GETTING TO KNOW YOUR JOYSTICK

Adjustable handle resistance

Depending on your gaming style, you may prefer to have an ultra-sensitive joystick, which

responds to the slightest movement, or a firmer joystick, which offers a certain resistance

when you use it.

Your joystick’s handle resistance is adjustable, in order to adapt to all gamers. To adjust it,

use the handle resistance adjustment dial (9) located under your joystick’s base.

Throttle

The throttle is in the form of a thumb slider (6), easily accessible with your left hand resting

on the base of your joystick.

Rudder function

Your joystick features a rudder function, which in a plane corresponds to the pedals used by

the pilot to turn the steering, allowing the plane to pivot around its vertical axis (therefore

making the plane turn left or right). This rudder function is accessible on your joystick by

rotating the handle to the left or right.

If you are not using the rudder function in your games (or if you have programmed it onto

action buttons), you can disable handle rotation thanks to the locking screw (5) located on

the handle’s base.

Use a flat head screwdriver to change the screw’s position and thus lock/unlock the rudder

function.

Multidirectional “Point Of View” hat-switch

Your joystick features a “Point Of View” hat-switch (3) which, as its name indicates, allows

you (in games which permit) to instantly view everything that’s going on around your plane.

To do so, simply go to your game’s configuration menu and program the different views (rear

view, left view, right view, and also external views) onto the directions of the “Point Of View”

hat-switch.

Of course, you can also use the “Point Of View” hat-switch for other functions instead (firing,

etc.).

7/12

2 PROGRAMMING MODES

The PRESET button (8) and LED (7) allow you to view the type of programming selected:

AUTOMATIC (preprogrammed) or MANUAL (programmed by yourself).

A single press of this button will allow you to switch from one programming mode to the

other, even during the course of a game.

• AUTOMATIC PRESET: RED LED

This represents the default programming: the axes, positions of the buttons and of the hat-

switch are preprogrammed.

PLEASE REFER TO THE “AUTOMATIC PRESET” CONFIGURATION DIAGRAMS.

• MANUAL PRESET: GREEN LED

This represents your own person programming:

- The buttons, axes and the hat-switch can be switched between themselves.

- You can modify the programming to suit your taste and whenever you like.

- Programming is automatically saved in your joystick (even when it is disconnected).

- When your “MANUAL PRESET” is blank, it is identical to the “AUTOMATIC PRESET”.

PROGRAMMING / MAPPING

You can program your joystick using the MAPPING button.

Attention: This button is not located in the same position on PC and PS3 (please refer to

the diagrams):

- On PC: Directly press the button in question.

- On PS3: Simultaneously press START (ST) + SELECT (SE).

• Examples of possible applications:

- Switching the positions of buttons.

- Switching axes between themselves = directions of the handle, of the throttle or of the

rudder (In this case, you must map the 2 directions of the first axis to those of the

second.)

- Switching the 2 directions of the same axis.

- Switching buttons with a direction of an axis or of the hat-switch.

• Exception:

On PlayStation®3, the START (ST) and SELECT (SE) buttons also correspond to the

MAPPING button (and therefore may not be reprogrammed).

TROUBLESHOOTING AND WARNING

• My joystick doesn’t function correctly or appears to be improperly calibrated:

- Switch off your computer or your console, disconnect your joystick, reconnect your joystick

and then re-launch your game.

- When connecting your joystick: Leave the handle, rudder and throttle centered and do not

move them (to avoid any calibration problems).

97143, 35571 Chantepie, France (hereinafter “Guillemot”) warrants to the consumer that this

Thrustmaster product shall be free from defects in materials and workmanship, for a warranty period

which corresponds to the time limit to bring an action for conformity with respect to this product. In the

countries of the European Union, this corresponds to a period of two (2) years from delivery of the

Thrustmaster product. In other countries, the warranty period corresponds to the time limit to bring an

action for conformity with respect to the Thrustmaster product according to applicable laws of the country

in which the consumer was domiciled on the date of purchase of the Thrustmaster product (if no such

action exists in the corresponding country, then the warranty period shall be one (1) year from the original

date of purchase of the Thrustmaster product).

Notwithstanding the above, rechargeable batteries are covered by a warranty period of six (6) months

from the date of original purchase.

Should the product appear to be defective during the warranty period, immediately contact Technical

Support, who will indicate the procedure to follow. If the defect is confirmed, the product must be returned

be either replaced or returned to working order. If, during the warranty period, the Thrustmaster product is

subject to such reconditioning, any period of at least seven (7) days during which the product is out of use

shall be added to the remaining warranty period (this period runs from the date of the consumer’s request

for intervention or from the date on which the product in question is made available for reconditioning, if

the date on which the product is made available for reconditioning is subsequent to the date of the

request for intervention). If permitted under applicable law, the full liability of Guillemot and its subsidiaries

(including for consequential damages) is limited to the return to working order or the replacement of the

Thrustmaster product. If permitted under applicable law, Guillemot disclaims all warranties of

merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.

This warranty is nontransferable.

The consumer’s legal rights with respect to laws applicable to the sale of consumer goods in his or her

country are not affected by this warranty.

