PRE-ORDER DISCLAIMER: Accepting Pre-orders as of June 27th, 2025. First orders will ship in 4 weeks to allow for adjustments in production and to make further improvements to the product prior to shipment.
Bring realistic nosewheel steering to your simulator with the Blackbird Controls Airliner Tiller—a robust, modular control system designed for precision, durability, and long-term expandability.
1:1 Scale Handles
Full-scale tiller handles provide the authentic feel and ergonomics of the real flight deck—because realism shouldn’t be compromised.
Modular Design with Interchangeable Handles and Marking Plates
No need to buy a new tiller for every aircraft type. Swap out handles and ID plates to match different aircraft families—from Boeing to Airbus to McDonnell Douglas—using the same base unit. The backplate attaches magnetically and swaps in seconds, so transitions between aircraft types are quick and hassle-free.
Hall Effect Sensor Precision
Analog rotation tracked by a high-resolution Hall effect sensor means smooth, precise inputs with no mechanical wear and no need for recalibration.
Oversized 40mm Bearings
Built around industrial-grade 40mm bearings, the tiller offers a solid, smooth motion and long service life—no wobble, no fuss.
Range-of-Motion Limiting Plates
Integrated travel limiters allow you to set realistic rotation angles for different aircraft: 90° for Boeing, 75° for Airbus—on the same hardware.
Hidden Button Interface for Future Functionality
A concealed internal interface is built in for upcoming options like Airbus-style Nose Wheel Steering (NWS) buttons or McDonnell Douglas-style Parking Brake switches mounted at centerline.
60×60mm Bolt Pattern with Metal Threads
This is the bolt pattern used by Thrustmaster joysticks, which already enjoy a multitude of mounting options.
Made in the USA and designed with flight simulation in mind from the ground up, this is the last tiller you'll need. As your virtual hangar grows, just change the handle—not the hardware.
