New Airbus Sidestick for Simulators! Real Airbus Pilot Takes a Look Winwing A3xx Grip

Today we look at the brand new A3xx Sidestick grip from Winwing for your home flight simulator!

I am a real world Airbus pilot with thousands of hours flying the real aircraft and thought it would be fun to have a look at the new detailed simulation of the longest baby 'bus by Toliss as well as the new MSFS a320 NEO. Hopefully you find this useful and it brings another perspective to your simulation. Any thoughts or comments are welcome!

There she is! The cat's face reveal!!

... and 320 Sim Pilot, you good bud? You sound a bit under the weather or stressed out or something along those lines. Get well soon, mate!

I finally got to try it today with the Super Libra base and monstertech desk mount. And...wow. The level of immersion suddenly took a whole new dimension. Coming from the TM TCA - and knowing first hand what a real airbus stick feels like - this is it! Really glad I picked one up and really highly recommend it if it's in the budget. Just remember, you'll definitely need a mount.

I recommend MonsterTech desk mount for it. You can customize height of whole setup if You buy long version.

Thanks, nice review. I also quite loved the cameo! I maintain: all unboxing videos should contain cats. :)

@320 Sim Pilot Woud you reccomend this over the FSProjects grip+Warthog? Also, would you say the Super Libra base is better than their latest Orion2 base? How would the two or three joysticks compare, and then fair up vs the real Airbus stick?

[xXshinichiconanXx]

I bought it and I don't regret it. Sooo nice. Finally a real Sidestick. Not this wannabe Thrustmaster stuff...

[AlecsBricks]

When are you going to do a review on it? I’ve been considering getting it but there aren’t any reviews anywhere else. It would really great if you could! Thanks!

Sadly I only recently purchased my x56 Hotas but this product does look superb and if I was in the market I'd definitely be considering this for sure.

MAN, I wish i had that, the a320 is my favourite plane and its also the only plane i fly in simulators

[captsonko.]

Good work thanks capt we appreciate your effort.

I've got an Airbus pilot friend who's always been put off getting into flight simming because he says nothing comes close to the real Airbus joystick, would be interested to see if this could tempt him.

I wonder if there are any plans for WW to make a FO stick?

[ichgacer]

Which is more realistic this or the Bruner ??

[miskaheikkinen]

Are you going to try it in your future streams?

[jay-rus]

Cant believe they just abandoned this. I ended up getting the FS Projects side stick….which is amazing. However, I would have actually preferred to have the hat switch

[jay-rus]

2 years, and still havent found this available

[congq]

Did you tried the difference between the super libra vs Orion base? im having trouble selecting between these two bases

[guillaume_]

Question for 320 Sim Pilot and other bus drivers: are the sticks mounted slightly angled or straight? Did some time in A320 sim but can't remember. I'd imagine straight?

[samuelsmith]

Are you familiar with airline tools A320

[denisremon]

hello, thank you very much for your interesting and informative video ... I am under mfs 2020 and x-plane 11, not having a trackir and not wanting one, I would like to know if the Chinese hat of the joystick is comfortable and totally usable in multidirectional view ...? In my opinion, it would be good for the big brands such as virpil, vkb and winwing to finally decide to embark on civil aviation joysticks like this one ...
