November 27, 20223 yr Anyone using the Boeing yoke with honeycomb throttles ? Instead of Boeing throttles? Thoughts thanks mike
November 28, 20223 yr From what I’ve seen the thrustmaster boeing throttle quadrant isn’t very good/is rather flimsy. I have the standalone yoke which is excellent. I’m using another throttle solution from fsxthrottle right now (bought before the honeycomb bravo was out), which is somewhat similar in theory and is a good experience. Set up can be a little tricky on the bravo (especially for third party addons) since it has many lights, knobs, buttons, and axes.

I like the Honeycomb TQ. I originally had the Honeycomb yoke as well but did not like it at all which led me to buy the TM Boeing yoke...

November 28, 20223 yr The TM Boeing yoke seems to have a giant deadzone in the center, which is a no go for precise approach flights. This makes it not better than the old crappy Saitek Yoke.

November 28, 20223 yr But whoever uses them - can you say how much is the deadzone when you move it around the center. Do the needles move?

Regarding the flaps with that add-on: are the detents precise? In other words, do the flaps move with each detent? i9 9900K at 4.9ghz, MSI RTX 3080, 32 G RAM, (3) 1TB SSD

There is a very small deadzone in the center itself, but nothing like in the video you showed (in my opinion). The "Default" profile has a 5% deadzone set by the way. I am trying to make a video tonight UK time and share it later.

November 28, 20223 yr @Paladin2005 OK, as promised here is the video. There is a bit of a delay between the two sources, but you should be able to see that the deadzone isn't as bad as in the video you posted above. Hope that helps.
