March 10, 20215 yr Not sure if this is the place to ask this, so forgive me if it isn't. Am thinking of getting the Honeycomb Yoke & Throttle, but can't find any info on how long the usb cables are. Also, if they're not long enough for what I need, can they be extended somehow? Any info would be appreciated. Thanx.

Yes, you can buy a USB extension cable, I bought one and plugged it into my PC then into a 3 port USB hub and then plugged my Alpha and Bravo into that.

March 10, 20215 yr I recommend a powered hub. I have rudders, Track IR, headphones, power for portable monitor, etc. in that hub. Dave Wadsworth i9 13900K 5.5Ghz 64G DDR6000 nVidia 4090 Win 11 22H2 Pro P3DV5.4 ASP/ASCA Pilot2ATC FS2Crew/TIR5/CP

Visualize where you will position the hub in regard to your flying environment and your controls, and look for a hub where the power supply lead and the USB cable from your computer arrive to the hub well, and where the USB leads for your controls lead naturally from the hub to those controls. Somewhat dark, but mine is there between the left speaker and the base of the monitor.

March 11, 20215 yr I don’t recall the lengths of the included usb c cables but they were decently long if I recall. Being that they are standard usb c to regular usb you can always go buy much longer ones if needed.
