Title: Ship Simulator Extremes Console Controls with bow thrust
Post by: wetpaint1984 on December 12, 2024, 19:40:48

Hello and Good Day,      ► Can someone lead me to some hardware Ship Simulator Controls in a console. We would like to the Simulator for some Training. Is it possible to purchase some console controls for the Simulator?

Back in the days, shipsim sold the Ship Control Unit. It has been discontinued several years ago. There is no dedicated lever for the bow thruster, but you can configure the available buttons. You can still purchase it new on some websites, like here:

There was also the Shipdriver. In my opinion it seemed a better option because there were more buttons to configure. There are dedicated switches for bow and stern thrusters. I don't think you can still purchase new, but here is one listed on ebay right now:

Sadly I never had the budget for any of them, so I can't vouch for one or the other.
