Due to high demand, please expect shipment of your controller in approximately 2-3 weeks from your order date.
 
The Boss is a game controller that was designed around American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator, but can be used for any game that you'd like. Use it for your favorite titles such as DCS, FSX, and so on. Our controllers will work with any game that supports joysticks. If the game does not support joysticks, a simple 3rd party program, such as Joy2Key, can be used to program the buttons and switches to your liking to be used with any game or program.
 
The ignition is a real, all metal, universal ignition cylinder that provides a great feel and resistance when starting your aircraft or vehicles, as it would in real life. Don't lose your keys though, these are not universal and come with their own sets of keys! Two keys are provided with your purchase, so keep one somewhere safe! Enjoy the feel of the push/pull switch for functions such as a parking brake and trailer brake in your rig. Also, you have seven red push buttons to program to whatever you'd like.  Six rocker toggles to turn on and off accessories and four rotary encoders to controls functions such as cruise speeds, radio volume, and more.  Together, this gives you 30 button/switch combinations in total to control your games.
That's not it either! You choose the way you want your box labeled and the color or pattern of your faceplate.  Currently, faceplate colors are matte black, dark burl woodgrain, or brushed aluminum (brushed aluminum writing will be black, light cannot transmit through) One faceplate comes with your order and others can be ordered for the different games that you play. Swapping out the faces takes a matter of seconds, so no more trying to remember what buttons or switches do what in each game you play. We've all been there and it's aggravating, not any more though! Every A.S.P. product can also be customized by adding LED backlighting and a CB mic for communications. LED backlighting colors come in green, red, blue, yellow, or white.
 
More about the features of the game controller:
 
The CB mic is a real 4-pin CB microphone that allows you to communicate through in-game VoIP or your favorite VoIP software, such as TeamSpeak 3. The CB microphone model may vary. Please continue reading of how the different switch types operate, so you have an understanding of how the box will work to help you in deciding on the box that's best for you.
Red push buttons/horn button - Acts as a normal button, press it and release when done. Parking brake - works exactly as the toggles do, see above. Trailer brake - pulled out, it pushes and holds the button, push in and it releases.  It is programmed like this due to how ATS &  ETS is programmed. Ignition cylinder - There are 2 steps to this. From off to the run position, it acts as a toggle is described above. When rotated to the start position, it acts as a push button. Rocker toggles - Flip the switch, your accessory comes on, flip it again and your accessory turns off. Rotary Encoders - Rotary encoders work like a volume knob on a car stereo. Turn it right and it's a button press, repeated. Turn it left, another button press, repeated. Push in on it and it's a 3rd button press that acts as a push button. If the CB mic is added, the button on the mic acts as a push button, see above. Assign that button to your push to talk in game or TeamSpeak 3. If using in game VoIP, the CB mic must me your default mic if there isn't an option to choose which mic to use through the in-game menus. Adding the CB mic will put this box to 31 button/switch options.
