Description
Take Full Control of Your Airbus — Thrustmaster TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition
The Thrustmaster TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition is an ergonomic replica throttle quadrant inspired directly by the iconic Airbus commercial aircraft throttle controls. Designed to pair seamlessly with the TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition (sold separately), it brings authentic Airbus A320 throttle kinematics and flight sensations to your PC flight simulation setup — from the stepped detents of takeoff and climb to the full thrust reverser for landing. Built with Thrustmaster's H.E.A.R.T contactless magnetic technology for unlimited lifespan and optimal precision.
Note: This listing is for the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition standalone. Sidestick sold separately.
Why the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition?
-
Authentic Airbus A320 Throttle Replica: Inspired directly by the iconic throttle quadrant of Airbus commercial airliners — same look, same feel, same control kinematics as the real aircraft.
-
H.E.A.R.T HallEffect AccuRate Technology: Contactless magnetic sensors with 14-bit resolution — no potentiometers, no wear, no drift, unlimited lifespan on both thrust lever axes.
-
2 Independent Dual Thrust Levers: Two separate, individually controlled thrust levers — move together or independently for realistic engine management on single or multi-engine aircraft.
-
Authentic Stepped Detents (IDLE / CLIMB / FLEX / TO-GA): Mechanical detents replicate the exact feel of advancing the throttle through each power phase of an Airbus flight.
-
Adjustable Detents: Mechanical selectors let you disable detents and switch to linear axis mode — allowing realistic piloting of any aircraft type, not just airliners.
-
Universal Thrust Reverser: Fully functional built-in thrust reverser mechanism — works on airliners, light aircraft, and transport planes for controlled landings.
-
2 Engine Master Selector Switches: Realistic Airbus-style selector switches for engine start and shutdown procedures.
-
16 Buttons Total: 8 physical action buttons + 8 virtual buttons (4 per axis) — comprehensive control coverage for all major flight sims.
-
Adjustable Tensioning Screw: Tune the resistance of the throttle levers under the unit — customise the feel for different aircraft or personal preference.
-
4-Engine A380 Support: Link two TCA Quadrant units together (second unit sold separately) for Airbus A380-style 4-engine setups with 4 thrust levers.
-
Ecosystem Compatible: Pairs with TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition, TCA Sidestick X Airbus Edition, TFRP Rudder Pedals, and TPR Pendular Rudder.
-
TARGET Software Compatible: Build and share advanced custom profiles with Thrustmaster's free T.A.R.G.E.T software.
