Verdict for MSFS
The Logitech G Pro Flight Throttle Quadrant suits pilots flying Cessnas and light twins who set power with a keyboard key today: three levers cover throttle, prop and mixture. Logitech doesn't state contactless sensors, it's PC only, and you get the levers plus a few switches, nothing more.

Pros & Cons for MSFS
Strengths
- Three separate levers map to throttle, propeller and mixture, so you can lean the mixture (trim the fuel-to-air ratio) in a Cessna at cruise altitude with your hand instead of hunting for a keyboard key.
- Logitech says the levers have detents at idle and reverse, the notches you feel at the bottom of the travel, so you can find idle on short final and pull into reverse on the landing roll without looking down.
- It fits the simmer who flies piston singles and twins on PC, where any USB quadrant works in MSFS and popular ones load a ready-made control profile; it sits alongside a yoke or a stick as the missing power axis.
Trade-offs
- Logitech doesn't say the levers use contactless (Hall-effect) sensors, the kind with no sliding contact to wear out, so an older unit can get jittery and make thrust wander on a long ILS approach; a recalibration or a small dead zone usually settles it. It's also an older design that Amazon lists as shipping in one to two months, so order early.
- Three levers and a few switches is the whole package: fly a twin with prop and mixture assigned and flaps or speed brake go back to the keyboard, and there's no autopilot panel for the heading and altitude bugs. Spending more buys extra levers, contactless sensors or that autopilot panel, and this one is PC only, so there's no Xbox route.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a good Throttle Quadrant for MSFS?
Yes, if you fly piston singles and light twins and want power, prop and mixture on real levers, and it scores 50.3/100 for MSFS. It shines in a Cessna or a small twin, where three axes cover almost everything your right hand touches between takeoff and shutdown. It shows its limits in airliners, where you'd want more levers and an autopilot panel, and in the sensor spec Logitech never states.
Is it worth the price for MSFS?
For the money you get the core of what a quadrant does: three assignable axes with detents you can feel, which is a real change from a slider or a single key. The next step up in price buys more levers, contactless sensors or an autopilot panel, so it comes down to whether GA flying is where you spend your hours.
Does it work on Xbox or PS5?
It's PC only, so it connects by USB to a Windows PC running MSFS, where any USB quadrant is recognized and popular ones load a ready-made control profile. There's no Xbox route for this one, and on PS5 no separate quadrant is supported at all.
What else do I need with it?
Pair it with a yoke for GA flying or a stick if you prefer, and add rudder pedals when you want to hold the center line in a crosswind landing. On the desk, set it on the side of your throttle hand, just outboard of the yoke, so your fingers drop onto the levers without reaching across.
How should I configure this in MSFS?
In MSFS assign the first lever to throttle, the second to propeller and the third to mixture, then fly a short circuit and reverse any axis that reads backwards. After that, learn where the idle and reverse detents sit at the bottom of the travel, and swap the lever handles so each one's shape tells you what it does without looking.
