General hardware (No specific - or mixed - simulator/addon)

Check out my PC. It’s a silly one, I agree, I build it for fun and because I sit behind it 12 hours a day and love to see how things work. But check out the fans. There are two for the GPU, three for the CPU (total overkill but I overclock like a lunatic), one in the PSU and two small ones that cool bits of the mother board. These are needed because contrary to what many people think a completely open case is very bad for cooling as you have no air flow. So that’s 8 fans that are cooling my machine. As said a silly machine but in almost every PC intended for gaming you will find at least 5 rather large fans. Now check out your laptop. No way 5 of those big fa…

Hi all, just got the Echo Aviation Controller and I use it with the PMDG 737 in MSFS 2024. During cruise I put the controller away and after a period it switches off. Is there anything I can do to prevent that (except clicking a button every x minutes)? Thanks! Erik

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a Honeycomb Echo Aviation Controller profile for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. Does anyone have one they can share or point me to? Would really appreciate it! Thanks in advance! ✈️

I have tried everything, every download out there, every solution presented on this forum that I can find and I still cannot get the lights to come on the Bravo using MSFS 2024 Steam version. I can use the Tree to test them and they do work, jut not while on any game APP

Hello everyone, so a few days ago I received my Echo Aviation Controller and I really only want to use it for MSFS2020 at the moment. As one might expect, the controller was detected instantly by the simulator but with no assigned controls to it. I have somehow managed to bind the basic controls and I’m somewhat able to fly with it but it still needs a ton of tweaks till it’s going to work at it's full potential. Does anyone have any ideas on how to do the bindings properly? I’m struggling quite a bit with it and I’m unable to find anything resources for setting up the echo controller with MSFS2020. Any help would be greatly appr…

Hello! Could someone assist me where to install the profiles provided from Honeycomb for the ECHO AVIATION CONTROLLER, please? Thank you!

It seems that the downloadable controller profiles for Echo on MSFS24 from Honeycombs website is corrupted (all of them). When i try to import i got error message that says something is wrong. And i'm not so familar to make all of the bindings by myself.

Did anyone ever try to remove the springs on the Charlie Rudder Pedal? I tried to tear down the unit but I cant seem to remove the shell. I'd like to remove the springs for Helicopter aircraft

The Honeycomb drawing collection has been updated with the addition of the Sierra Throttle :

Hey everyone, Recently stumbled upon FSElite’s coverage of the Rowsfire A107 A320pro/A320 MAX Light Overhead Panel (OVH) by MECHDIY—definitely caught my eye! The specs mention backlit controls, a metal housing, and tactile switches, which sound like solid features for simming. Has anyone here picked one up yet? I’m curious to hear real-world thoughts: How’s the build quality? Do the switches feel responsive? Does the backlighting enhance the immersion, and is it easy to integrate with popular sim platforms (like MSFS or X-Plane)? From what I saw, the price point looks pretty competitive for the features—wondering if it lives up to the hype. Let me know your experiences! T…

As I read, already 2021 a manual für the Honeycomb configurator was requested. But it was mentionned to look at the Tutorial Videos. These Videos are verry confusing because mixing Windows and Apple in the same Video. And also mixing different Flytsim Software as X-Plane, 2020, and others. Therefore I had no succes to get it working. Ich habe gelesen, dass bereits 2021 ein User nach einem Manual für den Honeycomb Configurator gefragt hat. Damals wurde auf die Tutorial Videos verwiesen. Diese sind aber sehr unklar, da im gleichen Video jeweils über 2 verschiedene Betriebssysteme gesprochen wird. Und ausserdem gleichzeitig diverse Varianten von Flugsimulator Pr…

Hello everyone, I really love the honeycomb bravo, but there is one issue that has so far plagued 2 units. I've been experiencing a really annoying jitter that has plagued my first unit, and even my second unit straight from the box. The jitter happens along all axis. If the raw value of the axis is not either 1023 or 0, it will jitter with a variance of up to 1-3 when moved, then snap to a stable value after 5 seconds. If 1 axis is moved, all axis will do this behavior if not at 1023 or 0. This is data from the Windows calibrator. The raw value change is small however noticeable and quite violent when in the sim. This issue did not immediately happen with…

