It literally looks so cheap and brittle. Looks like and old Fisher Price toy.

New to flight simulator controls and was looking for a flight yoke. Thought the 180* Rotation actually meant 180* on each side. Never the less, amazing review and product.

Most underrated channel!

Great video. What are you using for rudder peddles?

The setup at 07:09 is exactly how I have mine except that I have the Saitek Cessna yoke which does have full 180° movement but is getting a bit too long in the tooth now. I bungy cord modified it a few years ago and that's great but I'm having to clean the tracks on the potentiometers more and more and despite the smoothness of the yoke action the actual control is becoming somewhat erratic. I ordered my Alpha today and thanks to the wonders of that well-known webtailer, I'll be getting it tomorrow. I suppose I'll have to dig around in the loft for the Cessna yoke box now!

How would you see the button on the yoke when you're wearing a headset...

If you see this note... can someone tell me if you must have the dual mounting solution or is there a way to mount the alpha and bravo to desk without this and the clamps. They appear to be sold out. TIA.

Hello, is it possible to combine the Yoke of Honeycomb with the Logitech Throttle Quadrant ?

Hello. I am starting out into the sim and am deciding on my flight control.I was settling to get the Turtle Beach Flight Stick and have read many reviews on it. One big issue is the stiffness in the centre of the control. I don't think this will be an issue for me and this devices looks very nice over all the others same price range of controllers I have seen. Thinking more into this. I may just want a controller that almost resembles how a controller actually is on an aeroplane. So a yoke style device would be more ideal. Honeycomb from the looks of it does look very nice. I will be using it with the Microsoft Flight Simulator. My question is. Will I be able to use just this controller alone to fly any type of aircraft beside an airliner? I will not be able to get the rudder or the throttle extensions any time soon or will not be getting them period. Also, I don't want to invest and have many controllers as a collection. I just want one. Lastly, to all those honeycomb owners, have the white button fell off or broke on you. The flimsiness does look heartbroken for the price.

I got the logi yoke. It felt super cheap and the deflection was annoying on it. So I go this today so thanks for the thorough review!

Hi what type of computer would I need? What processor, memory or graphics required? Could you recommend a computer from Amazon that already meets those parameters

I bought a second hand Alfa yoke but the RJ45s connector was missing. Can I simply use an ordinary PC Ethernet with 2 RJ45s? I don’t have a warranty anyway. If not what is the wiring for this please. I can make it myself. I can’t anything on the internet. Thank you.

I was shopping for a yoke right at the beginning of the pandemic or actually like two months before. The honeycomb was just about to release and I was thinking it was worth the extra cash over the logitech. But it was just no way to get it. The logitech had a estimated delivery time of around five month and the honeycomb was like ”maybe a year or more”... So basically I went with logitech just to have something at all. :) Now it is harder to motivate an upgrade. I still want the honeycomb but I mean, the logitech still works. Maybe it could have some kind of unfortunate ”accident”... :)

Man .. my dream sim dash is like .. a lot of money T.T I really like those radio peripherals.

That play on the yoke is very troubling, it will only get worse? Is there too much clearance in the bushes or bearinbs? I wouldn't buy this item if it wobbles about like demonstrated?

I did my flight training in a Cessna 152 and have flown a 172, 182 and a Caravan. The yoke feels very similar to a Cessna yoke.

Really wish someone would do a 6dof space yoke.

Hello… nice review as usually. Do you have any idea when will it be available for Xbox? Best regards…

I sent my Alpha and Bravo back. I decided to use a CH Eclipse simple yoke and VR headset so as to access the cockpit AP systems. The problem with using a hardware quadrant is it is always a compromise. Better to use the real controls of each aircraft that are in the cockpit.

i had Logitech for onw day and did not impress me at all .I purchased on the next day this honeycomb and it s no comparation ! it s absolutely brilliant . i returned the Logitech on the next day

I'm pretty sold on this yoke, as it seem of high quality.

I have the ch product yoke that i found for $6 used..and it is really good with built in power , propeller and mixtures, gear and flapsand lot of buttons. I bought the ch pro pedals which are very good. The bravo throttle quadrant seems very tempting and really pro. I would buy that before buying the alpha yoke, as it guve multi prop engine and boeing throttle, as well as autopilot and lot of buttons configurable, gears and flaps and especially a trim which would make more easy to manipulate inside the cockpit in vr.

