Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog Dual Throttle
Recreate the controls of a real military aircraft with the Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog Dual Throttle. Officially licensed by the U.S. Air Force, this dual throttle controller is a replica of the controls found in the A-10C attack aircraft. Designed for flight simulation enthusiasts, it combines high-precision magnetic technology, two independent throttle levers and a comprehensive control panel. Its robust construction and numerous programmable functions deliver a realistic flight simulation experience on PC.
High-Precision H.E.A.R.T. Magnetic Technology
H.E.A.R.T. (HallEffect AccuRate Technology) uses Hall effect magnetic sensors to measure the movements of both throttle levers without mechanical contact at the sensor level. This design ensures consistent precision while minimizing wear on the sensing components.
- 3D Hall effect magnetic sensors on both throttle levers.
- 14-bit resolution per throttle, providing 16,384 position values.
- Precise, progressive movement detection.
- Contactless sensor technology ensures long-lasting precision.
- USB connection with updatable firmware.
Two Independent Throttle Levers for Realistic Control
The dual throttle system allows independent control of two engines, just like in a real military aircraft. A locking mechanism also allows both levers to be coupled for simultaneous operation.
- Two throttle levers that can be operated independently or together.
- Locking system allows the throttle levers to be coupled.
- Manual adjustment of throttle resistance using a friction wheel.
- Smooth, progressive resistance for precise control.
- Integrated metal hand rest.
- IDLE detents with a Pull & Push mechanism.
- Realistic AFTERBURNER detent that can be disabled.
- Buttons and switches provide mechanical resistance inspired by military aviation controls.
Integrated Throttle Controls
Controls located directly on the throttle levers allow pilots to perform numerous actions without removing their hands, improving responsiveness and immersion during flight.
- 17 programmable action buttons.
- Two-axis mini-joystick with a 3D magnetic sensor and push-button function.
- 8-way Point of View (POV) control.
- Hat switches for managing various flight functions.
- Multi-position switches inspired by A-10C aircraft controls.
Integrated Control Panel
The control panel replicates the layout of several functions found in the A-10C cockpit. Its metal switches and buttons with realistic resistance contribute to a more immersive simulation experience.
- 15 additional action buttons.
- Integrated TRIM wheel.
- Two- or three-position metal switches.
- 5 programmable LED indicators.
- Backlit controls for improved visibility in low-light conditions.
- Weighted base provides excellent stability.
T.A.R.G.E.T. Programming Software
Thrustmaster T.A.R.G.E.T. (Thrustmaster Advanced pRogramming Graphical EdiTor) software allows users to customize controls and create configurations tailored to different flight simulators.
- Programming of buttons, axes and switches.
- Creation of customized control profiles.
- Ability to combine multiple compatible Thrustmaster peripherals into a single virtual controller.
- Preset configurations available for selected flight simulators.
- Free downloadable software for PC.
