c) 5-way switches in all the hat switches (CMS, TMS, DMS and TRIM), with the
possibility to disable the center position.
d) 5-way switches where in real life there is only 1 (WR, NWS and PINKY), with
the possibility to disable the additional directions.
e) Three status LEDs used for BLE information and Slot number in use.
f) Realistic Trigger movement.
g) Independent Bluetooth communications, so you can use it alone, or with an X/Y
base.
h) Three Analog axes in the standard configuration for Roll, Pitch and Yaw.
These axes are independent of the standard axes in the X/Y base.
i) Lightweight construction to allow use with VR goggles in standup position or
disconnected from the base.
j) Firmware upgradeable through BLE, so you could need a 4.0 or higher BLE
dongle if your PC doesn’t have BLE included.
The F16SGRH is made of a surface black nylon plastic with a matte finish and a
slightly grainy feel, the fixation system is made of nylon plastic and does not include
the BLE communications module or analog axes.
The F16SGRH-CE is also manufactured in nylon plastic, but it features a handmade
finish with 2K painting, a fixation system in aeronautic aluminum with knurled nut and
finally, it includes the BLE communications and the Roll, Pitch and Yaw analog axes.
The F16SGRH corresponds to the stereotype of standard grips, i.e. communications
with the base is achieved only through a 5-pin mini-Din connector, just like all
Thrustmaster compatible grips. It has 5-way switches that offer up to 64 different
buttons and a rotary switch with 8 positions. The information the user can obtain from
the F16SGRH only depends on the base connected. That means that if the F16SGRH
is used with a TM Cougar base, the features will be identical to that of a Cougar stick.
But if it is used with a FSSB-R3 or FSSB-R3L, you will be able to enjoy all the new
features included in the new firmware created for the R3 and R3L: 8 different
configurable slots, 64 buttons to send keystrokes (only in the R3L), a digital mouse
(only in the R3L), etc. If you are a F16SGRH owner, we suggest looking for more
information about these new features in the FSSB-R3 User Guide because this user
guide is focused on the F16SGRH-CE.
The F16SGRH-CE has everything previously mentioned for the F16SGRH, but it can
also work independently since it has a BLE communications module. So if the
F16SGRH-CE is connected to a FSSB-R3 or R3L, you’ll enjoy the new features from
the FSSB (just like the F16SGRH) or directly from the F16SGRH-CE. And if you
connect it to a TM compatible base or use it in standalone mode, you’ll enjoy the
features directly from the F16SGRH-CE.
