About this deal

Compared to the hat switch on the Saitek/Logitech Pro yoke, give me the Saitek switch over the one fitted on this yoke.

Internally the 8-bit potentiometers have been replaced with 12-bit Hall Effect sensors, increasing the resolution of the pitch and roll axis by 400%, resulting in crisp and precise control inputs. if you’re not happy with the speed or precision of the trim as default, it’s hard to adjust without having an external program like FSUIPC or SPAD. Honeycomb has taken an already excellent yoke and made it even better, adding Xbox compatibility along with an updated design, a spring-loaded ignition switch and Hall Effect sensors.Subscribe to our Specials Newsletter Keep up-to-date on the latest pilot and aircraft supplies to hit the market and find out about our great monthly specials by subscribing to our newsletter. The base houses a backlit switch panel with controls for the battery master, alternator, avionics as well as five external light switches. For Thicker Tabletops, A Large 3M Micro-Suction Pad That Produces 40Lbs Of Tensile Strength Can Be Used For A Clamp Free Solution. If Honeycomb set out to hit a middle ground market place between budget and high end system then it has certainly met its goal.

I agree that it’s not really the best but unfortunately there aren’t really many hardware options for trim wheels in general let alone ones that implement the trim as axis instead of an encoder. Ok, you’ll likely be pretty convinced about the aesthetics and durability of the Honeycomb Alpha Flight Controls XPC, but what about the actual usage of the yoke when flying in Microsoft Flight Simulator? Honeycomb Aeronautical have been redefining the standards for quality home flight simulation products and their Alpha and Bravo flight controls provide a complete flight simulation solution. Using universal mounting points and brackets, the Alpha Flight Controls are compatible with other Honeycomb and Saitek products.It looks cool, but it’s nice to have the option to disable the red LED lights for those who prefer a more discrete look.

It moves around 5mm back or forth until a movement is registered in the simulator or on the Windows calibration screen. The Alpha yoke features an innovative dual mounting kit consisting of two heavy-duty metal clamps to secure the unit to a desktop. It features a NEW front grill design, a full 180° yoke rotation with upgraded hall effect sensors to provide smooth precision with no center detent.The only part where the joystick may still be useful is for rudder controls (and I am still using it for throttle). Moreover, I found it did an excellent job in capturing the control inputs of real aircraft, both in normal flight and when pushing the flight envelope such as during steep turns or stalls, which require a lot of back pressure. The left handle features one 8-way hat switch, two Vertical 2-way rocker switches, a button and a Push to Talk Button.
