Excellent value. Works great.

This throttle quadrant has really impressed me. By default the throttles have detents along their axes that mimic the detents found in the actual Airbus A320 throttle quadrant. However what I really like is that if you're flying a non-Airbus plane then the detents can be deactivated. In addition the throttle quadrant has reverse thrust triggers that mimic those found in the real aircraft. Another bonus though is that these reverse triggers can very easily be 'locked out' to more accurately simulate aircraft that don't have reverse thrust capability; twin pistons for example.
Right out of the box the setup for MSFS2020 was extremely easy. When flying the A320 it was simply plug and play. It did take a bit of remapping when I wanted to fly other aircraft though but it was still relatively straightforward.
Overall, when you consider the price of other joysticks and throttles, the value you get with this combo is excellent.
I highly recommend it. I've been very pleased.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Trustmaster TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition

The TCA Quadrant Edition looks so real and I enjoy even just seeing it beside me on my desk. It did give me a feel and look when flying a two engines plane like B737 and A321. Microsoft Flight Simulator X can recognize both my old Logitech Attach 3 (11 buttons) and this TCA Quadrant Edition. Download the drivers from Trustmaster website is easy. It works both on my Windows 7 and Vista. I haven't tried Windows 10 yet because I am still not able to install my MFS-X on it. You need two editions if you want to fly a four engines aircraft like boeing 747. To enable the thrust reversal mechanism, customize your choice by selecting Throttle (decrease quickly) under Buttons/Keys / Joystick / Repeat, and not Control Axes / Reverse.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This was the second one with a defective #2 throttle, even after extensive calibration and trouble shooting I was unable to solve the problem so for now, I'll wait till Thrustmaster gets their quality control working.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
