Bought MS Flight Sim 2020 for $140 CDN, wow. Want a joystick supported in MS Flight Sim. I read the Thrustmaster 4X is good, but I heard even that stick doesn't show up as a pic (fully supported) in the flight Sim. Anyone have comments or suggestions for a good stick that is fully supported? I don't want pedals, just the stick . Separate throttle lever like the 4X is ok. Thanks.

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 13 years?
I looked at the Warthog. Base is a bit complicated for me plus they want about $400 CDN for it. Went with the T.Flight Hotas One, the first one on Ghot's link. Setup was a breeze in Windows 11 and the pic of the stick shows up in MS Flight Sim controls, so fully supported. Passed taxiing training. Now if I can only figure out how to take off and land I will be a happy camper. Graphics quite amazing. So many planes, airports. Good stuff Microsoft.

Not sure if this is a hardware question or a gaming question, but I'll continue here because it relates to my nice new T.Flight Hotas One. Is there a way in game that I can print out the mapping of the game controls and my Hotas One? I don't mean what the keyboard keys do, I mean what my mapped Hotas One mappings do . There should be a way in game to print out a sheet of this info, but I don't see it.Can't find it on tthe internet so far. Thanks guys.

take a screenshot (windows + shift+s) and you will have your mapping of your joystick then print on your printer or eb shortcuts on screen, it's up to you..!!!
