RS-35 HOTAS

Realsimulator’s professional version of the F-35 HOTAS

Technical description

RS-35 Throttle PRO composed by base and grip

RS-35 Flight Stick

The Flight Stick consists of a simplified, non-active version of the base, along with a high-fidelity replica of the grip. The base features the FSSB-R3 PRO item, an upgraded version of the renowned FSSB-R3, incorporating significant advancements in sensors and electronics. These improvements ensure continuous 24/7 performance, delivering high precision and stability under all conditions. In its standard configuration, the unit allows for sensitivity adjustments ranging from 2 to 13 lb.

The RS-35 HOTAS is the ultimate solution for simulation professionals, designed to deliver exceptional performance in both desktop setups and cockpit configurations. Its premium construction ensures high durability, enabling smooth and precise movements.

The system features high-fidelity replicas of the F-35 HOTAS grips, meticulously designed to accurately reproduce the dimensions and functionalities of the original equipment. This enables highly realistic training in simulation environments, whether through virtual reality, mixed reality, or traditional simulation systems.

RS-35 Throttle

The Throttle consists of a simplified version of the base (no friction control or auto-throttle) and a high-fidelity replica of the grip. The base is crafted from a precision-machined aluminum block, consisting of both a base and a lid to ensure optimal accuracy. This robust base serves as the support structure for the movement system, which features a high-precision assembly of stainless steel linear guides and recirculating ball sliders, designed to offer long-lasting durability and smooth, precise movement. Throughout the 9-inch travel range there are installed detents to mark the Afterburner and STOVL positions.

Stick and Throttle grips are high-fidelity replicas, fully manufactured from high density resin in a one-piece body construction with a handmade finish with 2K paints. The standard version is populated with commercial-grade switches and sensors that provide a tactile feel similar to the real ones. Military-grade switches can be provided upon request.

RS-35 HOTAS cockpit version

Upon request, both Throttle and Flight Stick can be supplied in cockpit version. These correspond to the same functional and passive versions described earlier, but once installed in the cockpit, they exhibit an external appearance identical to the real models. In this option, Throttle can be upgraded with friction.

There is an active version of the F-35 HOTAS, but it is not available as a standalone component and is exclusively supplied as part of the cockpit. If you are interested, we invite you to visit our dedicated F-35 cockpit page.

Standard version populates with commercial grade switches and sensors. Military grade components can be provided upon request.

Plug and play devices with no drivers.
The set is supplied with two software tools: a firmware update (DCC PRO) and a GUI application (RS_HID_DEV_TOOL PRO) to configure it.
