Flight Sticks and HOTAS for Every Virtual Pilot

There’s no single perfect flight sim joystick. It all comes down to what you fly and how you like to fly it. That’s why we stock a variety of HOTAS systems and standalone sticks to suit casual flyers, seasoned sim pilots and combat sim enthusiasts.

You’ll find modular setups, throttle control units, twist rudder inputs and more from trusted names like Thrustmaster and Moza. We’ve tested them ourselves, so we only recommend gear that holds up in real sim hours, not just on paper.

HOTAS Setups With Real-World Layouts

A well-designed HOTAS lets you fly without hunting for keyboard shortcuts. The throttle and stick mimic real aircraft controls, putting trim, flaps, weapon toggles and comms all within reach. That muscle memory makes all the difference when your flight gets busy.

For civilian and combat aviation sim fans alike, HOTAS setups deliver immersion and control without overcomplicating the interface. Pair yours with rudder pedals or a sim cockpit for even more depth, and you’ll be flying with purpose, not just playing a game.

At Player1 Sim Gear, we know flight sim gear because we use it ourselves. Tell us what you fly and what you’re hoping to get from your setup, and we’ll point you toward gear that makes sense. No hard sell, just honest advice based on what actually works.
