Product information

The HOTAS WARTHOG USB dual-throttle joystick is the result of an intense collaboration between Thrustmaster's development teams and members of the "simmer" community. Exchanges and studies were carried out constantly throughout the product's development phase, in order to create a joystick which meets the most specific and precise requirements of the experts. The result is the HOTAS WARTHOG: a replica set of the joystick, dual throttle system and dual throttle control panel of the U.S. Air Force A-10C attack aircraft. Weighing in at more than 14 lbs and using metal for the joystick, throttle handles, and bases, the HOTAS WARTHOG joystick is physically imposing. When you take into account the 55 fully programmable action buttons and 2 four-direction hat switches, each with a built-in push button (the first joystick in the world to incorporate such a feature), it becomes clear that the HOTAS WARTHOG is in a class of its own.

Thrustmaster Hotas Warthog Joystick

  • Weighing in at more than 14 lbs and using metal for the joystick, throttle handles, and bases, the HOTAS WARTHOG joystick is physically imposing. When you take into account the 55 fully programmable action buttons and 2 four-direction hat switches, each with a built-in push button (the first joystick in the world to incorporate such a feature), it becomes clear that the HOTAS WARTHOG is in a class of its own.

Pull and Push Throttle System with Disengageable Afterburner

  • The throttle component has also been very carefully designed, with a dual throttle system allowing for independent control of 2 motors: a locking system lets the user either attaches the 2 throttles together, or else keeps them independent of one another. The magnetic sensor technology used for the throttles (14-bit resolution, with 16384 values on each throttle) provides unrivaled precision. Switching to the Idle and Afterburner detents is carried out via a Pull and Push system, for even greater realism. The Afterburner detent is disengageable, allowing users to perfectly adapt the throttle control to the type of airplane they are piloting. The throttles feature a total of 17 action buttons, a "Point Of View" hat and a "mouse hat / slew control".

The Most Precise and Feature-Filled Joystick You Can Get

  • The joystick features 19 action buttons, along with a "Point Of View" hat. It provides extreme precision, thanks to the H.E.A.R.T HallEffect AccuRate Technology magnetic sensor system it employs: 16-bit precision (65536 x 65536 values), with no gimbals (cardan joints). What's more, pressing on the joystick's buttons and triggers requires pressure identical to that required in an actual airplane – a true first in the world of joysticks. Particular attention has been paid to freedom of use for simmers, with the joystick's handle being detachable, and its base being detachable as well (allowing you to install the joystick in a cockpit).

Control Panel with 5 Programmable LEDs

  • The product's final mechanical component, the control panel, provides an extensive number and variety of controls. It includes a friction wheel, allowing users to manually adjust the resistance of the throttles according to their own taste. It also features backlighting for functions, which users will certainly appreciate for night flights; the 5 programmable LEDs are also a plus for use in dark or low-light conditions. The base includes a "trim wheel" and 15 action buttons, including numerous push buttons with resistance identical to that on a real airplane and industrial metal switches (2 or 3 positions) with highly realistic pressure.

Thrusmaster Hotas Warthog

After using the WH combo for a couple of months on msfs2020 ( Helicopters), I am overall impressed with them. All metal certainly feels good and looks great. A couple of niggly issues I have experienced with the WH would be 'sticking' at a certain point on the joystick and not being able to assign a few of the switches on the control box. Switches can be fixed by simply downloading the software. Unfortunately cyclic freeze can not be so easily fixed but it is possible. The centrering spring pressure is quite strong but again some mods out there for this also. For the price point, I would of expected the minor internal fault to be rectified by better manufacturing. Overall a very good product. I gave it a 4 out of 5. As usual, I received friendly customer service and fast delivery times from the staff at Pagnian.

Amazing Service

Bought the Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog recently and have nothing but praise to say about the product, everything advertised was delivered in a very timely manner (4 days from a Friday night purchase online) to Adelaide, SA. First time i have used PAGNIAN ADVANCED SIMULATIONS and will be using again for all my flight and sim needs. Amazing company.

What a setup

Purchased this as it was priced at a level that is not overbearing. Mapping some controls was difficult and still is challenging when you want to add something obscure, outside of the mainstream controls. Now have a layout for C172 on X-Plane and MSFS 2020. As I am a beginner, I have mapped what I think is necessary to take off and land somewhere, more will be added in the coming weeks. The stick is somewhat firmer than I thought it would be so, working through that as well. Fantastic equipment, great build quality and once you know how to map the controls, virtually all is achievable. Fantastic.
