The Thrustmaster TCA Quadrant Add-On Airbus Edition is a modular expansion kit engineered to complement the TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition, replicating the secondary flight controls of the Airbus A320neo.
This add-on integrates essential commercial aviation functions, including speed brake management, flap control, landing gear actuation, and parking brake engagement. Utilizing Thrustmaster’s H.E.A.R.T (HallEffect AccuRate Technology), the modules provide high-resolution magnetic sensing for long-term mechanical reliability on both PC and Xbox platforms.
Flight Control Modules & Levers
- Speed Brake Lever: Features a realistic mechanical travel path for precise drag and lift management during descent and landing.
- Flaps Lever: Equipped with mechanical detents to replicate the official Airbus flap positions (0, 1, 2, 3, and FULL).
- Landing Gear Control: Authentic push/pull lever mechanism with visual status indicator compatibility in-sim.
- Parking Brake: Dedicated mechanical toggle for ground operations and gate departure sequences.
Sensor Technology & Build
- Magnetic Sensors: H.E.A.R.T (HallEffect AccuRate Technology) delivers 16-bit resolution on the main axes for precision that does not degrade over time.
- Autobrake Selector: Includes a functional rotary knob for selecting "Low," "Medium," or "Max" autobrake settings.
- Trim Wheel Compatibility: Designed to facilitate manual pitch trim adjustments when integrated into the full TCA ecosystem.
- Modular Attachment: Includes industrial attachment connectors to physically secure the modules to the left and right sides of the main TCA Quadrant.
Ecosystem & Compatibility
- Platform Support: Native compatibility with Windows 10/11 PC and Xbox Series X|S (requires connection via the TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition).
- Microsoft Flight Simulator: Features automatic "Plug & Play" mapping for the A320neo and other Airbus-family aircraft.
- Firmware: Firmware-updatable via the Thrustmaster support portal to ensure ongoing compatibility with simulation updates.
- PC Software: Fully compatible with T.A.R.G.E.T (Thrustmaster Advanced pRogramming Graphical EdiTor) for advanced axis calibration.
