Thrustmaster TCA Yoke Boeing Edition

I absolutely adore this yoke. What drew me to this yoke was how Thrustmaster simulates the yoke being anchored to the floor of the cockpit by having the yoke extend out from the desk and move in a pendular motion. A small detail, but it really gives the sense of flying a big airliner.

FSProjects Airbus Sidestick
FSProjects Airbus Sidestick

A very realistic, built to order Airbus Sidestick from FSProjects. Originally purchased to work with my Thrustmaster AVA base, but also works with the Moza AB9. I ADORE this side stick and thank FSProjects for their contribution to the simming comminity.

Moza AB9
Moza AB9 Joystick Base

Thanks to Moza for providing me with an AB9 for use on the channel. I use it exclusively for flying Airbus, using the force feedback motors to replcate the resistance of the sprung mechanism of the real thing. A very versatile base!

Moza MTQ
Moza MTQ Throttle Quadrant

Thanks to Moza for sending these for use on the channel. We're currently making good of these on the streams. A versatile throttle unit which allows the levers to be swapped out between military, Boeing and Airbus.

Wingflex FCU Cube

Thanks to Wingflex for providing me with their FCU Cube for use on the channel. Controlling my Airbus using physical dials is a word apart from struggling with your mouse!

Logitech Radio Panels
Logitech Radio Panels

Getting slightly long in the tooth now, and requires SPAD.Next to work with the 8.33khz radio frequencies on VATSIM, but it is (sometimes) easier than using your mouse to change radio frequency. Could use a refresh though!

Tobii Eye Tracker 5

I love my Tobii Eye Tracker 5. It gives an amazing sense of immersion, especially when on the ground. The ability to quickly glance out of your window to check for traffic is something I wouldnt want to give up having now experienced it.

Moza MRP Rudder Pedals
Moza MRP Rudder Pedals

Thanks to Moza for sending their MRP rudder pedals out to review on the channel. These now replace my aging Logitech Flight Rudder Pedals and are a huge step up in terms of quality. The optional adjustable damper is a great touch too!

GoXLR Mini

I really wouldn't want to go live without this, this is how I control the audio for our live streams and videos. Each fader can have an audio source assigned to it, and what you hear on our streams it the mixed output. An amazing bit of kit. Looks snazzy too!

Pyle PDMIC58

I often get asked about my mic as people seem to like the quality. Not a particularly well known mic, but an absolute steal for the price. It does require a USB audio interface to connect to a PC, so that increases the overall cost, but it's a solid XLR dynamic mic.

Elgato Streamdeck

I held off on a Streamdeck for a while, insisting I didn't really need one, but now I have it, I wouldn't give it up. It helps me control so many things while I'm live streaming with a press of a button. I have the Mk.1, which is now discontinued, so linked below is the newer Mk.2.

Notable Mentions

It's not lost on me that I'm in a very fortunate position where some brands like to send me products to use on the channel, as such, there are products that I no longer use on a daily basis, but still recommend as I think they offer great value for their price point.

Thrustmaster AVA Base
Thrustmaster AVA Base

Even though this replaced in my setup by the Moza AB9, I still believe this is a fantastic stick that is very versatile, particularly when you consider it's less than half the price of the AB9.

Logitech Flight Rudder Pedals

Despite being recently replaced by the Moza MRP Rudder Pedals - I've come to believe that ANY rudder pedals are better than NO rudder pedals, and these offer a great bang-for-your-buck.

Thrustmaster TCA Airbus Throttle
Thrustmaster TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition w/ Add-Ons

This has been my throttle for years and it's served me very well indeed. We still use it occassionally on stream, swapping between my Moza MTQ and these.
