Difference between Logitech X56 H.O.T.A.S and H.O.T.A.S Rhino - Gray Rhino in Macro Photography

I am considering buying a controller for aircraft simulation.

Is there a difference between the Logitech X56 H.O.T.A.S, and Logitech X-56 H.O.T.A.S Rhino?

I see a difference in price, but they look the same.

Is the X56 Rhino good?

Review: The X56 works extremely well with Microsoft FS 2020. The large number of switches, hats, and other controls provide great options, minimizing the need to reach for the mouse or keyboard. The throttle quadrant is smooth with the right amount of resistance.

Are Logitech Hotas good?

The good: Lots of buttons, switches, hats. Feels generally comfortable to use. the stick movement feels very smooth. The multiple springs are a nice addition and changing them is easy enough where you could swap them out on a whim.

Does the X56 Hotas work on Xbox?

The T. Flight Hotas One and the Hori Hotas. I believe a bespoke chip is required to talk to the Xbox so 'any hotas' won't do. Now I know the X56 isn't officially compatible and that there are a few interesting controllers in the pipeline.

How do you calibrate a Hotas X56?

Axis calibration process for Stick:
  • Move all axes except x/y axes to max and min twice.
  • Move the X axis to min and meanwhile press the buttons Trigger and B and D(show buttons 1,3,5).
  • Calibration is completed when all lights go out.
