IMPORTANT NOTICE: Due to extremely high demand for flight simulation hardware, an extended lead time applies on this unit. We are accepting pre-orders and will fill the orders sequentially based on time and date of order (first come, first serve). We are anticipating early 2021 for any new orders placed for this unit.Item qualifies for free ground shipping via UPS (Lower 48 USA Only - Additional Items May Void Promotion) |
Outer box ALMOST shows evidence of shipping, inner box is pristine. Unit arrived in mint condition, complete and intact. All in all, a fantastic product, GREAT value and well worth the wait. Thank you.
Good product. Better service from aircraft spruce!
Out of the box, there were a few minor software issues, and a few things that needed to be configured that were not documented in the included literature. This led to multiple uncontrollable crashes initially, and made me wonder if the unit was defective. (It wasn’t, it just needed to be properly configured) Thank goodness for YouTube !!! After watching a handful of videos... I got the software patch from Honeycomb installed that enabled the lights in MSFS 2020.. I created the separate profiles needed for the different throttle configurations i. e. GA Simple Single Engine, GA Complex Single Engine, GA Complex Twin Engine, Commercial 2 Engine, Commercial 3 Engine, Commercial 4 Engine, TBN930, etc. I fixed the auto pilot VS configuration issue with the Left Selector knob. I re-assigned the redundant panel switches with the Alpha Yoke unit. I learned how to use the Auto Pilot unit within the simulation. I assigned the rudder axis to the yoke roll axis (in addition to the ailerons), and the brakes to the yoke pitch axis (in Addition to the elevator), which eliminated the need for rudder pedals until the Charlie unit becomes available. Once these issues were all resolved, I can say that this unit has fully completed my Flight Simulation control needs, and has completely transformed my Flight Simulation experience! (This last comment can NOT be over emphasized!) The hardware is excellent quality, and the comprehensiveness of the controls make it an outstanding value! Hats off to Honeycomb for two amazing products. Both are highly, highly recommended!
This is a fantastic piece of gear. I cant believe I even considered buying a cheaper one and am super glad I didnt. It is strange to me that Honeycomb doesnt provide more information about it through. I had to watch various YouTube videos to learn how to make the lights work and how to really set it up the best way. Still, this is a must have!
Outstanding product. I have been enjoying it to a great degree. Since I am a real world pilot as well as a simulation pilot, I appreciate the fact that Aircraft Spruce offers products of this type to its clients.
Yes, it does not require the yoke to be the Honeycomb Alpha. It will still work as a throttle.
