I have a flight simulation helicopter game called Hellfire Squadron. Features the CH-60 helicopter. How compatible is this joystick with Macs?

According to people who have tested, T16000M is compatible with Mac. Take a look here:

Works for me! I use it with a ThrustMaster X-Fighter.Edit (May 2015):However, because OS X provides no calibrator, any joystick becomes useless unless you virtualize Windows/Linux (which have calibrators) with something like Parallels/VMWare Fusion. If only the Rockfire unit came with installable drivers containing a calibrator like the Xbox 360 controller does. Unfortunately, they have not been maintaining/supporting the product at all.

Sorry, no drivers and no support for Mac from logitech across most if not all of their line. I'm afraid you will have a hard time finding an affordable stick that will support Mac, I'd suggest using Bootcamp and running Windows for gaming.

I ordered this for Mac OS 10.4.8 before reading these messages. Is anyone using it on a Mac? Does it use a Logitech or third-party driver as mentioned above?

The control works on a Mac, but the program is for Windows only. I use Aerofly RC7 for the flight simulator on my Mac. Its the only one written for a Mac. The other option is to use a Windows based FS with Parallels.

Yes it works perfectly. I've used it with flight simulator X and have had no problems. If you do happen to have any issues just calibrate the joystick when you plug it in, and that's it. I'm not sure how it compares to Windows 7 because I didn't use FSX with that operating system.

Yes, it works flawlessly, I just got it, and it is perfectly compatible with Mac OS X 10.9.1, (Mac Mini, Apple Macbook Air, newest version. It scrolls extremely fast, equivalent to the Track Pad by Apple, and is incredibly responsive on one of those old soft mouse pads. This is way better than the M305 for Mac's.

It may not work with an Apple product...the joystick is a Microsoft product...they (Microsoft & Apple) don't play together!

Works great on a Mac with OpenEmu ... Tested for both Genesis and 32x with the six button controller.

Wile I didn't come across any programs/Apps that were non Flight Simulator related that didn't function properly. I wouldn't rule it out for your MacBook.

I can confirm it works with OSX 10.9 using the "tattiebogle" drivers. Feels just as responsive as when playing on the 360.

Yes Mac 10.6 is compatible. Your best bet is to download the drivers directly from Realtek. Here's the link. http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=48&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#RTL8188RU

I don't know the answer to this quest as I do not have a mac. I do know that the thrustmaster website has a compatibility website. You can also call there 800 for questions even if you are not a customer.

Yes, I have a X52 that the joystick went bad with and so I bought a CH Fighterstick and it works fine. The only issue is that without the X52 joystick, you obviously can't clutch and change modes with the X52 throttle. Incidentally I like the CH stick a lot better; it's more precise and a lot less jittery than the X52 stick.
