The Captain's Sidestick, for Your Sim
The MOZA Airbus MA3F is an officially licensed recreation of the left-hand sidestick used from the Airbus captain's seat. It pairs the classic Airbus grip shape and button layout with a removable five-way hat switch, two mappable side buttons and a lightweight, rigid composite grip rated to a 30 kg static load.
It locks onto a MOZA AB9 or AB6 force feedback base through a 5-pin aviation connector and an aluminium locking ring, and you map all nine inputs in MOZA Cockpit. If you fly the A320 family or the A350 from the left seat, this is the grip that makes your desk feel like the flight deck.
Licensed by Airbus, built for the left seat
MOZA took the shape, contours and button layout of the classic Airbus captain's sidestick, then added a removable hat switch and full button mapping so it works across every aircraft you fly.
Genuine Airbus design details
Officially licensed by Airbus, the MA3F brings authentic Airbus design details to your flight setup, from the grip shape to the button layout.
Common functions within reach
Two easy-to-reach buttons on the left side of the grip can be mapped to the functions you use most for each aircraft and flight scenario.
The shape your hand expects
The distinctive shape, grip contours and button layout of the Airbus captain's sidestick, for a comfortable, natural feel on long sectors.
Extra controls, or the clean Airbus look
Pop the hat switch cap off with the included tool and fit the magnetic cover for a more authentic Airbus appearance, or keep the hat on for extra mappable controls.
Five controls, nine inputs
Five physical controls give you nine button inputs, so you can set the stick up to suit each aircraft and simulator profile.
Rated to a 30 kg static load
A lightweight, high-strength composite grip with good rigidity, wear resistance and durability. MOZA's lab rates it to withstand a static load of up to 30 kg.
Made for MOZA force feedback
A 5-pin aviation connector fits the MA3F to MOZA's AB9 and AB6 force feedback flight bases, held firm by an aluminium locking ring and a top-mounted locking screw.
Map it your way in MOZA Cockpit
Once the MA3F is connected through a compatible MOZA base, MOZA Cockpit shows the grip's status and lets you set up every input alongside your base's force feedback.

- Check the grip's device status at a glance
- Map all nine button inputs to the functions you want
- Manage simulator profiles for different aircraft
- Tune your MOZA base's force feedback in the same app

Which bases does it fit?
The MA3F is a grip only. MOZA lists it for its AB6 and AB9 force feedback flight bases, connected through a 5-pin aviation connector, and it is used on PC.
| Flight base | Connection | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| MOZA AB9 Active Force Feedback Base | 5-pin aviation connector | MOZA's stronger flight base. Mount it with the MOZA Flight Base Table Clamp or a cockpit. |
| MOZA AB6 force feedback base, as in the MOZA AB6 Flight Simulator Bundle | 5-pin aviation connector | The bundle comes with the MHG flightstick, so the MA3F adds an Airbus grip you can swap to. |
| Other brands' flight bases | Not listed by MOZA | MOZA only lists AB6 and AB9 support. Ask us before ordering for any other base. |
