Description

Suppose you turn the selector knob on the left-hand side to VS (Vertical Speed) you can increase/decrease the VS value with the right-hand knob and of course, the X-Plane aircraft will correspond in accordance what you select. And last but not least, there’s an AP button on the far right to engage/disengage the AP. In the configurator I went to Profiles --> Import Profiles and I imported the profiles I needed from the honeycomb_profilesfolder inside the XP11 AFCBridgefolder There’s one more thing I would like to bring to your attention and that is using User Profiles and linking these user profiles to a certain aircraft. Lets go for an example; as you can see on the above GA related screenshot, it’s now all assigned to the “User Profile”. A better idea is to save it under a different name like GA Twin Engine.

Next, what when I use another add-on twin engine GA aircraft like the Nimbus Islander or perhaps the Just Flight/Thranda Duchess 76 or the Thranda Beaver? Keep in mind that when it comes to the AP assignments that this could make a difference if the AP is dedicated modeled by the developer. That said, I did first a flight short test with the Nimbus Islander. It seems that all assigned AP functions work with this aircraft, but when I tried to do the same during another flight with the Just Flight/Thranda Duchess 76, the basic functions like FLAPS UP/DOWN lever and GEAR UP/DOWN handle worked, but the AP didn’t respond do what I expected. This is probably due to different assigned X-Plane AP commands versus the default AP commands. Suppose I want to change the current HDG – so lets say this is HDG HOLD – I turn the left-hand selector knob to HDG, and turn the right-hand knob in a left/right direction. The HDG bug will change which can be seen on the B58 HSI. This is then actually the HDG SEL mode/function of the AP. Although this is just a HDG and VS example, it works for all other AP buttons/modes the same way. And how does it feel or how do the selector knob feel when you rotate them? It feels all solid. When you press the buttons to engage or disengage that particular mode, you feel what you’re doing and it also feels as decent quality. And as mentioned earlier in a post, if I import the file or I copy one and rename it in the file structure it works. If I create within the configurator from another setting and rename it, all bindings are gone.

Additional Features on the BravoWe have been made aware of a video by the YouTuber SimHanger, which details the full config process. For a good understanding, this is how the setup looks on your Bravo. You are free to use any other axis you look but this will translate in other AXIS bound in MSFS. And this brings me to this 2nd Honeycomb hardware review. Many years ago I received from Saitek the Pro Flight Throttle, but I can tell you already that although the Honeycomb name is similar, it’s such a massive and impressive device I’d never expected, but more about that later. Regarding the warrantee there’s something different then with the Alpha Flight Controls which has a 5-year warranty on the tension belt, both Honeycomb devices have a 2-year overall limited warranty. And again I say …. is that good? No, that’s excellent! The Bravo Throttle Quadrant – Part I I depends a bit on how you start up your aircraft, but I assume you did it the same way as I thus with a cold and dark situation. Then you can see one of more annunciator lights illuminated on the light panel in front of the levers. How many and which lights are ON, that depends on the aircraft type you chose. When you’ve applied electrical power to the aircraft, you’ll also see the green LANDING GEAR down lights. Some words about the lights at the annunciator panel. You can’t assign these yourself, so you have to accept what’s illuminated and hope that this is correct for the aircraft you’ve loaded.

This review has become a bit longer than expected. Since the start I collected a lot of additional information that resulted in a lot of enthusiasm, but also a lengthy review. Due to the length of this review and the chapters/sections about the Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant, I’ve decided to include a Table of Contents. I hope you’ll enjoy this review that covers my own explorations of this well designed, durable and looking great Honeycomb product. Table Of Contents Full details on how to install and (optionally) configure it, as well as all the source code for the tool, are available at GitHub:

As others have said here, this is a no-brainer. If you have the Bravo Throttle, you really need this. I've had my throttle for a day and I've already made several changes to the annunciator panel. Seriously, if you read the instructions and can understand boolean logic, you can do it. General Aviation Levers with Functional TOGA (Go Around) Button for multiple aircraft configurations Microsoft Flight Simulator worked straight out of the box and there was no need to install any drivers as they are part of the simulator. Many of the controller assignments in MFS were automatically loaded, so it appears there are already some aircraft profiles in place. It is still early days but according to Honeycomb, more aircraft profiles will be made available moving forward. It is still of course possible to create your own custom profiles within the simulator. I have a dual installation of XP11 & 12 (till all my addon aircraft are compatible). After an initial frustration I managed to make the XP11 profiles work in XP12, but it is a bit quirky. Here's how I made it work:
