Honeycomb Alpha Flight Controls Yoke with Honeycomb Aeronautical Bravo Throttle Quadrant Bundle (2 Items)

The only way to fly. Perfect for helping you keep your hands off the keyboard and on the controls. As realistic as possiable.

I'm using this in X Plane 11 after returning a Saitek Flight Yoke System and Switch Panel. I'm loving the full-range roll axis and fully configurable throttle switches. The difference between slight roll doing nothing (because Saitek disables roll near the center) and being subtle (because it's a very small input) is amazing. Being able to assign switches in the sim OR with the MFG-SUPPLIED utility is everything I expected the Saitek to be (and, sadly, still isn't) when I first wanted it over a decade ago. Right now, I'm using a mixture of in-sim and plugin-enabled functions to set the parking brake with a switch or hold regular brake pressure at the throttle detent. They even re-engage when I release the toe brakes. I configured the L/R gear lights (gear are fixed) for amber when breaking lightly and red when set full. I even managed to get something like coarse adjustment on the AP knob, though that was super tedious and doesn't work as well as I'd like. The configuration utility still needs some improvement, probably including a firmware update, but is already light-years ahead of Saitek and the third-party plugin required to configure their hardware. I'm confident this hardware will only become even better with updates, rather than stagnating for a decade like the competition.

First, plug in the yoke and throttle then do the driver update. That's the only way the axis levers will bind correctly. Took me a few hours of messing around to finally figure it out. Even after watching many "How to" Videos. The throttles are smaller than I though they would be but the entire throttle quadrant is huge. I use it for MSFS which can save profiles within the game so it makes it easy to bind different things for various types of aircraft. I setup a 4 engine complex aircraft and flew around for a few hours. Yoke control is great, best yoke I've used so far. Pros: Smooth axis movement on all controls, no dead zones, Plenty of switches on both yoke and throttle, Having reverse thrust levels is the best pro ever, especially for each engine. Cons: The throttle switch's are in a position that with the throttles advanced you wont be able to reach the switches. Landing gear lights seem to work when they feel like it. Flap Lever doesn't have gates, its just a smooth axis from top to bottom. Overall, I'm impressed with the setup. Hopefully I get hours of use out them.

Very high quality parts and feel. Just plug and play (though you can fully customize every button and lever). It was easy to affix to a desk or surface. These do have some weight to them and feel like they will last a very long time.

Does not work. Will be returning units. Made three attempts via their communication board to contact them for assistance to no avail. Am boxing them up as we speak.

Very good mid-tier flight controls. Highly configurable with a lot of user support on YouTube and Discord. I may consider an L shaped type c USB plug to minimize the chance of bending the plugs. They stand out pretty far in the back making them easy to bend. The yoke is sprung heavy and requires more force than it should to push the nose over. I've flown many real planes and none feel like this. Good product so far and decent value for the price.

Excellent in all regards!

I've had the Bravo yoke and throttle set for several months now. I have been sing it with no issue since purchase. The yoke feels good ad the throttle quadrant works great. You get a lot with this setup. My only gripe is the on the yoke, the elevator movement ( pulling back on the yoke ) is too stiff as that control movement is controlled with a 4lbs band where the aileron ( left to right movement ) uses a 2.5lbs band I believe. It would be nice to have that smaller band for the elevator which at this point, I have not seen any available.

I have using flight sims regularly since MSFS98, mainly using cheap joysticks. About 5 years ago I switched to the Saitek (Logitech) flight yoke. While the Saitek served it purpose, it just didn't scratch that itch I was looking for. After much debating I decided to bite the bullet and purchase the Honeycomb Alpha and Bravo. It was a night and day difference! The Alpha (Yoke) is much more precise and has a much smoother feel. I have seen a few people complain that the spring for pitch control is too stiff, but personally I find it perfect. However, I have not flown an actual aircraft, so I cannot speak to how accurate the feel is. For the Bravo (Throttle), I cant say enough good things about it. The swappable levers allows you to have a certain level of immersion for both GA and Commercial aircraft, and the adjustable tension lets you fine tune the feel so that it is just right. There is definitely a bit of setup to do in sim to get all the buttons working how you want, but there are many youtube videos on this. Out of the box, I had a little trouble getting the annunciator and gear lights to work with MSFS2020 and 2024, but that is a problem with the sim, not the hardware. In the end, I used the program SPAD.neXt, and now it is fully functional. Sure, Honeycomb products have a higher price tag, but from my experience, you get what you pay for. If you have the money to spare, I would highly recommend it.

EXCELENTE PRODUCTO

Mounting sticky pad has been used upon receiving. Did not even receive the throttle quadrant which should have been included since this is a set.

I am not a computer geek and have little experience in this kind of setting up this product with whe many different videos on how to do so,they must think everyone has a degree in computer sciences , I need help
