My Verdict

In conclusion I give the Fleshlight Flight Pilot a 3.5 out of 5. I really wanted to give it a 4 but the price was a deterrent to me doing so with it being a manual stroker. The quality is top notch and it’s built to last but $60 for a manual stroker still feels a little steep to me.

  2. Want a stroker that is built to last
  3. Enjoy a textured inner sleeve

Don't buy, if you...

  1. Want a toy that has functions to it such as vibrating, sucking, or spinning

Using the Fleshlight Flight Pilot

My Personal Experiences with Fleshlight Flight Pilot

My VERY first thought when using the Fleshlight Flight Pilot was “damn, I wish the casing on this thing was textured or made of a more slip resistant material.” The reason for this is because I had accidentally gotten lube on the my hands in the process of using the Fleshlight Flight Pilot and found the sides of the Pilot hard to grip due to this. Once that was cleaned up and taken care of, the fun began and I actually found the Pilot to be very enjoyable. Fleshlight’s exclusive SuperSkin material is very soft and slick as well when lube is applied.The textured interior of the Flight Pilot’s sleeve gives and incredible sensation when using. I have not used a lot of strokers in my life (approximately four, now counting this one) but this definitely the best quality one I’ve ever used.

The Fleshlight Flight Pilot’s design

Fleshlight Flight Pilot The Fleshlight Flight Pilot’s design

The design of the Fleshlight Flight Pilot is the only area that I really have any problem with the product at all. The Fleshlight Flight Pilots outer casing can become very slippery if lube accidentally gets on it. Aside from this minor issue, I found the Pilot to be very well designed. It has a shape that fits very comfortably in my grip.

How was it to use the Fleshlight Flight Pilot?

Fleshlight Flight Pilot How was it to use the Fleshlight Flight Pilot?

The Fleshlight Flight Pilot is extremely simple to use. It has a very straightforward design that even someone who has never used a stroker can pick up and use with ease. It’s as simple as open the top cap, lubricate , and enjoy!

Delving into the Quality of the Fleshlight Flight Pilot

Fleshlight Flight Pilot Delving into the Quality of the Fleshlight Flight Pilot

Fleshlight has become one of the most prominent names in sex toys for penis owners to the point where some people use the name “Fleshlight” to describe any stroker, even those of other brands. Fleshlight’s Flight Pilot is yet another example of the brand’s commitment to quality. It is very durable and holds up over time, does not collect lint like other silicone strokers, and is easy to clean.

Breaking Down the Cost of the Fleshlight Flight Pilot

Fleshlight Flight Pilot Breaking Down the Cost of the Fleshlight Flight Pilot

The official Fleshlight website lists the Fleshligh Flight Pilot for $54.99. I personally feel like nearly 60 dollars for a manual stroker with no sucking, twisting, warming, or vibration is a bit much. Nevertheless, The Fleshlight Flight Pilot is an afforadble product from a reputable brand in penis toys.

Performance

Fleshlight Flight Pilot Performance

The Fleshlight Flight Pilot preforms AMAZINGLY! I hadn’t tried it out since I first received it so I decided to try it out again before writing this section and it preforms amazing. I had forgotten how good it was. The lube and grip issue mentioned in a previous section was not an issue this time and that allowed for me to enjoy the experience so much more. The level of suction can be adjusted to the user’s preference by tightening, loosening, or removing the back cap.

Packaging: A Testament to Quality?

Fleshlight Flight Pilot Packaging: A Testament to Quality?

The Fleshlight Flight Pilot comes packaged in a small box that displays the product on the front. Included with the Pilot were instructions for use, product detail information, and a sample pack of Fleshlight's own brand of personal lubricant, which I must say I was really impressed with the quality of!

How to care for the materials of the Fleshlight Flight Pilot

Fleshlight Flight Pilot How to care for the materials of the Fleshlight Flight Pilot

The inner sleeve of the Flight Pilot is made of Fleshlight’s patented 100% phthalate-free SuperSkin™ material, which is a proprietary blend of thermoplastic elastomer, or TPE. The outer casing is a hard, durable plastic casing. It is solid black and very discrete in design. Both the inner sleeve and the outer casing are easy to clean with water, antibacterial soap or toy cleaner, and air drying.

Special feature

Fleshlight Flight Pilot Special feature

The special feature of the Fleshlight Flight Pilot is its adjustable back cap where the user can control the level of airflow in the Flight Pilot. The tighter the cap, the greater the degree of of “suction” it has. To be clear, The Fleshligh Flight Pilot does NOT suck the user on its own. Suction in this case refers to tightness due to no or limited airflow from the cap. Me personally, I prefer the cap completely off on the back of the Flight Pilot. This makes for a more comfortable stroke in my opinion.

FAQ

Are strokers and Fleshlights the same?
Strokers are products with an opening at the end to insert the penis and is used to stroke and stimulate the penis. Fleshlight is a very popular and reputable brand of strokers and, as such, often gets used as a general term for any stroker.
Are all strokers basically the same?
In terms of how to use them, yes. In terms of the quality experience the user will get from them, no. The Fleshlight Flight Pilot is of noticeably better quality than any other stroker I’ve used in the past.
Is the Flight Pilot worth the cost?
If you have the money to spend on it, yes it is. It is of great quality, textured interior, and easy to clean. If funds are limited, then no. I will continue to try other strokers as well but I do not think $60 for a manual stroker is necessary in order to find a good quality one.

Instructions - Manual
