Thrustmaster AVA Base

Discover the AVA base — a revolutionary leap forward for owners of the iconic HOTAS Warthog. Take a step up from the fixed configuration of the HOTAS magnetic base, to an infinity of settings for the joystick’s axes with the new modular AVA base. Carefully designed to meet your needs and preferences, AVA allows for a wide range of customization options.

A WORLD OF FLIGHT CONFIGURATIONS

Create your ideal configuration from a multitude of adjustment possibilities offered by the various interchangeable elements of the AVA base: the axis curve, via cams; the resistance, via springs; the travel, via different deflection mask sizes; and the damping, via a damper.

THE ART OF ADJUSTMENT, MADE SIMPLE

The AVA base’s design has been created to make it quicker and easier to modify the settings of the internal elements. Make the final adjustments without disassembling the base, thanks to “on-the-fly” accessibility allowing you to adjust the stick’s resistance.

VERSATILITY IN THE SKIES

The AVA base’s versatility makes it compatible with all types of aviation, offering a limitless variety of configurations to suit all profiles. Whether you’re a fighter aircraft pilot looking for firm joystick tensioning, an airliner captain, an intergalactic fleet admiral or a helicopter pilot maneuvering with subtlety and precision, AVA will meet all of your requirements.

SUPERIOR PILOTING PERFORMANCE

Enjoy optimal precision and center point behavior thanks to the combination of two cutting-edge technologies. First off, by way of integration of two AXY (Accurate X&Y) sensors, allowing for precise and independent adjustment of the center point, progressiveness and resistance. Secondly, via proprietary H.E.A.R.T magnetic technology, ensuring maximum precision.

THE FUTURE OF FLIGHT SIMULATION

Explore the range of possible configurations of the scalable AVA base, thanks to its vast ecosystem of current and future accessories (additional grips, extensions, cams, springs, dampers, cyclical brake…).
