Description
A stick on one side, a throttle on the other
HOTAS means hands on throttle and stick, and the whole point of it is that both hands stay where they belong. That only works if the stick and the throttle are bolted down at the right height and angle, which is what this pair of mounts does for an FS3 wheel stand.
Two black powder-coated mounting plates, one for each side, each adjustable for tilt and position. The pair weighs 5.72kg, which tells you these are plates rather than brackets.
Key features
- Two mounting plates, left and right
- Adjustable tilt and position on both
- Black powder-coated finish
- Direct fitment to the FS3 wheel stand
- Fits the major HOTAS brands
- 5-year manufacturer warranty
What it fits
The Trak Racer FS3 wheel stand. These plates are cut to bolt directly to that frame, which is why there is no adapter in the box and no drilling in the instructions.
The wheel stand itself is not part of this purchase. If you do not own one yet, the FS3 V2 Flight Simulator Stand already includes a left and right pair, so buying the stand and these mounts together would leave you with two sets.
Which controls they take
These take controls from Thrustmaster, Logitech, Honeycomb Aeronautical, Virpil, VKB, Winwing, VirtualFly, Hori and Turtle Beach. That covers the Thrustmaster Warthog stick and dual throttles, the T.16000M and TCA Airbus range, Logitech's X52 and X56, the Honeycomb Alpha and Bravo, Virpil's MongoosT-50, the VKB Gunfighter III and Winwing's J2 and T2 bases.
Both plates adjust for tilt as well as position, so a side stick can be angled inboard the way it sits in a real cockpit rather than standing vertical. Our flight simulator controls range covers the controls themselves.
Two plates, two jobs
The usual layout is a stick on the right and a throttle on the left, but nothing about the mounts enforces that. Left handed pilots swap them, helicopter setups run a collective style throttle on the left, and a dual stick layout works if that is what you fly.
The finish is black powder coat, which matters on a part that lives under your hand. Our hardware mounts range covers the rest of the Trak Racer mounting hardware. Our flight simulator cockpits pages cover the seated cockpits if you would rather fly from a fixed frame.
Our expert take
"Get the height right before you worry about the angle. A throttle that sits too high makes you lift your elbow to reach it, and half an hour into a long haul that is the thing you notice, not the twenty degrees of tilt you spent an evening perfecting."
- Blake Sterling, Founder & CEO, Gamer Gear Direct
Frequently asked questions
Is the wheel stand included?
No. This is the pair of mounting plates only, for fitting to an FS3 wheel stand you already own.
What does it fit?
The Trak Racer FS3 wheel stand, by direct fitment. If your rig is not an FS3, check with us before ordering.
Are the flight controls included?
No. The plates are pre-drilled for the major HOTAS brands, and the stick, throttle or quadrant is a separate purchase.
Can I mount the stick on either side?
Yes. The plates are a left and right pair and nothing forces a particular layout, so a left handed or dual stick setup works.