Hi folks! I've just set up my new Honeycomb Alpha and Bravo for MSFS24, but I'm experiencing issues with the Increase/Decrease rotary dial on the Autopilot controls section at the top of the unit (corresponding to buttons 13 and 14). Suffice to say, it doesn't work very well at all. I'm wondering if my experience with it is similar to what you're all experiencing, or if my rotary controller is potentially malfunctioning. Another post on Reddit suggests that it works better at slower rotations, but that isn't my experience. If you can view my attached video, you'll notice it fails to receive input within rotations ~1/2 second between each other. …

Hello, I recently purchased a Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant from an eBay reseller marketing the unit as open box, used, but fully functional. It arrived and when I tried to plug it in, no lights turned on and it was not detected by my PC. I tried different ports, cables, even another computer, all showed no signs of life on the throttle or the computer. I think I'm going to return it and get a refund but I wanted to take a crack at fixing it first. I'm decent with electronics, I've repaired a few before but usually just swapping parts and a little soldering. I'd like to troubleshoot this unit, but I need help. Usually I can find websites or vi…

so i just got the FlightSim Studio - B727 Passenger and when i go in to flight and start the flight everything is but then every thing is off when move throttle up it goes back down and i cant use the yoke is unresponsive and the one of gauges is pointed to left even know im not in the air is and i have restarted my computer and reinstalled the addon 2 times and removed other addons but that has not changed anything so whet else can i do to fix this and hear is a video of what has Microsoft Flight Simulator 2025-06-02 14-38-09.mp4 Microsoft Flight Simulator 2025-06-02 14-38-09.mp4 Microsoft Flight Simulator 2025-06-02 14-38-09.mp4

Hello all, Is there someone who knows how to communicate with the bravo using standalone c# code? The BetterBravoLight is relying on MSFS and my project needs the ability to control the LEDs outside any simulator context. Thanks in advance

Hi, Seems there has been talk about the reverse thrust lever wiring being too tight and it breaks, lever 1 reverse thrust lever does not work as it has got the dreaded broken wire which I think is a design floor and these wires you should be able to source.

Hi, I just got a Honeycomb Bravo yesterday, and am loving it, but noticed a problem with it. When moving any axis, all the axes start to jitter for about 5 seconds, then stop. (See video) This causes issues in the simulator as the throttle keeps moving even when I take my hand off it. Is this normal? If it is, is there anything I can do on the software side to help? Recording 2025-05-10 164441.mp4

My yoke had a midpoint drift and a lateral change when pulling back and forth after doing a manual calibration. The solution is to disassemble, tighten all the screws that can be seen, and then plug the wire to do manual calibration, note that after calibrating the right and left axes, when you need to calibrate the front and rear axes, do not move the external handle, but push the internal slider back and forth, so that can get normal and stable calibration results. Hope that helps.

I received my Honeycomb Alpha a few days ago. The elevator control works fine, although quite hard. However, when moving the yoke forward or backward, there is a rubbing, "scrub" sound. After 3 days of use from purchase, this has not changed. Is there a way to fix this without voiding the warranty? Regards, Jacek

I have a Honeycomb Bravo that suffered from the chronic broken wires connecting the throttle lever reverser arms and buttons. A local electronics vendor repaired the wires for me this week and I reassembled the unit without any issues. After doing so, throttles 3 and 4 (the center levers, 1-6 from left to right) are no longer aligned. At 0% and 100% they match up, but between 0% and 100% they respond at different rates, as if one lever is faster below 50% and the other lever is faster above 50%. In other words, if both throttles are aligned at 25% of their physical travel, engine 1 will be at 35% but engine 2 will be at 15%; at 75% physical position engine 1 w…

Hello, I am a pilot that is very new to the simulator space. I recently got the new Honeycomb Charlie rudder pedals and while I was hitting the brakes on a landing the unit slipped on my carpet and the USB connection on the back hit my wall. The USB connector on the PCB lifted and damaged a few of the traces so I likely need a new PCB. I'm certainly willing to buy a new PCB and replace it as it looks simple enough, but the support form on Honeycomb's website seems broken. It doesn't give any indication that the information went through. Does anyone know of a way to get in touch with them to order replacement components? Email, phone, etc. …

Helllo! When honeycomb XL Clamps will be available?

Dear community members, dear AEROSOFT team! Sadly, today, I had to return the third Aerosoft Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant because the trim wheel was not working properly again (for the third time). In this thread (https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/167653-testing-the-honeycomb-bravo-throttle-trimwheel-resolution/) it says: "Each full rotation must trigger around 50 pulses per revolution." My hardware samples were far off that value (~5 to max. 15 impulses, uneven in each direction, unequal distance per direction, different per each hardware sample). Here is a video of my second BTQ doing a full revolution played …
