Earlier this year my colleague, Ben Wilson, reviewed a pretty interesting controller for Flight Simulator enthusiasts from Honeycomb. It’s since been made available in an Xbox variant, too, but it looks like it won’t be the only flight stick controller on the block.
Teased today is the Project X-Ray Flight Deck Wireless Controller, designed by Meridian GMT and built by PowerA.
I mean, just look at it. I’ve recently written about how as a Microsoft Flight Simulator novice I’m already looking to get a flight stick, in part because there’s so much to do that isn’t too friendly to controller buttons. Project X-Ray laughs at that. And me.
Something big is in the works, and we can finally share the news! We joined forces with @MeridianGMT to develop the Project X-Ray Flight Deck Wireless Controller. Project X-Ray is in active development, but you can sign up for updates! We’ll reach out the moment it lands. pic.twitter.com/mKjhnILeWIJune 12, 2026
I’ll admit I’m not familiar with Meridian…
