The Thrustmaster Sol-R 3 AVA Add-On Grip is a flight stick grip for PC space combat and exploration. It suits flight simulation players who want a dedicated grip for manoeuvring and controlling a spacecraft, provided they already have a compatible base.

Its 21 mappable action buttons give quick access to commands, with two triggers, two hat switches, a ministick and a thumbwheel. H.E.A.R.T. magnetic sensors provide 16-bit axis accuracy, including on the Z-axis. The ministick is backlit, while interchangeable ergonomic supports let the grip be configured for right or left-handed use. Two STAR cams are included for adjusting the axis curve when used with an AVA base.
