While it may look like a regular gamepad, the Echo Aviation Controller<\/strong> offers an astonishing range of nuanced controls in a controller footprint, which allows for quick, effortless flight wherever you choose to take to the skies. It\u2019s also fully compatible with Microsoft\u00ae Flight Simulator\u2122<\/em> on PC, as well as other flight simulation software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Echo Aviation Controller <\/strong>requires no separate hardware, and combines pitch, roll, yaw, throttle, trim and core aircraft systems into one unit, offering total control over whichever aircraft you choose to fly. It features a precision analog Thumbstick with Hall Effect sensors for pitch and roll and provides smooth responsive movement, delivering full elevator and aileron input. The integrated four Throttle Levers and Trim Wheel are all independently assignable, accommodating both single and multi-engine aircraft. On the back of the controller lies a specialised Hall Effect Rudder Paddle System featuring paddles which move in opposition to accurately simulate rudder input, providing remarkably realistic control with no need for external pedals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When using the Echo Aviation Controller<\/strong>, flight simmers will have all essential flight controls within their hands without the need for complex keyboard mapping – something that can often snap pilots out of the immersion of their journey. Physical controls for landing gear, flaps and parking brake will be at their fingertips leaving them ready to soar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
