Shop Honeycomb flight simulator controls for general aviation, commercial aircraft and complete home cockpit setups. Honeycomb is best known for its Alpha Flight Controls yoke and Bravo Throttle Quadrant, combining dedicated flight controls with switches, autopilot functions and configurable engine controls.
Honeycomb flight simulator hardware
Honeycomb hardware is designed around the controls you interact with constantly during a flight. Instead of concentrating on decorative cockpit elements, the range focuses on yokes, throttles and aviation controllers that directly affect how you fly the aircraft.
This makes Honeycomb suitable for new flight sim setups as well as more developed cockpits where you want to replace keyboard and mouse inputs with dedicated controls.
Compare Honeycomb flight controls
The Alpha and Bravo serve very different roles, while the Bravo Lite offers another option for pilots who want throttle control without necessarily needing the full Bravo configuration.
| Product | Type | Best for | Main function |
|---|---|---|---|
| Honeycomb Alpha Flight Controls | Flight simulator yoke | General aviation | Pitch, roll and integrated cockpit switches |
| Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant | Throttle quadrant | GA and commercial aircraft | Configurable engine, flap, spoiler and autopilot controls |
| Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant Lite | Throttle quadrant | More compact throttle setups | Dedicated aircraft power and engine control |
Honeycomb Alpha Flight Controls
The Honeycomb Alpha Flight Controls is a dedicated flight simulator yoke with 180-degree rotation and an integrated switch panel. The yoke uses a self-centring mechanism without a pronounced centre detent, helping create smoother pitch and roll inputs.
The integrated master, alternator, avionics, lighting and ignition controls are particularly useful for general aviation flying because several frequently used cockpit functions can be moved away from your keyboard.
Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant
The Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant is the more versatile option when you regularly switch between different aircraft types. Its configurable lever system can be adapted for general aviation as well as multi-engine commercial aircraft.
It also combines throttle controls with an autopilot panel, annunciator lights and landing gear controls, reducing the number of separate devices needed on your desk or cockpit.
Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant Lite
The Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant Lite is aimed at pilots who want dedicated throttle control in a simpler configuration.
It can be a logical option when engine control is the priority but you do not need every integrated cockpit function offered by the standard Bravo.
Alpha vs Bravo: which Honeycomb product do you need?
Alpha and Bravo are not direct alternatives. The Alpha controls the aircraft's pitch and roll through a yoke, while the Bravo handles engine power and several secondary cockpit functions.
Start with Alpha if
You currently fly with a keyboard, gamepad or basic controller and want a dedicated yoke for general aviation.
Add Bravo if
You want physical throttle, propeller, mixture, flap, spoiler, landing gear and autopilot interaction, depending on your aircraft configuration.
Use Alpha and Bravo together if
You want a more complete desktop cockpit with dedicated primary controls and engine controls. This combination is especially logical for GA and multi-engine simulator setups.
Honeycomb for general aviation
Honeycomb is particularly strong for general aviation because the Alpha reproduces a conventional yoke workflow while the Bravo can be configured for throttle, propeller and mixture control.

Honeycomb for airliners and multi-engine aircraft
The Bravo's configurable levers make it suitable for more than single-engine GA. Multi-engine layouts can be created for aircraft where several throttle levers, flaps and spoilers are required.
You can compare other engine-control solutions in our throttle quadrants collection.
How we select Honeycomb flight controls
We evaluate flight simulator controls based on how much meaningful cockpit interaction they replace and how naturally they fit into a complete simulator.
Control feel
For yokes, smooth movement, centring behaviour and usable travel are more important than simply having a large number of buttons.
Aircraft versatility
For throttle hardware, we consider whether the device can realistically support the aircraft types it is intended for, from single-engine GA to multi-engine aircraft.
Cockpit integration
Additional switches and autopilot functions are useful when they reduce keyboard interaction without making the setup unnecessarily complicated.
Frequently asked questions about Honeycomb
What is Honeycomb Alpha Flight Controls?
It is a dedicated flight simulator yoke with 180-degree rotation, integrated switches and controls designed primarily around conventional aircraft cockpit operation.
What does the Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant control?
The Bravo can be configured for engine power and additional functions such as propeller, mixture, flaps, spoilers, landing gear and autopilot operation.
Can I use Honeycomb Alpha without Bravo?
Yes. They are separate devices. Alpha handles primary yoke control, while Bravo adds dedicated engine and secondary cockpit controls.
Can I combine Honeycomb Alpha and Bravo?
Yes. They complement each other and create a much more complete flight control setup when used together.
Is Honeycomb suitable for general aviation?
Yes. The Alpha yoke and configurable Bravo controls make the ecosystem particularly suitable for single-engine and multi-engine GA aircraft.
