Thrustmaster TCA Quadrant Add-On Airbus Edition | Licensed
Authentic Airbus Flight Controls: Designed to mirror the physical layout and resistance of the real Airbus A320neo family controls, this add-on brings 15 iconic functions directly to your desk. The left module features the Speed Brake lever, which allows you to apply the exact amount of aerodynamic drag needed during descents and landings. The right module houses the Flaps lever, complete with realistic physical detents, allowing you to confidently adjust your lift coefficient at low speeds without stalling the aircraft.
Crucial Cockpit Systems Management: Beyond lift and drag controls, the add-on includes dedicated inputs for critical checklist procedures. It features a realistic Landing Gear lever with a satisfying mechanical actuation, allowing you to focus on managing your climb rate rather than clicking a mouse after takeoff. Below the gear lever, you’ll find a fully functional Parking Brake switch, which is perfect for securing your aircraft on the ramp during stormy weather or when the ground crew is not available to set chocks.
Magnetic Precision and Modularity: The Add-On modules attach seamlessly to the sides of your existing TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition via the included SATA cables and physical connectors, expanding your thrust quadrant into a single, comprehensive block. Because these levers utilize contactless magnetic sensors (H.E.A.R.T technology), there are no internal potentiometers to wear out or collect dust over time. This ensures that the physical inputs remain incredibly smooth and highly accurate for an unlimited lifespan.

Who It’s For
- Civil Aviation Simmers: The absolute best addition for gamers who primarily fly the A320, A380, or other commercial jets in Microsoft Flight Simulator or X-Plane.
- TCA Quadrant Owners: This product is designed specifically for users who already own the base Thrustmaster TCA Quadrant and want to fill out the sides to complete their throttle block.
- Realism Seekers: Those looking to ditch their keyboard or mouse for tactile, realistic physical switches when adjusting flaps or dropping the landing gear.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Does this product work on its own? No. The TCA Quadrant Add-On Airbus Edition is strictly an expansion module. It does not have a direct USB output to plug into your computer. It must be physically attached and connected via internal cables to the base Thrustmaster TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition to function.
- Will this work with Boeing aircraft or general aviation planes in the simulator? Yes. While the physical design and detents are heavily inspired by Airbus, the levers act as standard analog axes in your computer. Through the flight simulator’s control settings or Thrustmaster’s T.A.R.G.E.T software, you can map the speed brake and flaps levers to work perfectly with a Boeing 737, a Cessna 172, or any other aircraft.
- Are the add-on modules compatible with Xbox consoles? The TCA Quadrant Add-On Airbus Edition is natively designed for PC. However, if you plug it into the “TCA Quadrant Airbus Edition” base, and then connect that entire quadrant into the back of the “TCA Sidestick X Airbus Edition” (the specific Xbox-compatible joystick), the entire ecosystem will function on the Xbox Series X|S.
