ThrustMaster T.Flight Rudder Pedals

The pedal set for flight simulators, released by Thrustmaster in 2016, continues to hold its place as one of the most affordable solutions for simulator control. A key design feature is the proprietary S.M.A.R.T rail system, based on four industrial-grade aluminum guides: the pedals slide horizontally rather than pivoting on an axis, providing smooth and predictable movement.

The rudder axis is self-centering, with a resolution of 1024 values and an extended range — ample for precise maneuvers in both civilian and military aviation. The two brakes operate independently, like in a real aircraft, allowing for tighter turns. The ThrustMaster T.Flight Rudder Pedals are equipped with removable heel rests — with them, the foot is fully supported, without them, control shifts to the ball of the foot, which some sim pilots find more comfortable. Connection is possible in two ways: via USB-A to a PC or via a proprietary RJ12 connector directly to compatible Thrustmaster joysticks. On a PC, the pedals are compatible with any joystick, and through the T.A.R.G.E.T software, you can adjust dead zones, program axes, and combine multiple Thrustmaster devices into a single profile.
