Sidestick controller grips are provided with a base, an elongate column grip extending upwardly from the base, a head at an upper end portion of the grip column, and a thumb rest surface extending laterally and upwardly relative to the column grip. The thumb rest surface may be supported by a concave outwardly extending support wall which joins the thumbrest surface at a generally serpentine edge which may extend generally outwardly convexly from a lower region thereof at the column grip to a convex apex region, and then extends from the apex region generally upwardly and concavely to an upper region thereof at the head. The thumbrest surface may be concave to facilitate comfort. The head of the sidestick controller grip may include a split face surface defining inboard and outboard face surfaces disposed laterally adjacent to one another. The inboard face surface may be disposed at an elevation that is lower than the outboard face surface with inboard and outboard pushbuttons projecting outwardly therefrom, respectively.
