Thrustmaster Sol-R 1 Flightstick — Space Sim Joystick

Conquer the Stars. — Thrustmaster Sol-R 1 Flightstick

The Thrustmaster Sol-R 1 Flightstick is a purpose-built space and combat simulation joystick designed for pilots who demand maximum control authority across every mission. With 44 total assignable actions, 3 axes + 5 virtual axes powered by H.E.A.R.T. 16-bit Hall Effect magnetic precision, a removable ambidextrous grip for left- or right-handed use, 11 software-controlled RGB zones, a central throttle on the base, and full compatibility with the entire Thrustmaster ecosystem — the Sol-R 1 is the definitive flightstick for Star Citizen, Elite Dangerous, DCS World, and every space combat title on PC.

Why the Sol-R 1 Flightstick?

• 44 Total Assignable Actions — Ultimate Control Density: 21 action buttons on the grip + 23 on the base = 44 fully assignable actions in total. Grip controls include 2 triggers (1 dual-position trigger), 2 hat switches, 1 ministick, and 1 thumbwheel — everything you need for complex space and combat sim inputs without ever leaving the stick.

• H.E.A.R.T. 16-bit Hall Effect Magnetic Precision — 3 Real + 5 Virtual Axes: X, Y, and Z axes with H.E.A.R.T. Hall Effect AccuRate Technology at 16-bit precision (65,536 values per axis) — zero friction, zero wear, infinite lifespan. Plus 5 additional virtual axes via thumbwheel, throttle, and ministick for maximum configuration depth.

• Removable Ambidextrous Grip — Left & Right Hand: The Sol-R 1's grip detaches and repositions for either right-hand or left-hand use — interchangeable wrist rest and thumb rest included. Perfect for HOSAS (Hands On Stick And Stick) dual joystick setups or single-stick pilots who prefer left-handed configuration.

• Central Throttle on Base — HOTAS Without a Separate Unit: Built-in central throttle control on the base gives you integrated throttle management without needing a separate throttle unit — ideal for space combat and VTOL maneuvers where thrust changes are frequent and rapid.

• 11 Software-Controlled RGB Zones — Full Immersion: 11 independent RGB lighting zones across the flightstick body with full color control via Thrustmaster's TARGET software — dial in your ship's colors, faction livery, or cockpit ambiance for total sci-fi immersion.

• Iconic Science-Fiction Design: Inspired by the greatest science-fiction blockbusters — the Sol-R 1's visual design and aesthetic goes beyond standard joystick styling. Built to look as good on your desk as it performs in the cockpit.

• TARGET Software Compatible — Unlimited Macro Power (Free): Full compatibility with Thrustmaster's free TARGET (Thrustmaster Advanced pRogramming Graphical EdiTor) software — create complex macros, multi-axis assignments, conditional scripts, and profile saves for any space or combat title. Free to download.

• Thrustmaster Ecosystem Compatible: Sol-R 1 grip and base are compatible with the broader Thrustmaster ecosystem — pair with the Sol-R 6 Throttle, HOTAS Warthog Dual Throttle, TWCS Throttle, VIPER HOTAS Add-On Grip, F/A-18C Hornet Add-On Grip, T.Flight Rudder Pedals, and TPR Pendular Rudder to build the ultimate space sim cockpit.

• USB-C Detachable Cable — Clean Desk Setup: Detachable USB-C cable connects cleanly to PC with minimal cable management effort — unplug and store when not in use.

• 4 Stability Supports Included: Four adjustable stability supports on the base keep the Sol-R 1 locked to your desk at any angle — no slipping, no rocking during aggressive combat maneuvers.
