General discussion regarding computer hardware

Hi, I just received the new Honeycomb Foxtrot Take-Off Kit (PC) that included the previously released Foxtrot Aviation Stick and a new "small" throttle box. There was no documentation provided with the small throttle box so I originally attached it to my PC like the Stick was but MSFS 2024 only showed the Stick. With some messing around I found that the USB C to USB C cable provided with the small throttle was meant to attach the small throttle box to the Stick using the "Hub" port on the Stick. That magically worked and now MSFS2024 shows Foxtrot Take-Off Kit in the Control Settings - hope that helps any other new users. When in Control Settings, there isn't a nice…

I'm having issues connecting my Alpha to my PC. It has been working for a long time, but since 2 weeks my controller isn't working anymore. I've read lot's of same incidents with other users. (https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/honeycomb-alpha-and-bravo-usb-issues/378660) Yes, I tried other USB cables, i've removed the devices in device manager, tried to update drivers.... No luck. I guess with updating my FMC , (WinWing) or Arduino board, perhaps this made my USB board in the yoke faulty. Is there anything I can do? remove the internal processor and replace it? Update with special software? any advice? Thanks all!

Ich habe das Problem das das Ffb das Lenkrad immer in Mittelposition stellt ich habe also ständig die selbe Federkraft im Spiel ohne Spiel egal bei welchem Spiel. Das ist doch nicht normal. In der Regel sollte es doch im Stand gar nicht zurück drehen sondern erst wenn man anfährt so ist rangieren eine Qual. Vielleicht weiß einer Rat?

The Trim Wheel of the Echo Controller sends up to 4 input clicks every single mechanical click. It is totally useless for most assignments this way. Do I have a faulty controller? This should not slip the QA.

I am using Echo Aviation Controller on GeForce Now before it’s supported. Hear’s how… I don’t have a PC good enough to run Microsoft Flight Sim 2024 and I don’t have the money to buy one. But I’ve found that my old laptop can use GeForce Now to run MSFS 24 and it’s good!!! So for a nice minimal setup I bought the Honeycomb Echo Aviation Controller. What a great device! Unfortunately it is not yet supported by GeForce Now (here’s hoping as this would be the best device to use for mobile flight simming). I looked at many solutions like Flexihub that try to send your usb to a cloud desctop but I couldn’t get it to work on GeForce Now. But I found one video suggesting tha…

Hello everyone I discovered that I can't use the 6-engine Bravo throttle quadrant because the MSFS interface only allows for 4-engine use. Is there any step by step instructions for using the bravo throttle quadrant in a 6 engine configuration for the AN 225 and some other multi engine aircraft?

good day i am having trouble with the bravo throttle configurator not showing in my addon menu drop down, i know there have been multiple discussions on this and i have followed them with no result https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/184756-no-honeycomb-add-ons-menu-in-fsxse/ https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/171123-honeycomb-not-showing-in-fsxse-addon-menu/ I've looked at a couple more forum but these were the two that i thought matched my problem, i downloaded the configurator v2.1 from here i edited the dll.xml and when that didn't work i also edited the exe.xml and the game has asked me to run the program and its showing in my fsx.cfg this is what…

When I set the reversers handles on any of the 1, 2, or 4 thruster configurations for jets. They do not register as a button push on any of those. What might be the problem?

I downloaded MSFS 2024 yesterday and the lights on my Honeycomb Bravo throttle stopped working. Everything else works on the Bravo, but no lights work at all. Just wondering if this is happening to anyone else. Does anyone know of a solution?

I recently got a Bravo throttle quadrant and the Airfoil Labs C172 throttle quadrant profile. I noticed that the anunciators seemed a bit off. Master warning didn't light up, parking brake on showed as something else, etc. Yet, when I went into the honeycomb configurator, all the xplane 12 datarefs seemed to be mapped to the right annunciators. I got tired of this and started mapping the byteindex and bitindexes from BFC_Throttle_Config.json and here is what I wound up with: (Note that I tried the Christmas Tree app (https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/files/file/6080-honeycomb-bravo-throttle-christmas-tree-application/) …

Hello guys I just started using 2024 and on my Bravo I cant get the for lack of a better word MCP to work. What I mean is I cant change the heading, alt ias etc etc with the selector knobs. I have AFC bridge installed in my community folder. Here is a view of my exe file. Always worked with 2020. <SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0"> <Descr>Launch</Descr> <Filename>exe.xml</Filename> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad> <Launch.Addon> <Name>ActiveSky utils</Name> <Disabled>F…

