Rules 

Keep the red dot centered with the joystick or with the cursor keys. Caution, you may encounter different versions of this test during your screening. The control of one or both axes may be reversed. That's why the test on our website changes the axis controls from one session to another.

Example 

Red dot - Airline pilot psychometric test online on Pilotest
As much as possible, center the red dot in the middle of the target. We advise you to calibrate your joystick so as to use the rotation around the vertical axis to move the dot laterally. That is the mode used on the day of the exam.

Timing 

This test lasts 3.5 minutes.

About gamepads 

For your comfort you can practice this test either with a real gamepad, or with the virtual on-screen gamepad, or with your keyboard. However, in order to get the best of your training we do recommend that you acquire a joystick in order to recreate in the most realistic manner the conditions you will face on exam day.
See this part of the FAQ regarding gamepad calibration.