Additional warranty provisions

During the warranty period, Guillemot shall not provide, in principle, any spare parts, as Technical Support

is the only party authorized to open and/or recondition any Thrustmaster product (with the exception of

any reconditioning procedures which Technical Support may request that the consumer carry out, by way

of written instructions – for example, due to the simplicity and the lack of confidentiality of the

reconditioning process – and by providing the consumer with the required spare part(s), where

applicable).

Given its innovation cycles and in order to protect its know-how and trade secrets, Guillemot shall not

provide, in principle, any reconditioning notification or spare parts for any Thrustmaster product whose

warranty period has expired.

In the United States of America and in Canada, this warranty is limited to the product’s internal

mechanism and external housing. In no event shall Guillemot or its affiliates be held liable to any third

party for any consequential or incidental damages resulting from the breach of any express or implied

warranties. Some States/Provinces do not allow limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts or

exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, so the above limitations or

exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have

other rights which vary from State to State or Province to Province.

A LA DECOUVERTE DE VOTRE JOYSTICK

Résistance du manche ajustable

Selon votre façon de jouer, vous voudrez un joystick ultra-sensible, qui réponde à la moindre

impulsion, ou au contraire un joystick plus dur, qui présente une certaine résistance lorsque

vous le manipulez.

La résistance du manche de votre Joystick est ajustable pour s’adapter à tous les joueurs.

Utilisez pour cela la molette de réglage de la résistance (9) située sous la base de votre

joystick.

Manette des gaz

La manette des gaz est représentée sous la forme d’une molette (6), facilement accessible

avec la main gauche reposant sur la base de votre Joystick.

Fonction Palonnier

Votre Joystick dispose d’une fonction palonnier, qui correspond dans un avion aux pédales

actionnées par le pilote pour faire braquer la gouverne de direction, qui permet de faire

pivoter l’avion autour de son axe vertical (entraînant ainsi un virage de l’avion vers la gauche

ou la droite). Cette fonction palonnier est accessible sur votre joystick par rotation du

manche vers la gauche ou la droite.

Si vous n’utilisez pas la fonction palonnier dans vos jeux (ou que vous l’avez programmée

sur des boutons d’action), vous pouvez désactiver la rotation du manche grâce à la vis de

blocage (5) située à la base du manche.

Utilisez un tournevis à tête plate pour modifier sa position et ainsi verrouiller/déverrouiller la

fonction palonnier.

Croix Multidirectionnelle « Point de vue »

Votre Joystick est doté d’une Croix Point de vue (3) qui, comme son nom l’indique, vous

permettra (dans les jeux le permettant) de surveiller instantanément tout ce qui se passe

autour de votre avion. Il vous suffit pour cela, depuis le menu de configuration de votre jeu,

de programmer les différentes vues (vue arrière, vue sur la gauche, vue sur la droite, mais

aussi vues externes) sur les directions de la croix Point de vue.

Vous pouvez bien entendu réserver la Croix Point de vue à d’autres utilisations (tir, etc.).

7/12

2 MODES DE PROGRAMMATION

Le bouton PRESET (8) et la Led Lumineuse (7) vous permettent de visualiser le type de

programmation choisi : AUTOMATIQUE (préprogrammé) ou MANUEL (programmé par

vous-même).

Une simple pression sur ce bouton vous permettra (même en cours de jeu) de basculer

d’une programmation à l’autre.

• PRESET AUTOMATIQUE : Led ROUGE

Il s’agit ici de la programmation par défaut : les axes, la position des boutons et de la croix

sont préprogrammés

REPORTEZ-VOUS AUX SCHEMAS « CONFIGURATION DU PRESET AUTOMATIQUE ».

• PRESET MANUEL : Led VERTE

Il s’agit ici de vos programmations personnelles :

- Les boutons, les axes et la croix peuvent être inversés entre eux.

- Vous pouvez modifier à votre convenance et à volonté ces programmations.

- Elles sont automatiquement sauvegardées à l’intérieur de votre Joystick (même

débranché).

- Lorsque que votre «PRESET MANUEL» est vierge, il est alors identique au «PRESET

AUTOMATIQUE».

PROGRAMMATION / MAPPING

Vos programmations s’effectuent à l’aide du bouton MAPPING.

Attention : Sur PC ou sur PS3, ce bouton n’a pas le même emplacement

(reportez vous aux schémas) :

- Sur PC : appuyez directement sur le bouton concerné

- Sur PS3 : appuyez simultanément sur START (ST) + SELECT (SE)

• Exemples d’applications possibles :

- Inverser la position des boutons

- Inverser des axes entre eux = directions du manche, de la manette des gaz ou du

palonnier (Dans ce cas, vous devez basculer les 2 directions du 1er

axe vers le

second.)

- Inverser les 2 directions du même axe

- Inverser des boutons avec la direction d’un axe ou de la croix

• Exception :

Sur PlayStation®3, les boutons START(ST) et SELECT(SE) correspondent également au

bouton MAPPING (et ne peuvent donc pas être reprogrammés)
