- This video will teach you how to setup the following Honeycomb Bravo Throttle configurations for Microsoft Flight Simulator:
1. Twin Engine GA Aircraft (defualt).
2. Complex Single Engine
3. Basic Single Engine
4. 4 Engine Jet
5. 2 Engine Jet
As of Flight Sim version 5 you do not need to check “reverse axis” on the levers. By default, the axis works as is now. Also when binding switches (including lever detents) now you need to flip the switch on for the input to be sensed, but then turn the switch off before validating it, or the validation will freeze. Additionally, when testing a switch the fields don’t turn white and dark anymore, but they will work.
“Flaps Axis (-100 to 100)” is called “Flaps Axis” now. - Ігри

Why are all gear Lever position up before binding. Shouldn't they be on down position?
@@AtanasDimitrov954RR it doesn’t matter.
You might already know this, but for anyone reading the comments Asobo added action types for button presses in the options. So if you want the thrust reversers to properly stow when you’re done using them, setup both the Throttle Decrease and the Throttle Cut command with the same reverser. Keep Throttle Decrease as the default “on press” action, but change Throttle Cut to “on release”. Now when you stow the reversers on the Bravo, they’ll actually stow properly in the aircraft and you don’t have to use the detent button on the Bravo.
I had not noticed this, when did this change happen? It works very well.
im trying to do what you just said but I'm soo confused can you please make a video?
Works great. Thanks for sharing.
Not sure i follow this exactly? Are we keeping throttle decrease as the actual lever itself still? And then using the detent for throttle cut but on release?
Thanks
Excellent tutorial! I just got my Honeycomb Throttle Quadrant yesterday and this video is exactly what I needed to watch. Hope to see more videos from your channel. Have a Happy New Year!
Thank you so much for taking the time to upload this. I really appreciate the simplicity and step by step approach.
You are one of the best U tube bloggers out there when it comes to presenting a "How to do" type of scenario especially when it comes to the rather complex pieces of flight sim apparatus. I would like to thank you for spending your time helping me and many others out there in the flight sim community. It is truly appreciated and please keep up the good work.
Excellent video! Well articulated, no dead speak, no ego, excellent narration; Perfect tutorial!!!
This was exactly what I was looking for on how to configure the Bravo Quadrant. Bonus points for matching the configurations as described in the TQ manual. Thank you!
Thanks a million for your videos. They greatly expedited setup. Who know where I would be without these tutorials? Very well done.
You, my friend, are a gentleman and a scholar. Thanks so much for putting this video together! Helped out a TON haha
thank you so much for making this video, I have been struggling for weeks to set up the different types of aircraft throttle configurations and nearly gave up... frustration level too high to manage with everything else going on. You have reinvigorated my quest to master this awesome piece of kit! thank you again!
I can't thank you enough for this video! I was about to give up until I saw your tutorial ..... PLEASE post more! Thanks!
Many thanks to you!! Neither my #1, nor my #2 were working. Watching your bug video and this one was everything I needed to clear up the issue and then bind all setting in the Bravo Quadrant. I've spent a couple of hours running all acft configurations this morning to test out. 100% I love it when people put out quality videos with current and correct information. Thanks again, Rmag!
Thank you so very much! I was really struggling with the Bravo configurations. This was a perfect, simple, tutorial. As a retired pilot I mainly want to fly and not diddle with the configurations. You’re the greatest!
Great video! After plug & play with the Alpha Yoke I was surprised to see the difference with the Bravo. But after your videos and realizing the different configuration options it became obvious why it needs some setting up. Your video made me like the configuration process!
One of the most helpful videos I’ve seen in a long time…
Thank you very much for your video. I was waiting for a video like this to explain in details how to configure the Throttle. THANK YOU!
Got my Throttle a few days ago and really appreciate this.
Thank you
Thanks Rmag! Just got the yoke and throttle quadrant and this was the perfect video to get me set up and flying!
My Honeycomb Bravo just arrived and I'm in the process of setting up my profiles now. I'm sure there will be some hiccups here and there with the updates that have dropped since, but I've watched every single one of your videos and I think I'm pretty prepared to get through any issues that come up. Thank you so much for this series!!
As a beginner to MSFS this is brilliant Finally a tutorial that is in laments terms thankyou Rmag now for delivery of my Gear
man this is the best tutorial for honeycomb ever, for me even worked on xbox 3 years later, thanks a lot :)
Thank you for this! I opened my Alpha and Bravo kits and felt so overwhelmed.😂 This gives me hope in figuring this sim out.
