At FSWeekend 2025, Nicki Repenning officially introduced the first wave of products under his new brand, Meridian GMT. With a strong focus on modularity and user experience, Meridian GMT’s debut at FSWeekend lineup consists of the Sierra Plus Yoke, Tango Plus Throttle, and X-Ray Flight Sim Controller. All of these products will be available to demo at FlightSimExpo in June 2025.
Sierra Plus Yoke
The Sierra Plus Yoke builds on the traditional flight sim yoke with 50% more pitch axis travel and 14-bit Hall effect sensors for added precision.
A key feature is its haptic feedback system, allowing simmers to feel real-time feedback such as stall warnings and touchdown cues. The yoke also features a magnetic front panel, enabling easy attachment of accessories like tablets or checklists. Additionally, customizable switch configurations allow users to transition seamlessly between GA and airliner setups.
Tango Plus Throttle
The Tango Plus Throttle introduces a swappable quadrant system, making it adaptable for general aviation, airliners, and helicopters. Users can switch between different throttle types, including Boeing and Airbus-style detents, thanks to a magnetic panel system.
A standout feature is the LCD annunciator panel, which displays key aircraft alerts. The throttle also includes a built-in autopilot and communication panel, alongside NFC-based auto-configuration, allowing instant profile switching without manual adjustments.
X-Ray Flight Sim Controller
Designed for console and PC users, the X-Ray Flight Sim Controller serves as a flight-specific alternative to traditional gamepads. Featuring modular faceplates and interchangeable throttle inserts, this controller can be tailored for different aircraft types, from GA to military jets. Notable features include a spring-loaded flap lever, helicopter collective mode, and dedicated rudder triggers. The X-Ray Controller aims to bring a more authentic flight experience to users who may not have space for a full yoke and throttle setup.
The Future
Nicki also said during his presentation that there is more than 35 products on the roadmap right now. Most of this has been completed in 2D work, with 3D work and mechanical engineering the next steps for the team.
