Honeycomb Yoke Flight Controls reviews

Build quality is unmatched at this price point, the other offerings from CH and Saitek/Logitech don't even come close. The mounting solution is very solid and the unit itself is sturdy and made with high quality materials. When you get a hold of this yoke you can really tell how much thought went into designing it. Super fast dispatch by Mighty Ape as well :)

Great in controlling the aircraft just like in the actual aircraft. Beats other brands I have used.

Been using it for awhile now. Feels really nice.

Bought this to replace my old saitek controls can say that it is a huge upgrade. Much smoother and finer control input and nice weight on the yoke. The switches and magneto switches are a nice touch. Would recommend.

I was very very impressed by this Yoke took me by surprize of how nice it is for this price very glad I bought this now :D Run's super smooth in MSFS 2020 :D

Got it in 2 nights and fantastic product!!

I brought the Honeycomb Alpha Flight controls for use in Xplane 11 and the upcoming Microsoft Flight Simulator . This is a suberb yoke, the build quality and finish makes it well worth the price tag 5 out of 5 stars.

The Honeycomb is a renowned quality addon which the flightsim community is well aware off. The usual Mighty Ape service from ordering to delivery with regular communication about what ‘the monkeys’ have completed ensures there is no question about what stag the delivery process is in. I highly recommend the product and the Mighty Ape service.

This is a game changer , worth every penny

This yoke is incredible. It's so smooth and accurate. It's very well made. I upgraded to this from the Logitech yoke which was ok but the difference is like oil and water. Very well packaged and the crew at Mighty Ape were really on the ball with very fast shipping. Thanks guys.

Honeycomb has done an incredible job in constructing this yoke for us flight sim enthusiasts, without raking our wallets too badly. I've owned and used this yoke for 5 months now prior to writing this review. The body is solid and weighty, the matte black plastic is well-built unlike some of the more glossy/flimsy/squ­ishy competitors offerings, the mount is strong and secures the yoke firmly to your desk, there are no flimsy plastic knobs that feel like they will break as you tighten them, rather, a pair of powder-coated metal C-clamps that grip a flat pad to your desk which mates with the base of the yoke body, and damn is it a sensible mount design. The yoke control axis offer a reasonable amount of resistance yet is smooth through the whole range of motion, and there is no “clunk” as you pass through the center of the pitch range. A full 180° range on the roll axis is very nice to have too. I won't rattle off a list of all features, I'm sure you'll do your research before buying, but I would certainly recommend this yoke based on my own experience. To further support my recommendation, based on the quality and price of this yoke, I have now purchased the Honeycomb Throttle quadrant to pair with this awesome peripheral.

Recently bought this for MSFS 2020 no regrets, brilliant for the price, can’t wait for the bravo throttle quadrant to match!

Very nice yoke, was plug and play, no setting up required for FS2020. Feels very realistic especially in the pitch axis. Posted Wednesday, arrived Victoria Australia Monday.

Great yoke, best value for money you can buy without blowing a hole in your bank account

Received my new Honeycomb Alph from might ape much quicker than expected. It arrived 2 days before the release of MS flight sim 2020 perfect timing ~ love it !

Excellent, solid flight yoke. Pleasure to use.

This new yoke transforms flight sim, so much better than my previous one, and the service from Mighty Ape was outstanding

Far better than my old saitek. Aileron axis is beautiful. Pitch axis is too stiff. Button layout could be improved.

This is the first time owning flight controls and it just makes the flying experience that more realistic for any aviation geek, it is a must for any flight sim person for sure. :)

Very pleased with my purchase of the Honeycomb Alpha Yoke. I got it to upgrade from the Saitek yoke that was annoying because of the huge indent in the middle of the shaft which made it impossible for smooth landings. The Alpha yoke has no indents so very smooth and realistic flying in both GA and jets.Overall quality looks excellent as well. The extra switches and key switch is a nice bonus, but the smooth yoke was enough for me. Delivery was also bang on time from Might Ape evening express.

The Honeycomb Alpha Yoke was well priced and represented good value for money. Delivery by standard post was 4 weeks which is generally inline with the timeline advised. The yoke is well boxed and protected. The yoke itself is very well built and is a solid unit. It has a professional look and feel and performs very well. The range of inputs are varied and provides plenty of options. I am very happy with my purchase.