You Saved my marriage, Thankyou that Bug nearly got me!
Absolutely amazing tutorial.. even I could follow it without issue! Thank you again good sir!!
I recently purchased MSFS 2020 and the Honeycomb Alpha and Bravo. This is my first foray into the PC flight sim world. Your instructions on the five configurations was very good. I found for the 4-engine jet throttle does not need to be selected to work correctly. I did have to select reverse for the speed brake. When assigning the throttle decrease I had to move it out of the detent to be able to validate. I also had issue with getting the flaps to properly operate. Now I just have to try flying a 4-engine jet. For the Cessna sims I tried, it was okay. The G1000 was pretty close to true to life that I am used to.
Thank you for the time creating this.
Thank you for an excellent walk through of setting up all the throttle configurations.
I basically copied your Bravo switch assignments, they sounded good to me! Thank for the great video!
God bless you sir. I just got mine today and was excited then disappointed when it didn't work. Now I know what to do. Awesome tutorial. Thank you so much.
Great video. The reverse axis ticks are the opposite in latest version of MSFS but other than that spot on. Thanks for putting it together.
Just got mine and this helped. Thanks. I would also add that when coming out of reverse with the jets, bring your reversers out, then a quick advance of the throttles with bring it out of reverse also. Little better than using engine cutoff.
Good lord, I got my Bravo a few days ago after 6 months of waiting and I thought I had figured it all out, I also installed spad.next to start setting up more complex mapping etc.
Then I watched this video and I realized there's a frigging detent if you push the levers all the way down! I would have never guessed!
You've set me up for success, thank you for such an educational video!
you sir, are a godsend! thank you so much for doing this. that bug was driving me crazy.
Brilliant, sir! Thank you AGAIN...your videos have saved all of us so much time...
Thank you so much for this video. Finally someone explaining how to program this so I understand it. Thank you again!
Bravo on the explanation of the Bravo Throttle Quadrant. Well done
I don’t ever leave reviews or thumbs up but you did an amazing job. I did have to play the video at half speed but thank you
Great video. Well presented and completely necessary to set up the Bravo throttle. Thank you sir!
I'm a long time simmer and I just picked up an Alpha and a Beta. Thank you so much for putting in the time and effort to produce your instruction videos for this equipment. You made my life, and enjoyment of this hobby, much easier! You're an excellent instructor!
*bravo
Thank you so much for posting this! Straight to the point with the right info... New Sub!
Thank you for this - very useful and informative, as was the Mixture 2 one
Can’t thank you enough for taking the time to do this!
Brilliant, brilliant man! Thanks for teaching me Master.
Thanks so much for making and posting this video. Very, Very helpful. Previously, I was losing my mind.
simply the best bravo set up on youtube
Thanks for putting this together. I was dreading setup on my soon to arrive Bravo!
Thanks for this. Got it for Christmas and keen to get it set up properly.
Thank you for this video. Made set up very simple for my new Bravo Throttle.
Awesome info and excellent presentation! Thank you so much!
Love the video...Your calm voice...Thank you very much
Big Thanks...I am about setup my controls today fresh in the mail.
Just set mine up. That you for making this video. A huge help.
Thank you so much! Happy flying
Thanks you very much for this video. And the reference to the "bug video" as it helped me solve it for me.
On a side note, I did not keep the throttle, propeller and mixture axis 1 on the single engine GA profiles, but actually swiched the axis to the general ones (without number) this way I got a "default" profile that would almost always work ;)
Good thinking.
You are the real MVP.
WOW you made that so easy to understand. THANK YOU!
Absolutely awesome video. Wish I could give it 100 thumbs up!
thank you sooo much for making this video, really helped me out:)
Excellent! thank you for posting, make sense of everything
Thanks heaps Rmag, great video!
Thank you. This saved my sanity. I didn’t have time to figure out all this myself. I did have an issue with getting the flap lever to work but I figured it out.
How did you do this? Mine is not working
@@luke6575 choose flap axis instead of of the -100 to 100. If it doesn’t work comment or msg and I’ll look at my settings.
Great helpful Vid, clear and easy to understand.. Thankyou very much.
Great , many thanks and to lucky on the reverser info.
Good idea on using those extra toggle switches when you already have the Alpha Yoke!
Just got a honeycomb for Christmas and needed this to set it up thanks!
Merry Christmas!
@@RMAG merry Christmas
Thank you so much, this fixed my problem!!
Thank you this was helpful for the second time!
thank you so much for this awesome tutorial!
Great Video man! Thanks for the help!
