Flight base mount adapter Thrustmaster 2960932 for AVA bases, black, 40×40×58 mm

Thrustmaster 2960932 is an AVA base mount adapter in black, sized 40×40×58 mm. It provides a standardized mounting interface and a 2-inch (approx. 5 cm) metal extension that lets you offset or reposition an AVA-compatible flight base to change joystick orientation without disassembling the base. The adapter is designed to accept Thrustmaster joystick grips and uses a ring mechanism similar to the ring found on official Thrustmaster grips to simplify installation and ensure a secure connection.

Advantages

The adapter enables precise angular offset of the joystick orientation to improve ergonomic comfort and immersion, with selectable positions that shift the grip to 15° or 30°. Its compact metal construction offers a stable mounting solution while maintaining compatibility with the AVA accessory ecosystem. Installation is straightforward and avoids the need to dismantle the AVA base, reducing setup time and minimizing the risk of misalignment.

Suitable for

• Home flight simulator rigs where joystick centrality and comfort are priorities
• Racing or flight setups using AVA-compatible Thrustmaster bases and grips
• Users who want to offset joystick orientation by 15° or 30° without major reconfiguration

Key specifications

• Finish: black
• Material: metal extension (adapter body)
• Dimensions: 40 mm (width) × 40 mm (depth) × 58 mm (height)
• Offset angles supported: 15° and 30°
• Mounting interface: standardized AVA-compatible mounting ring for Thrustmaster grips

How to use

Place the adapter between the AVA base and the joystick grip using the ring mechanism to lock the grip in place. Select the desired offset orientation (15° or 30°) and align the adapter so the grip sits centrally or in the chosen offset position. Tighten mounting points according to the base and grip instructions to ensure a secure connection. No base disassembly is required for installation when using the ring-style attachment method.

Recommendations

Use the adapter with AVA-compatible Thrustmaster bases and grips to maintain proper mechanical fit and electrical connections. Verify that all mounting fasteners are tightened after initial installation and periodically during use. When changing grips or swapping configurations, follow Thrustmaster guidance and avoid forcing components beyond their designed range of motion.
