War Thunder · MSFS · Ace Combat · Every xCloud flight game

Your HOTAS.
On Xbox Cloud Gaming.

Plug in any HOTAS or joystick — Thrustmaster T.16000M, Saitek X52, Logitech X56, Warthog, or any HID-compatible stick. xFlightStick translates it into a standard Xbox controller for Xbox Cloud Gaming so War Thunder, MSFS and every flight game on xCloud just work, with real stick, rudder and throttle.

What you get

Designed to feel invisible. Works like you wish xCloud already did.

Every xCloud flight game

War Thunder, Microsoft Flight Simulator, Ace Combat 7, Star Wars Squadrons — if it streams on Xbox Cloud Gaming, your stick works. No per-game setup.

Any HOTAS, out of the box

Thrustmaster T.16000M, Saitek X52 / X52 Pro, Logitech X56, Warthog, VIRPIL — or any HID-compatible joystick. Detected automatically, no drivers.

Full axis control

Map pitch, roll, yaw, throttle and camera axes independently. Per-axis deadzone, sensitivity curves and invert. Named profiles per device.

Live overlay, never guess

A small on-screen panel mirrors your stick position and throttle in real time — so you always know the input is reaching the game before you take off.

Games that work

Built for every flight game on Xbox Cloud.

xFlightStick doesn't touch the game — it tells xCloud your HOTAS is an Xbox controller. Every current and future flight title on Game Pass Ultimate works the moment you plug in.

FAQ

Questions we get a lot.

Does xFlightStick work with War Thunder on xCloud?

Yes. xFlightStick makes your HOTAS look like a standard Xbox controller, so War Thunder streamed through Xbox Cloud Gaming picks it up exactly like a gamepad. Pitch, roll, yaw, throttle and all buttons map cleanly.

Which sticks are supported?

Any HID-compatible USB joystick or HOTAS works. Popular models with built-in axis defaults: Thrustmaster T.16000M, Saitek X52 / X52 Pro, Logitech X56, Thrustmaster Warthog, VIRPIL Controls. If it registers as a HID device it's supported — even models not on that list.

Can I map my throttle, rudder and camera axes?

Yes. Every axis is individually assignable. Pitch, roll, yaw, throttle, camera X and camera Y all have separate slots with deadzone, sensitivity curve and invert per axis. You can save multiple named profiles per device.

Does it work with Microsoft Flight Simulator on xCloud?

Yes. MSFS 2024 on Xbox Cloud Gaming receives your HOTAS as a standard Xbox controller. Assign your stick axes to the Xbox inputs the game expects and fly normally.

Is this a subscription?

No. One payment of $12 and you have access forever — including every future update.

Do I still need Xbox Game Pass Ultimate?

Yes. xFlightStick only handles input — you still need Xbox Game Pass Ultimate to stream flight games through xCloud.

Can I install it on another computer?

Yes. Your license is tied to your Google account. Install the extension on any device, sign in, and it just works — no keys, no codes.

What if it doesn't work with my setup?

You'll know before you pay — the overlay shows your stick and throttle live in preview mode. If you've paid and the extension genuinely doesn't work with your setup, email support@xflightstick.com and we'll refund you in full. See our Terms for the full refund policy.
