Verdict for MSFS
The Thrustmaster TCA Sky Yoke (PS5) is the one yoke MSFS 2024 supports on PS5, and its built-in trim wheel lets you roll off the pressure on the yoke in the climb. It's brand new with no owner reviews yet, and the PS5 and Xbox versions don't swap.

Pros & Cons for MSFS
Strengths
- Throttle, trim and rudder controls all sit on the one unit, so you can set climb power, roll the trim wheel to take the load off your arm after rotating, and keep the nose straight on the centerline without reaching for a keyboard.
- The main axes use Hall effect sensors, meaning contactless magnets instead of parts that rub and wear, and the centering is damped rather than snappy, so the small pitch nudges on short final settle back to center without jumping past where you wanted them.
- With 9 cm of pitch travel, 180 degrees of roll and a metal shaft, it suits someone holding altitude in a Cessna or hand-flying a 737 approach, and 24 programmable inputs across 7 axes cover gear, flaps and views; Thrustmaster TFRP pedals plug in later if you want proper feet on the rudder.
Trade-offs
- It ships October 28, 2026, so no one has lived with it through a long MSFS session yet, and the Xbox and PS5 versions are not interchangeable, so order the PS5 one if that's your console.
- The throttle is built into the yoke body rather than a separate quadrant you can slide where you like, so you don't get the row of levers that a standalone quadrant gives you for throttle, prop and mixture on a twin.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a good Flight Yoke for MSFS?
Yes, especially if you fly MSFS 2024 on PS5, where this is the only yoke the sim supports, and it scores 88.0/100 for this sim. It shines on general aviation and airliner hand-flying, because throttle, trim and rudder are right there and the damped centering keeps pitch corrections gentle. It shows its limits if you want separate levers for a twin or a dedicated switch panel, since everything here lives on one unit.
Is it worth the price for MSFS?
For the money you get a yoke, throttle, trim wheel and rudder control in one box with contactless Hall effect sensors on the main axes, which is a lot of the cockpit without buying add-ons. The next step up in price can buy separate hardware, a standalone throttle quadrant or a switch panel, rather than a better basic flying feel.
Does it work on Xbox or PS5?
It works on PC and PS5, and on PS5 it is the only yoke MSFS 2024 supports, so that platform question answers itself. Xbox Series X|S needs the Xbox-licensed version instead, Xbox Cloud Gaming doesn't accept yokes at all, and either way the same unit still plugs into a PC.
What else do I need with it?
Not much: throttle, trim and rudder controls are built in, so you can fly, taxi and land in a crosswind out of the box. Add Thrustmaster TFRP pedals when you want to steer with your feet and hold a sideslip properly, and make sure you have a solid desk edge to mount to so the yoke doesn't shift when you pull back.
How should I configure this in MSFS?
On PC, check that MSFS has loaded a profile for it and that each axis is assigned, then fly a short circuit and confirm pitch isn't reversed before you worry about anything else. If it feels twitchy in the flare, add a small dead zone (a little slack around center where inputs are ignored) and soften the sensitivity curve on pitch and roll, and set up the trim wheel first so you can trim for the climb instead of holding back pressure.
