Excerpt from FSElite
Nicki Repenning, founder of Meridian GMT, took the stage earlier at Flight Sim Expo 2026 to present an overview of his company’s hardware lineup.
Crucially for interested consumers wondering when we’d finally see these products on people’s desks – Nicki confirmed a limited pre-order SKU of both Horizon’s yoke and throttle products are in production with shipping dates set.
The Horizon+ yoke will be leaving the warehouse on October 28th, while the Latitude+ modular throttle quadrant will begin shipping December 28th. Pre-orders are open as of the publishing of this article.
Nicki also said during his presentation that customers wishing to pre-order Meridian’s hardware will only have to place a refundable $100 USD ( 86.45 EUR / 76.41 GBP ) deposit for the yoke product at this time, with full payment being taken further down the line.
The Horizon+ Yoke has a full purchase price of 349.99 USD / 302.56 EUR / 261.14 GBP
Pilots can also pre-order both the Horizon+ Yoke and Latitude+ throttle as a combined bundle for a refundable deposit of 200 USD / 172.89 EUR / 149.23 GBP. The discounted bundle has a full purchase price of 699.99 USD / 604.26 EUR / 522.29 GBP.
X-Ray Controller
In collaboration with PowerA and XBOX, MeridianGMT is also building a new flight simulation controller featuring a variety of buttons, levers, and precise sticks for smooth control inputs. A fixed wing and helicopter configuration is also available.
We didn’t learn anything new about these controllers during the presentation, with no release date or pricing information provided.
If you’re interested in learning more about the controllers, we wrote about them more extensively after FSWeekend. You can view that article here.
MeridianGMT’s New Longitude+ Rudder Pedals
Nicki finally shared new previews of an updated design for the Longitude+ Rudder Pedals. According to MeridianGMT, these pedals feature a unique cable and pulley design that provides pilots with a more realistic control feel. The pedals are estimated to be available in 2027.
