Need Help With Honeycomb Bravo Throttle — Axis Problems

Featured Replies

I finally got the new Honeycomb throttle quadrant and I'm trying to get it working.

I'm limited to FS2020 and X-Plane 11.53 at the moment as the NVidia 2080 in my flight sim computer died and I had to put in an older AMD GPU as a backup and P3D won't run on it. 😞

Both X-Plane and FS2020 recognize the Bravo and I can map the axes to match the TPM functions (I mostly fly GA twin engine aircraft like the Cessna 310, B58 Baron, and Seneca V) — but I can't get the axes data values ranges right.  Some are dead, some act as if they were just on/off 0 or 100%, others jump from 0 to 50% then slide 100%, and so on.  They should all put out smoothly from 0 to 100% instead of having dead patches or jumps in between.

I'm trying to find out if this is a calibration problem that I can fix or if this means my unit is defective.

I've seen some videos about the #2 engine prop axis being dead in FS2020 and how to address that but not much else.

Perhaps you can start by testing the Bravo with the default Windows tools, to see whether the raw values are correct. There are also a few joystick test programs you could try.
