Thrustmaster SimTask Farmstick, 3-Axis Joystick for Farm Simulation Gaming (Compatible with PC)

I recently invested in a steering wheel/pedal set and quickly had issues when it came to looking around. I have a wired keyboard and mouse so moving those wasn't an option. I also like to swap between games so I didn't want to mess up my setup for other games. I was eyeing the Farmstick for a while and seeing it had an analog stick for looking around sealed the deal for me.I bought the Farmstick about 2 weeks ago and cannot get enough of it. It solved my issue with looking around while driving and then some. The buttons feel quality and planned out. The joystick itself feels high quality and fits in the hand perfect. The amount of buttons is great and I can do 95% of what I need from just the Farmstick. Setup was a breeze with Farming Simulator 25 automatically picked up on it and assigning the keybinds.My favorite part of the Farmstick is it works for more than just Farming Simulator. I quickly went into American Truck Simulator and after messing with the settings and setting up keybinds, it feels like a whole new game. Particularly because I enabled manual shifting and use the gear up and down switch to change gears.I also set it up to use as a regular joystick in Arma 3 for flying planes and helicopters. Again, setting up the keybinds was quick and easy. I did come into problems in Arma Reforger, so I still need to mess with that.The only con I have with the Farmstick is the base is massive. I hoped it would fit on the bracket for a shifter that came with my steering wheel stand, but it's too large and the screw holes are in a weird orientation. I had to settle with setting up a short nightstand by my desk.Overall, I highly recommend getting the Farmstick. It changed not only Farming Simulator, but many other games I play too.

Definitely game changer for FS22 Pc..Works great

I have been using the Logitech/Saitek Farming Simulator side panel since 2017, and over the last few months the buttons have been getting tired - sometimes resulting in no action and other times double action. I needed a replacement - and on the whole I would recommend the side panel (not the wheel!), though I was not plug and play with the later versions of Farming Simulator. But we're not reviewing the side panel here.I was on the hunt for a replacement, and of the few that are available today, I considered anything over the cost of the Logitech Side Panel a bit too pricey. The Thrustmaster met this requirement, and looked to be a good quality device. I had seen a couple of reviews on YouTube posted back in November, but it was sold out until March of this year.. but I was willing to wait. The device quality is good and I expect it to serve me well for another 7 years of Farming. All it took was to plug the device in (standard USB connection), and start up the game, set it up as a controller in the Game Options menu, and it was all set to go. It's taken me a while to get used to the configuration, and I've taken to printing out the parts of the manual which show the joystick diagram with the labelled button numbers. Those on the joystick have pictures, but the in-game help panel shows them all as numbers. The joystick gives very fine control when using Front Loader/Telehandler arms (something I was concerned about).I am happy with my purchase and would recommend it for anybody looking for a control stick for Farming Simulator.

I've been using the Thrustmaster SimTask Farmstick for a few weeks now, and it’s been a game-changer for Farming Simulator. The precision and control it offers make operating machinery feel much more immersive. The buttons and mini-stick are well-placed, and the ergonomic design is comfortable for long sessions.My only gripe is the price—it’s a bit steep, especially since it works best when paired with other accessories. But overall, it’s a solid product that really enhances the gameplay experience. If you’re a farming sim enthusiast, this is worth considering!

Basically had to just plug and play! A few key bindings were wierd but there a lot of open keys for programming. Everything pre programmed made sense. It tracks well and made farm sim a lot more fun! Also great as a flight stick too. I play star citizen here and there, this did the trick but I’ve had better for that. Still versatile!

works great

It’s great! The construction of the stick feels pretty solid. I got this to play farming simulator and what a difference it makes! More fun and immersive specially with the more complicated machinery like the log trucks or hale balers. I’ve spent hours on a pallet cart in first person view loading pallets of fabrics into a flat bed truck.

I use two of these for Farming Sim 22 and 25 while running excavators, dozers, front loaders, etc. While a lot of the controls come pre bound I would recommend clearing All the controls and binding your own. I find there are more buttons then you need but that’s always a nice problem to have I’m sure eventually I’ll have every key bound. I have probably 200-250 hours now using the sticks and have experienced no problems or button wear with the decals. If looking for a set of joystick to use for construction/ mining applications I would highly recommend these.
