It supports 6 independent physical buttons, multiple mouse modes, and vertical pitch reversal, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of platforms including Windows, Linux, Mac, Raspberry Pi, and Arcade1Up cabinets. Built with a robust metal frame and engineered plastic grips, it delivers an authentic, heavy arcade feel perfect for Star Wars: Squadrons, Elite Dangerous, and classic arcade emulators. ## Description The traditional ATARI Arcade Yoke controller back in 1983 used potentiometers to generate control output for the Star war arcade machine. It was made with a combination of complex machining parts and mechanisms. This includes having to use a gear drive mechanism, potentiometers and a complex wiring harness design. The GRS Flight Yoke uses a complete redesigned mechanism, overcoming the limitation of the original design. The GRS design includes the following: 1. Non-contact mechanical structure with magnetic sensing technology to drive the Yoke controller. 2. No gears, no potentiometer. Maximize precision, durability and the stability of the yoke controller. 3. Support new games!! ( Elite dangerous, STAR WARS: SQUADRONS etc.)The GRS Flight Yoke uses the standard USB interface. It will be recognized as gamepad controller on Windows/Linux/Raspberry Pi and can be used in any emulation platform that supports an analog joystick or mouse with 6 independent buttons including the functional buttons. So it’s more than just a yoke controller. 4. Physical Inertia Centering mechanism, a more accurate result and less re-calibration needed for the analog joystick. 5. 2 Buttons + 2 Triggers + 2 Functional Buttons (6 total) are recognized as Independent gamepad controller buttons. 6. Complete metal structure is used(handle grips are made with high strength hardened engineering plastic). 7. Mouse mode: Allow more game flexibility. The GRS Yoke can be used for games that use a mouse over an analog joystick. 8. Vertical direction reverse switching: Allow user to switch the direction of pitch without digging into the input configuration. 9. Arcade1UP Star War Arcade ready. Arcade Quality replacement yoke for your Star War Arcade1UP. 10. ATGames Legends Ultimate compatibility via USB port with Mouse or gamepad joystick mode. 11. Commercial Arcade Compatibility. Potentiometer signal output. Review: Solid, quality construction - Having loved the Star Wars vector arcade games since the 80s, i’ve never quite managed to get the same experience playing MAME versions with an arcade stick. The GRS flight yoke changes that… it’s a reassuringly heavy unit, which performs beautifully, to recreate the “arcade feel” of the original. So much, in fact, that I plan to construct a sit-in cabinet solely for the Star Wars games. USB plug and play allowed me to be playing immediately. Also works with lots of other games - Outrun, Afterburner, Marble Madness, Paperboy - Any game that requires an analogue control. Review: Quality Star Wars Yoke - Quality solid very well made as good if not better than the original. ## Features - Analog control with 6 physical buttons - Gamepad controller support - Two mouse modes support - Pitch direction reversion - Compatible with Windows, Linux, Mac, Raspberry PI,Arcade1Up,ALU, Original Arcade ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08L7TVCM2 | | Customer reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (80) | | Manufacturer reference | TS-FY-01 | | Package Dimensions | 33.02 x 21.59 x 17.78 cm; 3.31 kg | ## Images ![Thunderstick GRS Flight Yoke - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71PYN8hMMKL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Big emulation fan, trying to justify this purchase - besides Star Wars and Paperboy, what other games do you find yourself using this with?** A: There's plenty more to use it for. It works with shooter arcade games, all car racing games, pinball fx, amd other flight games besides star wars. This yoke is a beast! Heavy, well made, all metal, digital (no gears to break down) nice clicky buttons, 6 buttons total. Can be hooked up to original star wars arcade machine, Raspberry Pi, arcade1up star wars cabinet, or PC. It's future proof.

I really really need this! Awsome job!** A: available now **Q: Purchased to use with a mame cabinet but can't get it working in games. it is recognized as a usb mouse device. how should mame be configured?** A: In the MAME config settings for each game, you may need to explicitly enable use of the mouse for input. (In MAME32 and MAME64 on PC you do this by right-clicking on the game and choosing Controller -> Properties.) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid, quality construction *by A***N on 25 May 2023* Having loved the Star Wars vector arcade games since the 80s, i’ve never quite managed to get the same experience playing MAME versions with an arcade stick.

The face buttons on each grip are just mini sticks which just push down, poor implementation and just feel weird, should of used regular controller face buttons. This whole controller could do with a complete overhaul, more buttons and better quality buttons, analogue triggers and also needs a POV Hat (more than enough room), I am told by GRS they are working on an add on, but time would tell, should just redesign from group up and should also not pre apply the face sticker but include seperate as optional as its quite ugly and tacky. ## Frequently Bought Together - Thunderstick tsticks GRS Flight Yoke - GRS Push & Pull Arcade Spinner Ultra --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/371697652-thunderstick-grs-flight-yoke](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/371697652-thunderstick-grs-flight-yoke) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