I love this product. It was relatively inexpensive, but the build quality is fantastic. The packaging is very good, and the unit is easy to mount.

The system was plug 'n play, and worked without any issues. The switches and ignition system is a very nice touch.

I highly recommend this product.

Currently working towards my PPL and got this to use with X Plane 11. Brilliant for realistic feel as well as getting those checklist into the old grey cells. Buttons and switches reinforce those checklists that you need. Yes it is expensive but in terms of functionality and build quality nothing comes close

Havent tested extensively waiting on my bravo but default profile on msfs2020 works well. My only gripe is the usb a to c cable is extremely short. For a $500 price they really could afford to add a 3m cable, I'll need to get a longer cable or an extender to use this more easily.

Brilliant for takin the old jet for a hoon and pulling some slick maneuvers. 5 stars

Enjoying both Alpha Yoke and Bravo Throttle. If used with P3d 5.1 expect to spend plenty of time with the configerator. End results worth it though.

Great Service always deliver on time

Very happy with my purchase. If you’re flying GA planes, you can’t get much better than this!

Purchased this online and 5 minutes later it was ready for pickup in Auckland. The Alpha and the Bravo are essential to flight sim. So happy I made the purchase.

Amazing fast customer service and delivery

Great to use and easy to configure.

Bought this to replace a broken Saitek unit and this is a far superior yoke. More realistic feel, more features, solid build. Highly recommended.

The honeycomb alpha yoke is a superbly made very study unit that goes so well with your flight sim. I had an old saitek yoke and there is no comparison anymore. Cant wait for my Bravo to arrive.

Most accurate and real yoke

The yolk is excellent giving a feeling of a real aircraft control. Far better than any joystick. The only fault is the mounting clamps hanging too low under the desk. The suction base is not reliable.

Item as described, posted and received in Sydney a few days later to my PO Box. Well done.

Great

I have been waiting for this for 20 years. If you can afford one – buy it, you wont be sorry

Great controller for Xplane11

Nice and accurate, precise, and a solid build quality. Switches are very handy and the whole thing looks slick! Great product.

Yes this is as good as they say, better even sublime. Bought here because it was on special. Fast delivery. My old CH Yolk is a complete embarrassment compared to this.

To come in between the el cheapo yokes to the very expensive ones, Honeycomb have done a great job with this medium priced yoke. Handles well!

Mighty Ape: very fast delivery, very supportive staff Honeycomb Alpha: Flying has become very immersive with this new gear for MSFS 2020. It is a good product, well calibrated out of the box, finishing is superb. One issue with these controllers are , its buttons are always in an on state which can interfere with other inputs such as heading dial and altitude dials (the reason for 4 ⭐️) . The fix for now is to use FSUIPC7 and change the buttons to momentary on/off. This has helped me for now till future updates. Recommend: Yes I do recommend getting honeycomb alpha flight yoke.

My first honeycomb product and I’m very impressed with the build quality. Using it with flight simulator 2020 and the handling is impeccable.

The look, the feel, the quality all far exceeded my expectations! HC Alpha by far beats anything competition wise that's thrown at it, it may be a bit more pricey than the Logitech option but you get what you pay for TRUST ME!

Easy & flexible configuration. Good feel. Way better than keyboard/joystick.

This is by far the best yoke available. Unlike others, it has 90 degree range of movement, feels smooth and has ample switch assignments.

An excellent product. No competitor in it's price range both for quality and features. A superb peace of engineering.

The Honeycomb yoke is working seamlessly with Microsoft flightsimulator 2020. It was recognised immediately and the presets are all spot on. A great price too!

The best yoke I have had. Precise, in action with basically no dead zone. For an avis flightsimmer well worth the money for me

Well worth the money, no issues at all

This yoke is fantastic quality, very smooth movement and gives great control of the aircraft. The buttons and switches add realism, and I have been really grateful how easy it is to remove and tuck away when I'm not using it.

The only downside is the cost!

The Honeycomb Alpha is as close to a real life aircraft yoke I have experienced in a simulator.

Very happy with this feels like the real thing
