Product details
Flight configurations and seat
The cockpit supports yoke layouts, side-mounted throttle or joystick layouts and a center-stick combat configuration using the seat cut-out. The seat uses high-density foam with PU leather and suede plus a double recliner mechanism. Keyboard and mouse supports can be repositioned for the chosen layout.
Included mounting plates and verified hardware examples
Next Level Racing publishes model lists for the included plates. Examples include Thrustmaster Warthog and TCA controls, Logitech X52/X56, Winwing, VPC and VKB hardware on the flight plate; Virtual Fly Yoko, Honeycomb Alpha, Logitech G Pro and Turtle Beach VelocityOne with an adaptor on the yoke plate; and Thrustmaster, MFG, Logitech and Virtual Fly rudder pedals on the rudder plate. NLR also states broad MOZA compatibility, but exact MOZA bolt patterns should still be checked per model.
Adjustability, dimensions and upgrade path
The cockpit measures 153 × 99 × 122 cm, supports users from 120 to 210 cm and has a 150 kg maximum user weight. Seat position and flight-arm/rudder-plate angle are adjustable. Compatible NLR motion hardware requires the Motion Adapter Frame, sold separately.

Frequently asked questions
Can I mount both a yoke and HOTAS controls on the NLR Flight Simulator?
Yes, in supported layouts. Use NLR's exact plate compatibility list to confirm each yoke, throttle or HOTAS model before mounting it.
Which rudder pedals are officially listed for the included rudder plate?
NLR lists Thrustmaster TPR with adaptors, T-Flight Rudders, MFG Crosswinds, Logitech G Pro Rudder Pedals and Virtual Fly Ruddo+.
Does the cockpit make PC-only flight hardware compatible with Xbox or PlayStation?
No. The cockpit is only a mechanical mounting platform. PC or console support comes from the installed flight controls and simulator, which must be checked separately.
What is the difference between product weight and boxed weight?
NLR specifies 49.5 kg product weight and 56.3 kg boxed weight. The Shopify Variant Weight should therefore use 49.5 kg.
Can the NLR Flight Simulator be upgraded with motion?
Yes. NLR supports Motion Plus/Traction Plus through the required Motion Adapter Frame, with additional traction-adapter hardware for some combinations.