Hello everyone, I’m having a serious issue with my Honeycomb Foxtrot joystick on PC and I’m trying to determine whether this is a hardware/firmware defect or something I might be missing. The problem is that the main axes (pitch/roll/yaw) behave in an extremely sensitive, almost binary way. Even with very small physical movement, the axis immediately jumps close to the maximum value, as if it were a digital 0–1 input rather than a smooth analog axis. Important details: This happens not only in MSFS 2024, but also in Windows itself. In the Windows Game Controller panel (joy.cpl), the axis does not move smoothly. It j…

Brand new honeycomb echo controller, not being recognized by Microsoft flight simulator on Xbox

I have the Sierra TPM and the Bravo. After getting the TPM, I installed the latest driver and the TPM lights still do not work, and now my Bravo lights arent working either. A2A Simulations Comanche is what I've been flying. Any ideas? I emailed support but havent heard back. Thanks, Troy Stevens

Good day all, I just plugged in my Sierra TPM for the first time and my computer is not recognizing it (Win11) with FS2020. Tried different ports, but it works fine in XP12. Any thoughts?

I have been trying for 3 weeks to download the available profiles for MSFS2024 but every time get this error message: This page contains the following errors: error on line 3 at column 1: Extra content at the end of the document Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error. Can anyone help ? There is also an option to try new ? which takes you to here: Asset preview detail page displayed when users interact with Canto assets

Brand new out of the box.. not even plugged in yet.. was testing the physical movements of the controls and the parking brake knob is locked in place.. I know it does not pull out very far from videos i have seen.. but this on does not budge.. and I fear if i pull on it any harder it will break.

Hi. The gear leds on the Sierra TPM dont work. Tried the bravo fixes but that didnt work. Any update regarding a fix yet? Thanks

Hi everyone, I just bought a brand‑new Honeycomb Alpha Flight Controls XPC, but I’m running into a serious issue when using it with my Xbox Series X and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. After plugging it in and launching the sim, the system shows a “controller has been disconnected” message every few seconds. At the same time, the LED lights on the Alpha turn off briefly and then come back on, repeating this cycle continuously. During this period, the controller is completely unusable. What’s strange is that after about 10–20 minutes, the problem suddenly disappears and everything works normally. However, the next day when I power on the Xbox again, the iss…

Hello, my Honeycomb Alpha Lite yoke which I purchased directly from the Honeycomb shop is experiencing centering issues. It is not only in flight simulators, but also in joy.cpl. The yoke is offset either to the left or right, depending on the recently used side. However, opposite inputs correct this. Yoke Issue.mp4

The Honeycomb Configurator default profile is missing settings for the push buttons and switches. The bindings for the dials and lights are present. Based on YT videos I thought that the default profile that installs with the configurator has all buttons set up. The configurator version is 2.2. I tried to re-install the configurator. That did not work to bring the complete default profile back. Is there a way to get the default profile back, or is this how version 2.2 installs it? Thnx. This is the link to one of the YT videos using default profile:

When testing the Sierra TPM module via joy.cpl under Windows i am able to see and calibrate Axis Y and Axis Z but i don't get any response on Axis X. Flaps work, Parking brake etc. It is just the X-Axis (Throttle). I changed the USB cable to the original one delivered and i have no Hub between USB port and the Sierra TPM. I changed the USB Port at my Computer. Can this be really a physical hardware defect? I am puzzled..

Hello, After reinstalling Honeycomb Configurator and starting FSX as administrator the Honeycomb Addon does not appear in the addon menu tape so I cant bind the selected settings from the Honeycomb configurator, also the 7 toggle switches are not registered in the windows game controller settings when activating them, please Help Best Regards

Hi, I have just received a Honeycomb Foxtrot Stick and installed the FS2024 profile. It's early days, but thus far I am very happy with it. The one thing I have found annoying though, is that it has a dull click when it passes through the axis centre position. Has anyone else experienced this happening? Any comments appreciated... Cheers, Alan

Good day, I am having issues with the downloading of drivers for the honeycomb alpha light yoke, trying to setup PC system to play MSFS 2024 please advise.
