The Thrustmaster AVA Offset Adapter is an all-metal industrial-grade accessory designed to modify the mechanical orientation of compatible joystick grips on Windows PC. Specifically engineered for the AVA (Advanced Versatile Architecture) ecosystem, this adapter introduces a 15° permanent inclination to the grip. This offset replicates the ergonomic positioning found in authentic fighter jet cockpits, such as the F/A-18C Hornet, where the stick is tilted forward or to the side to align with the pilot's natural forearm and wrist position during center-mounted operation. 15° Industrial Offset & Alignment Anatomic Positioning: The 15-degree tilt reduces wrist strain by aligning the grip with the user's natural neutral arm position, essential for precision maneuvers. Center-Stick Optimization: Designed primarily for "Center-Stick" configurations where the joystick is mounted between the pilot's legs, mirroring actual military aircraft layouts. Rotational Flexibility: Allows for fine-tuning the grip’s rotation relative to the base, providing custom yaw or pitch alignment for the pilot's hand. Mechanical Build & Construction 100% Metal Construction: Crafted from high-density metal to ensure zero flex and high torsional rigidity under heavy Force Feedback or spring tension. Friction-Free Connection: Precision-threaded connectors maintain a secure, gap-free interface between the joystick base and the grip handle. Wear Resistance: Finished with an industrial coating to prevent oxidation and maintain thread integrity through repeated reconfigurations. Base & Grip Compatibility The AVA Offset Adapter is compatible with the following Thrustmaster ecosystem components: Compatible Bases: AVA Base and the HOTAS Magnetic Base (Warthog). Compatible Grips: F/A-18C Hornet™ Grip, HOTAS Warthog™ Grip, F-16C Viper™ Grip, and AVA Series Grips. Note: Not compatible with the T.Flight or T.16000M non-modular joystick series.
