ThrustMaster Top Gun USB Joystick (rev2) Driver

The ThrustMaster Top Gun USB Joystick (rev2) driver helps Windows recognize the joystick and communicate with its flight controls and buttons. If your controller is missing from game settings, responds incorrectly, or needs to be set up after reinstalling Windows, checking the driver is a useful first step.

Key Features

• Windows input support: Allows compatible software to receive joystick movements and button presses through the Windows input system.
• Controller setup access: Once recognized, the joystick can be checked in Windows game controller settings, where available testing and calibration options help you verify its response.
• Microsoft-listed driver: The driver listing identifies Microsoft as the vendor, which does not mean Microsoft manufactured the joystick.
• Legacy Windows coverage: Listed operating systems include Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, and XP. For Windows 10/11 setups, note that Windows 11 compatibility is not confirmed by this listing.

How to Install ThrustMaster Top Gun USB Joystick (rev2) Driver

1. Check your Windows version. Confirm your operating system and whether it is 32-bit or 64-bit before selecting a package. Match the download to the joystick’s rev2 revision, not just the Top Gun product name.
2. Connect the joystick directly to a USB port. Let Windows attempt automatic detection first. A compatible built-in driver may already provide the input support you need.
3. Review the download details. Before choosing a ThrustMaster Top Gun USB Joystick (rev2) driver download for Windows, verify the supported system, device match, and source. If a free download is offered, avoid unrelated installers or bundled utilities.
4. Install or update the driver. Follow the included instructions if the package has an installer. For extracted driver files, open Device Manager, locate the joystick or unidentified USB device, select Update driver, and browse to the extracted folder.
5. Test the controls. Restart Windows if prompted, then open the Windows game controller settings to check movement and buttons. Select the joystick in your game and configure bindings separately if needed.

Keep the driver updated when a compatible release addresses a problem you are experiencing. Check Windows Update and compare available package details before installing the latest version; a newer driver for a different device revision is not a suitable replacement. If the joystick already works reliably, avoid unnecessary changes.
