GETTING TO KNOW YOUR JOYSTICK

EXCLUSIVE PRECISION TECHNOLOGY

H.E.A.R.T: HallEffect AccuRate Technology

Your TCA Sidestick X Airbus Edition joystick features high-precision technology, with:

−3D (Hall effect) magnetic sensors on the stick;

−a magnet: no friction, for unlimited precision and incredible responsiveness that will last;

−a coil spring on the stick (2.8 mm): for firm, linear and ultra-fluid tension.

THROTTLE

Your joystick features a throttle (6), which you can use to easily control your aircraft’s engine

thrust.

A virtual button only available on PC (number 17 in the PC mapping) is enabled on the first

20 percent of the throttle’s travel, in order to activate the thrust reversers.

5/35

RUDDER FUNCTION

Your joystick features a rudder function (10). In an airplane, the pilot manipulates the rudder

to pivot the plane around its vertical axis (making the plane turn to the left or to the right).

This rudder function is available on your joystick by rotating (i.e. twisting) the stick to the left

or right.

6/35

LOCKING/UNLOCKING THE RUDDER FUNCTION

The rudder function can be disabled using the lock button on the back of the joystick handle.

Press this button in order to lock the rudder’s axis.

Bring this button back into the upper position to unlock the rudder’s axis.

7/35

MULTIDIRECTIONAL “POINT OF VIEW” HAT SWITCH

Your joystick features a “Point of View” hat switch (3) which allows you to instantly view

everything that is going on around your aircraft (in games where this feature is enabled). To

use this feature, simply go into your game’s setup menu, and program the different views

(rear view, view to the left, view to the right, external views) onto the directions of the “Point

of View” hat switch.

If you wish, you can also reserve the “Point of View” hat switch for other uses instead (firing,

etc.).

MICROPHONE CONNECTOR FOR GAMING HEADSET

Your joystick features a 1/8” / 3.5 mm mini-jack microphone connector (15)allowing for the

use of a gaming headset with a built-in microphone for a more immersive experience.

8/35

AMBIDEXTROUS SYSTEM AND ADJUSTING THE MODULES

Your TCA Sidestick X Airbus Edition joystick has the advantage of being ambidextrous,

allowing it to perfectly adapt to all players, whether they are right-handed or left-handed.

By default, the joystick is configured in pilot mode. Four configurations are possible:

Pilot

Copilot

Center stick

To modify the configuration of your joystick:

1. Using a small screwdriver, carefully unscrew and remove the two screws for each

button module.

2. Change the modules according to your preferred configuration.

3. Put the screws back in and completely retighten them.

9/35

CONFIGURING THE STICK IN LEFT-HANDED (PILOT) MODE

To identify the joystick as being in LEFT-HANDED (PILOT) mode, set the selector switch (7)

located under the joystick’s base to LEFT HANDED — PILOT before connecting the joystick.

Your product will then be recognized as a TCA Sidestick X Pilot.

CONFIGURING THE STICK IN RIGHT-HANDED (COPILOT) MODE

To identify the joystick as being in RIGHT-HANDED (COPILOT) mode, set the selector

switch (7) located under the joystick’s base to RIGHT HANDED — COPILOT before

connecting the joystick.

Your product will then be recognized as a TCA Sidestick X Copilot.
