Notice THRUSTMASTER T.16000M

« ovide resolutions in the neighborhood of only one million values (1024 x 1024 values). - A magnet: no friction, for unlimited precision and incredible responsiveness. - Coil spring on stick (2.8mm): for firm, linear and ultra-fluid tension. BACKLIGHTING For even greater precision, there is no dead zone in the central position of the T-16000M's stick. To symbolize this, the center is backlit in green as soon as you move the stick (even very slightly); the backlighting switches off after 3 seconds of inactivity, once you have brought the stick back to dead center. THROTTLE Your joystick features a throttle (5), which you can use to easily control your acceleration in games. RUDDER FUNCTION Your joystick features a rudder function (4), which in an airplane corresponds to the pedals used by the pilot to move the rudder, thereby allowing the plane to pivot 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 the stick to the left or right. MULTIDIRECTIONAL "POINT OF VIEW" HAT SWITCH Your joystick features a "Point of View" hat switch (2) which, as its name indicates, 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, and also 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.). 2/12 AMBIDEXTROUS SYSTEM Your T-16000M joystick has the advantage of being fully ambidextrous, allowing it to perfectly adapt to all players, whether they are right-handed or left-handed.

B) Turn the hand rest 180°. C) Completely tighten the screw on the hand rest again (now located on the right). Note: Carry out this procedure in reverse to return to right-handed mode. 6/12 ADJUSTING THE THUMB REST FOR RIGHT- OR LEFT-HANDED MODE By default, the stick's thumb rest is configured in RIGHT-HANDED MODE.
