I have the Honeycomb Alpha Yoke, but haven't opened the box yet. But was curious to know if I would be able to fly with the yoke only, without a set of dedicated rudder pedals and throttle quadrant while I wait for the Honeycomb Bravo to be available.

You will need rudder assist for takeoff and your turns will wallow a bit and tend to be unco-ordinated, but you will be able to fly.

Crosswinds landings - not so much - just fly a preset with no wind.

You have been quite active here for quite some time.  What have you done in the past for rudder control?  This is posted in the MSFS area but in this respect MSFS is not much different than previous simulations. 

I've been flying with just an xbox controller and a logitech extreme 3d pro flight stick. The Honeycomb Bravo is not available so the only thing I have is the Yoke and was hoping I could use that for the time being to fly with until the other stuff becomes available.

I find a throttle quad and rudder pedals indispensable for proper flight of anything bigger than a small aircraft.

You could fly with no controls at all, until you run out of altitude or airspeed. 😉

You could use the Honeycomb yoke along with the throttle control and rudder function on the Logitech extreme 3d pro flight stick while waiting for the Honeycomb Bravo.

Thanks for reassuring that! 🙂

You would probably also want to set up a button or key to activate the brakes.

entirely possible(I don't have pedals) and it works fine but many don't fly yoke only especially if you're going for the realistic feel.

Well it's not available where I'm at. And thanks for the great work arounds!

When you finally have a full compliment of quality controls flight simulation will be a total new world!

Yep!

There are videos on youtube that show folks flying simulators with their keyboards, so I think you'll be just fine.😄

A few years ago, when I took this hobby "more seriously" I owned a set of CH yoke and pedals. I found this whole setup cumbersome, and eventually came to the
realization that having some chintzy piece of hardware under your desk makes you look a little, well, childish.....😄

Now I have a cheap Thrustmaster HOTAS - works for me.
