more effective and accurate when in flight. This enhanced access to flight controls proves even more essential when players are fully immersed in the exceptional flight experience delivered by VR-compatible games. The TWCS Throttle is the best way to enjoy a great number of actions at your fingertips.