THIS WAS SOOOOOOOOO HELPFUL!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!
Excellent video my throttle arrives tomorrow this will help a lot.
Awesome! Where did you order from?
@@JohnJonesRocketCity I'm in Australia and I Pre-Ordered from a company here called the Gamesmen
Really good guide thanks for doing this. One thing to be aware of and maybe worth adding a note in the description.... The Flaps axis can behave strangely with the auto assist for takeoff & landing being enabled it will automatically reset the flaps position and override the controller input. Its easy enough to disable from the Assist Options but looks like the controller or binding is bugged/broken when you first see it unless you're expecting it.
oh man, thanks for this comment!
thanks so much..this video was a life saver !!!
Firstly, I want to say this is an amazing video thank you! I think It is amazing that they are able and willing to offer such quality and application at this price, while Saitek/Logitech was offering "toys" with substandard potentiometers and materials. In order to have an equivalent logitech/saitek setup you would need: 2 throttle quadrants, 1 flight switch panel, and1 multi-panel for a grand total of $368. Granted some of their panels have digital readout it is difficult to factor in how that affects the price. Nevertheless, I still think Honeycomb Aeronautical deserves a round of applause.
yup owned Logitech and CH, both are junk.
Thank you Captain, for the detail explanation …. At last I’m going to fly ✈️
Awesome man. Thank you!
Hi @Rmag,
Great video! Also used it as a starting point to configure my Bravo. But I have another recommendation. Instead of creating single engine profiles by assigning throttle axis 1, propeller axis 1 and mixture axis 1, I recommend to assign the general throttle axis, propeller axis and mixture axis in this profile. By doing so this profile will work for a single engine but it will also work for a 2, 3 or whatever engine aircraft. You can anyway not create a specific profile for a 3 or more engine prop aircraft since you only have pairs of levers.
So beside the 2 and 4 jet engine profiles I have
- 1/X Engine TPM (e.g. Bonanza)
- 1/X Engine TM (e.g. C172)
- 1/X Engine T (e.g. Icon)
- 2 Engine TPM (e.g. Baron)
- 2 Engine T (e.g. DA62)
Did I miss some? The first profile works as default for all props without having to change the levers.
Happy virtual flying!
Thank you soooo much for this video sir.it was amazed and really help me a lot.
Very thorough. Thank you
Great Video! Thanks for the info.
Thank you. This was very helpful.
Amazing tutorial!! Thank you very much for this! However, I thought I would give you a tip I discovered while watching this. You don't need to use the throttle CUT in order to get the reversers back in. Open reversers when you need them, push the switches back to normal operation, then simply move the respective throttle forward in the slightest the the buckets will close in the sim.
I was aware of that but you have to 1. Flip your reverser levers off 2: push throttles toward then back. Versus with the cutoffs you go reverse then pull the throttles all the way back to stop. As a pilot pulling back on throttles is more natural then the flip/jiggle required above.
After you pull back through the detent then you can reset your reverser levers at your leisure.
@@RMAG Ah... that's a good point too
thank you so much for this. it really helped me.
Thank you very much! Should have mine by 2/15/21
Awesome video, thank you
Thanks for this! Subscribed!
So helpful...thank you!
Fantastic Video. Thank you.
Excellent!!! Thank you so much.
Awesome!! Many thanks!
I can't wait to get one of these
Well I got one! Didn't think it'd be so soon lol Thanks for the tutorial!
If you assign throttle cut to the same button as throttle decrease but change action type to" on release " instead of "on press " the thrust reverse work more realistically but you need to check that the action was saved as on release because it usually saves as on press the first time you do it
Legend thank you!!
First of all thank you for taking the time to pull together and share. I just acquired the Bravo..and the information you provided helped remove the potential frustration and enabled me to get up and running quickly. One thing I did differently after thinking about your setup; specifically going from the complex single engine to the basic single engine i.e. I kept the mixture lever in the third from the left position, and simply took out the blue prop lever from the second position...the thinking was this way if I switch from a basic to a complex single aircraft, I simply need to add the blue lever in its place. I appreciate that I may by splitting hairs here. My question is whether I am missing something...or is it simply a matter of preference. Thanks again..
I was thinking the same thing and can't see any issues with doing this.
Great tutorial!
Good Job, Thank you
Nice, thanks a lot!
For my single engines, I actually shift the throttle one to the right. So I'm using lever 2 3 and 4 (left to right). And I add the comercial Flaps handle on the lever 6 (far right). Just for that finer/better contorl of flaps in some aircraft.
Great video
Amazing!!! Thanks!!!
