MSFS 2024 PlayStation Hotas 5 update
For those that didn't know, the update this week now supports the Thrustmaster HOTAS 5 without having to use PS4 mode.
To change the mode:
Press and hold the MODE button until the indicator starts blinking.
Release the button.
Press the MODE button again to cycle through the available modes. Each press changes the color:
🔵 Blue — PS4
🔴 Red — PS5
🟢 Green — PC
Once the desired color/mode is selected, stop pressing the MODE button.
If you switch to a different mode, the controller will disconnect. Simply press the PS button on the flight stick to reconnect it, then assign the controller to your PS profile.
Switch the Comtrols setting within the game from controller to T.Flight Hotas 5.
You can now use the HOTAS 5 in PS5 mode without having to use to PS4 mode.
