What customers say
Customer sentiment for the TR160 Flight Simulator Rig is overwhelmingly positive, positioning it as a premium, high-end solution for serious flight simulation enthusiasts. Users consistently laud the rig's exceptional build quality, primarily due to the robust 160mm aluminum profile construction, which provides unparalleled rigidity and zero flex, even when mounting heavy-duty yokes, throttle quadrants, and high-force rudder pedals. This stability is frequently cited as the single most significant factor enhancing immersion and realism. The modularity of the aluminum extrusion system is also highly praised, allowing users to customize mounting points extensively and future-proof the rig for potential motion platforms or peripheral upgrades. The included flight seat generally receives high marks for comfort during extended flight sessions, though ergonomics are highly subjective. The primary area of friction noted by customers is the assembly process. Due to the sheer weight and number of components inherent to a high-end profile rig, setup is often described as time-consuming and complex, sometimes requiring two people and better-organized instructions. Despite the high initial investment, the consensus is that the TR160 offers professional-grade performance and durability, making it a highly recommended, long-term investment for those seeking the ultimate static flight simulation platform.
