In the past two years the Hawk joystick with hydraulic force feedback had a major redesign. With its enhanced performance it is stronger, more quiet and ready for you. At the Flightsim event in Lelystad on November 1 and 2 you can be the first to this new joystick.  

The waiting is over. The Paccus Hawk is coming. This week the assembling of the parts started at our production site at the ‘Stick’ in Almere. The new batches of parts that arrived last week are put together with the utmost precision. Every part separately checked before it is added to the joystick by chief […]

At the FSweekend in Lelystad Lukáš Miláček from Take on Helicopters tested the Hawk with his PC helicopter flight game Take on Helicopters. In this video he talks about this experience:

“Hi, I’m Bob Clinton. I have been flight simming for about 20 years. I have got pre screen setup with the ppo compatibles which is the best I can afford. Having tried this one I really find it really nice to use. I have tried force feedback joysticks in

These are some pictures of the prototype:

Your chance to feel and buy the Hawk at the UK’s biggest Flightsim Weekend!
14th and 15th May 2011

The Flight Simulation Weekend was great. Many people had a chance to feel the Hawk. Although it was the ‘old’ prototype, with all the cracking and creaking, the response was very positive. It’s a good thing we choose brush-less motors for the production model so wear and tear is no longer an issue.

On 6 and 7 november we will show our new design to the public at the Flight Sim Weekend in the Aviodrome in Lelystad.
This is your chance to test the hydraulic force feedback of the HAWK and the hydraulic damping of the FALCON.

When will the HAWK and FALCON be available?

It’s time. After months of testing technical models the first integrated model is ready. In cooperation with Tildesign in Zeewolde the electronics and software are now all merged. With the oil in, the first tests are promising. Junior could hardly hold the stick. In the hydraulic part some fine-tuning is needed. In the next weeks, further
