The Honeycomb Bundle (Yoke & Throttle) includes the Honeycomb - Alpha Flight Controls and the Bravo Throttle Quadrant!
Buy the Honeycomb Bundle and save! In the bundle you get the two package components cheaper than buying them separately.
Honeycomb Aeronauticals Alpha Flight Controls is one of the most advanced yokes currently available for PC flight simulation. It was designed to fulfil the requirements of both flight simulation users and student or full-time pilots. The aerospace grade internal components feature realistic ergonomics for a true flying experience.
The high-quality mechanics offer a realistic full 180° turn radius with a self-centring mechanism with no dead zone to control the aileron. Lenghtwise, the steel shaft allows for 15 cm of travel. The mechanism is all metal for durability.
The Yoke has a switch panel with master, alternator, avionics, and light switches. It is equipped with red LED backlight to easily operable at night. Furthermore, it includes an ignition switch as can be found in piston engine aircrafts.
On the left handle you will find two buttons, two 2-way hat switches, and a push to talk button, while the right handle features two 2-way and an 8-way switch as well as a button.
Features:
- Aerospace grade internal components
- Realistic ergonomics
- 180° turn radius, self-centring
- Switch panel with backlight
- Numerous switches and buttons
- Durable construction
- 2-year warranty
- Mounting points and brackets for other Honeycomb and Saitek products
- Designed and developed in California by pilots and aerospace engineers
With the Bravo Throttle Quadrant, Honeycomb Aeronautical presents a universally usable all-in-one cockpit system. The throttle quadrant allows for configurations from small single-engine planes to four-engine airliners. It supports various cockpit systems like autopilot, annunciator panel, gear switch, flaps, and trim.
The thrust levers can be configured for small single- and multi-engine planes with separate flap switches. For use in an airliner you can choose a configuration with two or four thrust levers, levers for spoiler and flaps. This will then also allow you to control the thrust reverser.
The autopilot panel includes the usual functions as can be found in commercial and GA aircraft. The annunciator panel with 14 signal lights shows the most important status and warning messages of the board systems.
Additional features are provided by the gear switch, the trim wheel, and 7 freely programmable switches so the user does not need to reach out to the keyboard as often.
Features:
- Throttle quadrant for GA planes and airliners
- Configuration options for single and multiple engines
- Configuration options for piston and jet engines
- Thrust reverser for two- and four-engine aircraft
- Extensive autopilot
- Annunciator panel with 14 lights
- Gear switch and trim wheel
- 7 programmable keys
- 2-year warranty
- Mounting points and brackets for other Honeycomb and Saitek products
- Designed and developed in California by pilots and aerospace engineers

Honeycomb Config Tool V2 | Version 2.2.0 | only x64 simulator platforms, no FSX/P3D v3 support:
- Reworked and streamlined user interface (everything profile related is now found under "Profiles")
- Reworked profile loading logic to prevent automatic re-loading of the same profile
- Customizing names of press- and release events in Configurator does no longer need confirmatory "return"
- Added a profile mapping summary option (.txt) in Configurator
- Added customizable delay for normal/fast repeat in milliseconds on a per press-event basis (default 600ms)
- Added a Configurator-sim-profile-activation-link, so the additional "Reload Bindings" from the sim menu is not necessary anymore
- P3D v4/5:
- Fixed bug where ">"-prefixed variables from legacy profiles where not accepted anymore
- X-Plane:
- Fixed bug where floating point values for relative variables (e.g. +=0.1) could not be assigned via the Configurator
- Fixed bug where command-/datarefs could not be added without a value
- Fixed bug where some information could be parsed unintentionally into the X-Plane log file
Honeycomb Config Tool V2 | Version 2.1.0:
Important: Before you uninstall the old version, please be sure to export your profiles to a save place!
- Fixed bug where sim could potentially crash on exit due to device dis-/reconnect
- Fixed mix-up for aileron and rudder trim assignments
- Refined in-sim missing profile message logic
- Removed "Unit" field in Configurator (now part of "Variable" name, if necessary)
- Added multi profile import in Configurator
- Added logic to advise for non-existant variables/datarefs/commandrefs
- Added "Master" LED functionality, so all LEDs can e.g. stay off when there is no electricity available
- Added "Reload All Bindings" menu item
- Added ability to add multiple press and release events and name them
- Added ability to add relative variables values with optional boundaries (prefixed by +=/-= in value field)
- Added three step repeat functionality (Normal - Delayed Normal - Delayed Fast)
- FSX/P3D:
- *PMDG only: for correct functioning re-download current revised PMDG profiles*
- Fixed bug where local variables without unit could not be read out as ConditionVariable
- Fixed bug with "ENG OIL PRESSURE" in default Bravo throttle profile
- Added logic to advise for non-existant local variables in profiles ("yes" to keep using this variable, "no" to discard this variable, "cancel" to stop checking)
-> Profiles are loaded on a 10 second delay after aircraft change to allow for correct initialization of all local variables
- X-Plane:
- Fixed bug with wrong indexing for "sim/flightmodel2/gear/deploy_ratio" in default Bravo throttle profile (gear LEDs)
- Fixed bug where custom commandRefs/dataRefs could not be found on inital automatic loading
- Fixed Windows Installer Bugs
