Honeycomb Alpha Flight Controls XPC | Aviation-Quality Yoke & Switch Panel for Flight Simulators | Compatible with Xbox One, Series S&X and PC

I’ve been using the Alpha XPC for over a month now and I’m very pleased. Compared to the Saitek (now Logitech) Pro Flight I used before, this has a much smoother action. The Hall effect sensors allow precise control.

Good quality yoke, ideal for starting out sim flying. Plenty of online reviews for this (though this is the upgraded new version with hall sensors, I’m told it makes it better but I’ve not tried the original alpha to compare). Overall I like it. For the price I think it’s worth choosing. If you are like me, wanting something that won’t disappoint but don’t won’t to spend silly money on something for just a casual hobby, there isn’t much to rival it. Only downside is the inconsistency between the aileron (roll) resistance and the elevator movements of the yoke (the roll is too light). But, every plane is different, and you’ll probably even be using it in planes with a stick IRL rather than yoke from time to time, so I don’t think it’s a big negative.

None of the buttons work

I bought this controller to use on my Xbox Series X as it said on the description that it was the Xbox compatible version, when the item arrived it did not say anything about it being compatible with Xbox, when I opened the package it was evident this was the PC only version as it did not have the Xbox button next to the engine start switch and also does not have the Xbox switch on the rear of the controller. The controller itself looks well made and it comes well packaged, just a shame I can’t use it!

The seller is sending Windows and Mac Gen 1 versions of the product NOT Xbox compatible! If you are new to Honeycomb Flight Sim equipment note that there are 2 versions. Version 1 has a curved honeycomb dash and is compatible with PC and Mac and retails around £150 gbp. Version 2 is compatible with Xbox series S/X aswell as PC, it also has a square honeycomb dash and more importantly a button on the back that allows you to switch between Xbox and PC.

Honeycomb es calidad...en mi caso tuve que devolverlo porque este modelo en concreto es más caro y no necesito que sea xpc....Amazon como siempre un na maravilla en el reembolso, entrega y comunicación....no lo pude abrir y ver para poder hacer la devolución,pero el otro que si me sirve que es igual salvando los botones de Xbox...ya os digo que es... increíble producto.

Excellent yoke for flight simulator/s. My only complaint is that the sticky pad that Honeycomb uses to secure the yoke is not nearly as secure as I would like, and it allows some degree of wiggle to take place. A better solution might have been to use a thin, industrial Velcro to hold it in place. That said, I use it frequently with my simulator setup.

Ottimo funziona tutto

Man braucht mörderische Kraft, um das Steuerhorn ganz reinzudrücken oder rauszuziehen, so wie bei meiner Cessna 172 wenn sie nicht ausgetrimmt ist. Natürlich fehlen noch mehrere Doppeldrehknöpfe für Frequenzeinstellungen und Drehknöpfe für Kurseinstellungen. Die obere Fläche hätten sie auch plan machen können, damit man eine Tastatur draufstellen kann - so musste ich mit erst ein Ablagebrettchen basteln. Und einen Handwippschalter wie am Thrustmaster-Schubhebel (TWCS-Throttle, HOTAS) hätte ich auch gerne noch auf der rechten Seite, damit ich keine separeten Pedale brauche. - HALLO Herr Honeycomb, ich hoffe Sie lesen das hier mit.