I believe there are couple of products that provide force feedback, Yoko yoke and the Brunner.

Aaaah, the 8 way has "warthog throttle syndrome". Always weird when the difference between premium in price is a couple of bucks for a component like that. Probably even cheaper for a manufacturer.

Premium feeling?? I mean the Honeycomb feels better than the Logitech for sure but it is still cheap plastic. It feels to me like the sort of plastic that is going to get sticky and soft in a couple of years personally. I also hate the mounting solution for the Honeycomb. The rear screw down holders just never seem to get decent friction and always seems like they are loose no matte how much I turn them.

While the 180 degrees of rotation is nice, the elevator throw is much too short in realistic terms and is also way too stiff compared to any real aircraft I've ever flown. The stiffness may have been put there to lessen over controlling the elevator due to the very short throw. I always used to wonder why aircraft manufacturers typically put the ignition switch on the left hand side of the yoke unlike cars. Once I tried to use it, I got the answer. You operate the throttle at the same time you turn the ignition switch!!! Having to reach across the yoke with the left hand is more than awkward, but I guess Honeycomb is as clueless about this issue as I was.

That makes so much sense

i think the deflection and delay turn has been happens in almost all yokes, i still stick with CH yoke cheap and the best as far as concern, i would not recommend saitek yoke real thing does not center itself !

Bought the Logitech and used it once, definitely found myself over controlling due to it only have 45 degrees of travel left and right, going to sell it and buy a honeycomb

I subbed to this guy for just 2 days, and i have one simple question. Why is he so underrated :(

The Honeycomb yoke is defiantly the best yoke around but at $450 + another $400+ for the throttle controls here in Aus is a bit too much for a casual flight sim gamer like me so I mite just go for the Logitech Pro for $230 instead

Which is still an excellent yoke, I did a review of that also and am planning to do a comparison video of the two. Either way it’s a lot better than a keyboard or controller.

Great video. I have a technical question for you: if I buy a Honeycomb Alpha, could I plug a Logitech Throttle Quadrant in some way to a PC? I know there is impossible to connect to the Honeycomb, and the Honeycomb Bravo is too much expensive for me. Thank you in advance

Yes, if you buy a Logitech throttle quadrant you can plug this into a USB port. However, the throttle quadrant that comes with the Logitech yoke is different from the standalone Logitech throttle quadrant and HAS to plug into the Logitech yoke. So if you have the standalone throttle quadrant from Logitech you’ll be fine 👍

This is a decent Cessna yoke for people who enjoy trying out the wonderful C172. This is an appropriate aircraft to start out in for real pilots and simulation. I fly the Zibo 737 in XPlane 11. It’s a fine simulator with a fully functioning cockpit and programmable FMC. I find the honeycomb yoke badly lacking for this type of sim, both in pitch and roll. I plan to switch to the Boeing yoke in March when the yoke can be purchased separately from the throttles. The Boeing yoke won’t be perfect either, simulations never are, but I’m hopeful it will be better for a jet transport than the honeycomb

A couple of months ago I bought the logitech Yoke and Throttle for £55 from amazon warehouse (30% discount promotion on top of standard discount for being a "Like new" product) . I did find it to be a big improvement to using a joystick and it certainly increased the immersion. However both the yoke and throttle unit feel like a toy, and the pitch axis on the yoke just didn't seem very smooth to me. So, I bought the Honeycomb Alpha Yoke and Bravo Throttle Quadrant for £450. That's about 8x more expensive! Is it worth that premium? I'd say that depends on what you want. In terms of value for money, no. Logitech wins. But the feeling of quality of the honeycomb products is, to me, worth it. It feels less like I'm using a toy, and more like I'm flying a real plane.

Update this with 2 mag switches, forcefeedback and progressive servoes for pitch/roll in reference to speed, and ill gladly pay £500 for this.. until that happens, ill keep my logitech "toy" yoke

After spending some time using my friend's Honeycomb, my opinion of it is that it's a very nicely built piece of junk. How ever well it might be built, it does nothing that that adds any utility or realism to flight simulation and is far less pleasant to use than my 10+ year old CH Products Yoke. My friend doesn't seem to be very thrilled with it either since he's in the process of selling it.
